Variable¶

class paddle.static. Variable ( block, type=<VarType.LOD_TENSOR: 7>, name=None, shape=None, dtype=None, lod_level=None, capacity=None, persistable=None, error_clip=None, stop_gradient=False, is_data=False, need_check_feed=False, belong_to_optimizer=False, **kwargs ) [source]

Notes

The constructor of Variable should not be invoked directly.

In Static Graph Mode: Please use ** Block.create_var ** to create a Static variable which has no data until being feed.

In Dygraph Mode: Please use ** to_tensor ** to create a dygraph variable with real data.

In Fluid, every input and output of an OP is a variable. In most cases, variables are used for holding different kinds of data or training labels. A variable belongs to a Block . All variable has its own name and two variables in different Block could have the same name.

There are many kinds of variables. Each kind of them has its own attributes and usages. Please refer to the framework.proto for details.

Most of a Variable’s member variables can be set to be None. It mean it is not available or will be specified later.

Examples

In Static Graph Mode:

           >>> import paddle.base as base
>>> cur_program = base.Program()
>>> cur_block = cur_program.current_block()
>>> new_variable = cur_block.create_var(name="X",
...                                     shape=[-1, 23, 48],
...                                     dtype='float32')

          

In Dygraph Mode:

           >>> import paddle.base as base
>>> import numpy as np
>>> import paddle

>>> with base.dygraph.guard():
...     new_variable = paddle.to_tensor(np.arange(10))

          

detach ( ) detach¶

Returns a new Variable, detached from the current graph. It will share data with origin Variable and without tensor copy. In addition, the detached Variable doesn’t provide gradient propagation.

Returns: ( Variable | dtype is same as current Variable), The detached Variable.

Examples

             >>> import paddle

>>> paddle.enable_static()

>>> # create a static Variable
>>> x = paddle.static.data(name='x', shape=[3, 2, 1])

>>> # create a detached Variable
>>> y = x.detach()

numpy ( ) numpy¶

Notes:: This API is ONLY available in Dygraph mode

Returns a numpy array shows the value of current Variable

Returns: The numpy value of current Variable.
Return type: ndarray

Returns type:: ndarray: dtype is same as current Variable

Examples

             >>> import paddle.base as base
>>> from paddle.nn import Linear
>>> import numpy as np

>>> data = np.random.uniform(-1, 1, [30, 10, 32]).astype('float32')
>>> with base.dygraph.guard():
...     linear = Linear(32, 64)
...     data = paddle.to_tensor(data)
...     x = linear(data)
...     print(x.numpy())

            

backward ( retain_graph=False ) backward¶

Notes:: This API is ONLY available in Dygraph mode

Run backward of current Graph which starts from current Tensor.

Parameters: retain_graph (bool, optional) – If False, the graph used to compute grads will be freed. If you would like to add more ops to the built graph after calling this method( backward ), set the parameter retain_graph to True, then the grads will be retained. Thus, setting it to False is much more memory-efficient. Defaults to False.
Returns: None
Return type: NoneType

Examples

             >>> import numpy as np
>>> import paddle
>>> paddle.disable_static()

>>> x = np.ones([2, 2], np.float32)
>>> inputs = []
>>> for _ in range(10):
...     tmp = paddle.to_tensor(x)
...     # if we don't set tmp's stop_gradient as False then, all path to loss will has no gradient since
...     # there is no one need gradient on it.
...     tmp.stop_gradient=False

dist ( y, p=2, name=None ) dist¶

Returns the p-norm of (x - y). It is not a norm in a strict sense, only as a measure of distance. The shapes of x and y must be broadcastable. The definition is as follows, for details, please refer to the Introduction to Tensor:

Each input has at least one dimension.
Match the two input dimensions from back to front, the dimension sizes must either be equal, one of them is 1, or one of them does not exist.

Where, z = x - y, the shapes of x and y are broadcastable, then the shape of z can be obtained as follows:

1. If the number of dimensions of x and y are not equal, prepend 1 to the dimensions of the tensor with fewer dimensions.

For example, The shape of x is [8, 1, 6, 1], the shape of y is [7, 1, 5], prepend 1 to the dimension of y.

x (4-D Tensor): 8 x 1 x 6 x 1

y (4-D Tensor): 1 x 7 x 1 x 5

2. Determine the size of each dimension of the output z: choose the maximum value from the two input dimensions.

z (4-D Tensor): 8 x 7 x 6 x 5

If the number of dimensions of the two inputs are the same, the size of the output can be directly determined in step 2. When p takes different values, the norm formula is as follows:

When p = 0, defining $0^0=0$, the zero-norm of z is simply the number of non-zero elements of z.

\[\begin{split}||z||_{0}=\lim_{p \\rightarrow 0}\sum_{i=1}^{m}|z_i|^{p}\end{split}\]

When p = inf, the inf-norm of z is the maximum element of the absolute value of z.

\[||z||_\infty=\max_i |z_i|\]

When p = -inf, the negative-inf-norm of z is the minimum element of the absolute value of z.

\[||z||_{-\infty}=\min_i |z_i|\]

Otherwise, the p-norm of z follows the formula,

\[\begin{split}||z||_{p}=(\sum_{i=1}^{m}|z_i|^p)^{\\frac{1}{p}}\end{split}\]

Parameters

x (Tensor) – 1-D to 6-D Tensor, its data type is bfloat16, float16, float32 or float64.
y (Tensor) – 1-D to 6-D Tensor, its data type is bfloat16, float16, float32 or float64.

name (str, optional) – The default value is None. Normally there is no need for user to set this property. For more information, please refer to Name.

histogramdd ( bins=10, ranges=None, density=False, weights=None, name=None ) histogramdd¶

Computes a multi-dimensional histogram of the values in a tensor.

Interprets the elements of an input tensor whose innermost dimension has size N as a collection of N-dimensional points. Maps each of the points into a set of N-dimensional bins and returns the number of points (or total weight) in each bin.

input x must be a tensor with at least 2 dimensions. If input has shape (M, N), each of its M rows defines a point in N-dimensional space. If input has three or more dimensions, all but the last dimension are flattened.

Each dimension is independently associated with its own strictly increasing sequence of bin edges. Bin edges may be specified explicitly by passing a sequence of 1D tensors. Alternatively, bin edges may be constructed automatically by passing a sequence of integers specifying the number of equal-width bins in each dimension.

Parameters

x (Tensor) – The input tensor.
bins (Tensor[], int[], or int) – If Tensor[], defines the sequences of bin edges. If int[], defines the number of equal-width bins in each dimension. If int, defines the number of equal-width bins for all dimensions.
ranges (sequence of float, optional) – Defines the leftmost and rightmost bin edges in each dimension. If is None, set the minimum and maximum as leftmost and rightmost edges for each dimension.
density (bool, optional) – If False (default), the result will contain the count (or total weight) in each bin. If True, each count (weight) is divided by the total count (total weight), then divided by the volume of its associated bin.
weights (Tensor, optional) – By default, each value in the input has weight 1. If a weight tensor is passed, each N-dimensional coordinate in input contributes its associated weight towards its bin’s result. The weight tensor should have the same shape as the input tensor excluding its innermost dimension N.
name (str, optional) – For details, please refer to Name. Generally, no setting is required. Default: None.

Returns

N-dimensional Tensor containing the values of the histogram. bin_edges(Tensor[]), sequence of N 1D Tensors containing the bin edges.

Inverse short-time Fourier transform (ISTFT).

Reconstruct time-domain signal from the giving complex input and window tensor when nonzero overlap-add (NOLA) condition is met:

\[\sum_{t = -\infty}^{\infty} \text{window}^2[n - t \times H]\ \neq \ 0, \ \text{for } all \ n\]

Where: - $t$: The $t$-th input window. - $N$: Value of n_fft. - $H$: Value of hop_length.

Result of istft expected to be the inverse of paddle.signal.stft, but it is not guaranteed to reconstruct a exactly realizable time-domain signal from a STFT complex tensor which has been modified (via masking or otherwise). Therefore, istft gives the [Griffin-Lim optimal estimate] (optimal in a least-squares sense) for the corresponding signal.

Parameters

x (Tensor) – The input data which is a 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional complex Tensor with shape […, n_fft, num_frames].
n_fft (int) – The size of Fourier transform.
hop_length (int, optional) – Number of steps to advance between adjacent windows from time-domain signal and 0 < hop_length < win_length. Default: None ( treated as equal to n_fft//4)
win_length (int, optional) – The size of window. Default: None (treated as equal to n_fft)
window (Tensor, optional) – A 1-dimensional tensor of size win_length. It will be center padded to length n_fft if win_length < n_fft. It should be a real-valued tensor if return_complex is False. Default: None`(treated as a rectangle window with value equal to 1 of size `win_length).
center (bool, optional) – It means that whether the time-domain signal has been center padded. Default: True.
normalized (bool, optional) – Control whether to scale the output by $1/sqrt(n_{fft})$. Default: False
onesided (bool, optional) – It means that whether the input STFT tensor is a half of the conjugate symmetry STFT tensor transformed from a real-valued signal and istft will return a real-valued tensor when it is set to True. Default: True.
length (int, optional) – Specify the length of time-domain signal. Default: `None`( treated as the whole length of signal).
return_complex (bool, optional) – It means that whether the time-domain signal is real-valued. If return_complex is set to True, onesided should be set to False cause the output is complex.
name (str, optional) – The default value is None. Normally there is no need for user to set this property. For more information, please refer to Name.

Returns

A tensor of least squares estimation of the reconstructed signal(s) with shape […, seq_length]

Examples

             >>> import numpy as np
>>> import paddle
>>> from paddle.signal import stft, istft

>>> paddle.seed(0)

>>> # STFT
>>> x = paddle.randn([8, 48000], dtype=paddle.float64)
>>> y = stft(x, n_fft=512)

[8, 257, 376]

>>> # ISTFT
>>> x_ = istft(y, n_fft=512)
>>> print(x_.shape)
[8, 48000]

>>> np.allclose(x, x_)
True

kron ( y, name=None ) kron¶

Compute the Kronecker product of two tensors, a composite tensor made of blocks of the second tensor scaled by the first. Assume that the rank of the two tensors, $X$ and $Y$ are the same, if necessary prepending the smallest with ones. If the shape of $X$ is [$r_0$, $r_1$, …, $r_N$] and the shape of $Y$ is [$s_0$, $s_1$, …, $s_N$], then the shape of the output tensor is [$r_{0}s_{0}$, $r_{1}s_{1}$, …, $r_{N}s_{N}$]. The elements are products of elements from $X$ and $Y$. The equation is: $$ output[k_{0}, k_{1}, …, k_{N}] = X[i_{0}, i_{1}, …, i_{N}] * Y[j_{0}, j_{1}, …, j_{N}] $$ where $$ k_{t} = i_{t} * s_{t} + j_{t}, t = 0, 1, …, N $$

matmul ( y, transpose_x=False, transpose_y=False, name=None ) matmul¶

Applies matrix multiplication to two tensors. matmul follows the complete broadcast rules, and its behavior is consistent with np.matmul.

Currently, the input tensors’ number of dimensions can be any, matmul can be used to achieve the dot, matmul and batchmatmul.

The actual behavior depends on the shapes of $x$, $y$ and the flag values of transpose_x, transpose_y. Specifically:

If a transpose flag is specified, the last two dimensions of the tensor are transposed. If the tensor is ndim-1 of shape, the transpose is invalid. If the tensor is ndim-1 of shape $[D]$, then for $x$ it is treated as $[1, D]$, whereas for $y$ it is the opposite: It is treated as $[D, 1]$.

The multiplication behavior depends on the dimensions of x and y. Specifically:

If both tensors are 1-dimensional, the dot product result is obtained.
If both tensors are 2-dimensional, the matrix-matrix product is obtained.
If the x is 1-dimensional and the y is 2-dimensional, a 1 is prepended to its dimension in order to conduct the matrix multiply. After the matrix multiply, the prepended dimension is removed.
If the x is 2-dimensional and y is 1-dimensional, the matrix-vector product is obtained.
If both arguments are at least 1-dimensional and at least one argument is N-dimensional (where N > 2), then a batched matrix multiply is obtained. If the first argument is 1-dimensional, a 1 is prepended to its dimension in order to conduct the batched matrix multiply and removed after. If the second argument is 1-dimensional, a 1 is appended to its dimension for the purpose of the batched matrix multiple and removed after. The non-matrix (exclude the last two dimensions) dimensions are broadcasted according the broadcast rule. For example, if input is a (j, 1, n, m) tensor and the other is a (k, m, p) tensor, out will be a (j, k, n, p) tensor.

Parameters

x (Tensor) – The input tensor which is a Tensor.
y (Tensor) – The input tensor which is a Tensor.
transpose_x (bool, optional) – Whether to transpose $x$ before multiplication. Default is False.
transpose_y (bool, optional) – Whether to transpose $y$ before multiplication. Default is False.
name (str, optional) – If set None, the layer will be named automatically. For more information, please refer to Name. Default is None.

Returns

The output Tensor.

Return type

             >>> import paddle

>>> # vector * vector
>>> x = paddle.rand([10])
>>> y = paddle.rand([10])

multi_dot ( name=None ) multi_dot¶

Multi_dot is an operator that calculates multiple matrix multiplications.

Supports inputs of float16(only GPU support), float32 and float64 dtypes. This function does not support batched inputs.

The input tensor in [x] must be 2-D except for the first and last can be 1-D. If the first tensor is a 1-D vector of shape(n, ) it is treated as row vector of shape(1, n), similarly if the last tensor is a 1D vector of shape(n, ), it is treated as a column vector of shape(n, 1).

If the first and last tensor are 2-D matrix, then the output is also 2-D matrix, otherwise the output is a 1-D vector.

Multi_dot will select the lowest cost multiplication order for calculation. The cost of multiplying two matrices with shapes (a, b) and (b, c) is a * b * c. Given matrices A, B, C with shapes (20, 5), (5, 100), (100, 10) respectively, we can calculate the cost of different multiplication orders as follows: - Cost((AB)C) = 20x5x100 + 20x100x10 = 30000 - Cost(A(BC)) = 5x100x10 + 20x5x10 = 6000

In this case, multiplying B and C first, then multiply A, which is 5 times faster than sequential calculation.

Parameters

x ([Tensor]) – The input tensors which is a list Tensor.
name (str, optional) – Name for the operation (optional, default is None). For more information, please refer to Name.

Returns

The output Tensor.

>>> A = paddle.rand([10, 5])
>>> B = paddle.rand([5, 8])

norm ( p=None, axis=None, keepdim=False, name=None ) norm¶

Returns the matrix norm (the Frobenius norm, the nuclear norm and p-norm) or vector norm (the 1-norm, the Euclidean or 2-norm, and in general the p-norm) of a given tensor.

Whether the function calculates the vector norm or the matrix norm is determined as follows:

If axis is of type int, calculate the vector norm.
If axis is a two-dimensional array, calculate the matrix norm.
If axis is None, x is compressed into a one-dimensional vector and the vector norm is calculated.

Paddle supports the following norms:

porder	norm for matrices	norm for vectors
None(default)	frobenius norm	2_norm
fro	frobenius norm	not support
nuc	nuclear norm	not support
inf	max(sum(abs(x), dim=1))	max(abs(x))
-inf	min(sum(abs(x), dim=1))	min(abs(x))
0	not support	sum(x != 0)
1	max(sum(abs(x), dim=0))	as below
-1	min(sum(abs(x), dim=0))	as below
2	The maximum singular value of a matrix consisting of axis.	as below
-2	The minimum singular value of a matrix consisting of axis.	as below
other int or float	not support	sum(abs(x)^{porder})^ {(1 / porder)}

Parameters

x (Tensor) – The input tensor could be N-D tensor, and the input data type could be float32 or float64.
p (int|float|string, optional) – Order of the norm. Supported values are fro, nuc, 0, ±1, ±2, ±inf and any real number yielding the corresponding p-norm. Default value is None.
axis (int|list|tuple, optional) – The axis on which to apply norm operation. If axis is int or list(int)/tuple(int) with only one element, the vector norm is computed over the axis. If axis < 0, the dimension to norm operation is rank(input) + axis. If axis is a list(int)/tuple(int) with two elements, the matrix norm is computed over the axis. Default value is None.
keepdim (bool, optional) – Whether to reserve the reduced dimension in the output Tensor. The result tensor will have fewer dimension than the input unless keepdim is true, default value is False.
name (str, optional) – The default value is None. Normally there is no need for user to set this property. For more information, please refer to Name.

repeat_interleave ( repeats, axis=None, name=None ) repeat_interleave¶

Returns a new tensor which repeats the x tensor along dimension axis using the entries in repeats which is a int or a Tensor.

Parameters

x (Tensor) – The input Tensor to be operated. The data of x can be one of float32, float64, int32, int64.
repeats (Tensor or int) – The number of repetitions for each element. repeats is broadcasted to fit the shape of the given axis.
axis (int, optional) – The dimension in which we manipulate. Default: None, the output tensor is flatten.
name (str, optional) – The default value is None. Normally there is no need for user to set this property. For more information, please refer to Name.

Returns

Examples

             >>> import paddle

>>> x = paddle.to_tensor([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]])
>>> repeats = paddle.to_tensor([3, 2, 1], dtype='int32')

reshape ( shape, name=None ) reshape¶

Changes the shape of x without changing its data.

Note that the output Tensor will share data with origin Tensor and doesn’t have a Tensor copy in dygraph mode. If you want to use the Tensor copy version, please use Tensor.clone like reshape_clone_x = x.reshape([-1]).clone().

Some tricks exist when specifying the target shape.

-1 means the value of this dimension is inferred from the total element number of x and remaining dimensions. Thus one and only one dimension can be set -1.

0 means the actual dimension value is going to be copied from the corresponding dimension of x. The index of 0s in shape can not exceed the dimension of x.

Here are some examples to explain it.

Given a 3-D tensor x with a shape [2, 4, 6], and the target shape is [6, 8], the reshape operator will transform x into a 2-D tensor with shape [6, 8] and leaving x’s data unchanged.

Given a 3-D tensor x with a shape [2, 4, 6], and the target shape specified is [2, 3, -1, 2], the reshape operator will transform x into a 4-D tensor with shape [2, 3, 4, 2] and leaving x’s data unchanged. In this case, one dimension of the target shape is set to -1, the value of this dimension is inferred from the total element number of x and remaining dimensions.

Given a 3-D tensor x with a shape [2, 4, 6], and the target shape is [-1, 0, 3, 2], the reshape operator will transform x into a 4-D tensor with shape [2, 4, 3, 2] and leaving x’s data unchanged. In this case, besides -1, 0 means the actual dimension value is going to be copied from the corresponding dimension of x.

The following figure illustrates the first example – a 3D tensor of shape [2, 4, 6] is transformed into a 2D tensor of shape [6, 8], during which the order and values of the elements in the tensor remain unchanged. The elements in the two subdiagrams correspond to each other, clearly demonstrating how the reshape API works.

Parameters

x (Tensor) – An N-D Tensor. The data type is float16, float32, float64, int16, int32, int64, int8, uint8, complex64, complex128, bfloat16 or bool.
shape (list|tuple|Tensor) – Define the target shape. At most one dimension of the target shape can be -1. The data type is int32 . If shape is a list or tuple, each element of it should be integer or Tensor with shape []. If shape is a Tensor, it should be an 1-D Tensor .
name (str, optional) – Name for the operation (optional, default is None). For more information, please refer to Name.

Returns

Tensor, A reshaped Tensor with the same data type as x.

Examples

             >>> import paddle

>>> x = paddle.rand([2, 4, 6], dtype="float32")
>>> positive_four = paddle.full([1], 4, "int32")

>>> out = paddle.reshape(x, [-1, 0, 3, 2])
>>> print(out.shape)
[2, 4, 3, 2]

>>> shape_tensor = paddle.to_tensor([8, 6], dtype=paddle.int32)
>>> out = paddle.reshape(x, shape=shape_tensor)
>>> print(out.shape)

scatter_nd ( updates, shape, name=None ) scatter_nd¶

Scatter_nd Layer

Output is obtained by scattering the updates in a new tensor according to index . This op is similar to scatter_nd_add, except the tensor of shape is zero-initialized. Correspondingly, scatter_nd(index, updates, shape) is equal to scatter_nd_add(paddle.zeros(shape, updates.dtype), index, updates) . If index has repeated elements, then the corresponding updates are accumulated. Because of the numerical approximation issues, the different order of repeated elements in index may cause different results. The specific calculation method can be seen scatter_nd_add . This op is the inverse of the gather_nd op.

Parameters

index (Tensor) – The index input with ndim >= 1 and index.shape[-1] <= len(shape). Its dtype should be int32 or int64 as it is used as indexes.
updates (Tensor) – The updated value of scatter_nd op. Its dtype should be float32, float64. It must have the shape index.shape[:-1] + shape[index.shape[-1]:]
shape (tuple|list) – Shape of output tensor.
name (str|None) – The output Tensor name. If set None, the layer will be named automatically.

Returns

output (Tensor), The output is a tensor with the same type as updates .

...                           [1, 3]], dtype="int64")
>>> updates = paddle.rand(shape=[3, 9, 10], dtype='float32')

>>> output = paddle.scatter_nd(index, updates, shape)

            

scatter_nd_add ( index, updates, name=None ) scatter_nd_add¶

Output is obtained by applying sparse addition to a single value or slice in a Tensor.

x is a Tensor with ndim $R$ and index is a Tensor with ndim $K$ . Thus, index has shape $[i_0, i_1, ..., i_{K-2}, Q]$ where $Q \leq R$ . updates is a Tensor with ndim $K - 1 + R - Q$ and its shape is $index.shape[:-1] + x.shape[index.shape[-1]:]$ .

According to the $[i_0, i_1, ..., i_{K-2}]$ of index , add the corresponding updates slice to the x slice which is obtained by the last one dimension of index .

             Given:

* Case 1:
    x = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
    index = [[1], [2], [3], [1]]
    updates = [9, 10, 11, 12]

  we get:

    output = [0, 22, 12, 14, 4, 5]

* Case 2:
    x = [[65, 17], [-14, -25]]
    index = [[], []]
    updates = [[[-1, -2], [1, 2]],
               [[3, 4], [-3, -4]]]
    x.shape = (2, 2)
    index.shape = (2, 0)
    updates.shape = (2, 2, 2)

  we get:

    output = [[67, 19], [-16, -27]]

            

Parameters

x (Tensor) – The x input. Its dtype should be int32, int64, float32, float64.

shard_index ( index_num, nshards, shard_id, ignore_value=- 1 ) shard_index¶

Reset the values of input according to the shard it belongs to. Every value in input must be a non-negative integer, and the parameter index_num represents the integer above the maximum value of input. Thus, all values in input must be in the range [0, index_num) and each value can be regarded as the offset to the beginning of the range. The range is further split into multiple shards. Specifically, we first compute the shard_size according to the following formula, which represents the number of integers each shard can hold. So for the i’th shard, it can hold values in the range [i*shard_size, (i+1)*shard_size).

             shard_size = (index_num + nshards - 1) // nshards

            

For each value v in input, we reset it to a new value according to the following formula:

             v = v - shard_id * shard_size if shard_id * shard_size <= v < (shard_id+1) * shard_size else ignore_value

            

That is, the value v is set to the new offset within the range represented by the shard shard_id if it in the range. Otherwise, we reset it to be ignore_value.

Parameters

input (Tensor) – Input tensor with data type int64 or int32. It’s last dimension must be 1.
index_num (int) – An integer represents the integer above the maximum value of input.
nshards (int) – The number of shards.
shard_id (int) – The index of the current shard.
ignore_value (int, optional) – An integer value out of sharded index range. The default value is -1.

Returns

Tensor.

Examples

             >>> import paddle
>>> label = paddle.to_tensor([[16], [1]], "int64")
>>> shard_label = paddle.shard_index(input=label,
...                                  index_num=20,
...                                  nshards=2,

slice ( axes, starts, ends ) slice¶

This operator produces a slice of input along multiple axes. Similar to numpy: https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/arrays.indexing.html Slice uses axes, starts and ends attributes to specify the start and end dimension for each axis in the list of axes and Slice uses this information to slice the input data tensor. If a negative value is passed to starts or ends such as $-i$, it represents the reverse position of the axis $i-1$ (here 0 is the initial position). If the value passed to starts or ends is greater than n (the number of elements in this dimension), it represents n. For slicing to the end of a dimension with unknown size, it is recommended to pass in INT_MAX. The size of axes must be equal to starts and ends. Following examples will explain how slice works:

             Case1:
    Given:
        data = [ [1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8], ]
        axes = [0, 1]
        starts = [1, 0]
        ends = [2, 3]
    Then:
        result = [ [5, 6, 7], ]

Case2:
    Given:
        data = [ [1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8], ]
        axes = [0, 1]
        starts = [0, 1]
        ends = [-1, 1000]       # -1 denotes the reverse 0th position of dimension 0.
    Then:
        result = [ [2, 3, 4], ] # result = data[0:1, 1:4]

            

Parameters

input (Tensor) – A Tensor . The data type is float16, float32, float64, int32 or int64.
axes (list|tuple) – The data type is int32 . Axes that starts and ends apply to .
starts (list|tuple|Tensor) – The data type is int32 . If starts is a list or tuple, each element of it should be integer or 0-D int Tensor with shape []. If starts is an Tensor, it should be an 1-D Tensor. It represents starting indices of corresponding axis in axes.
ends (list|tuple|Tensor) – The data type is int32 . If ends is a list or tuple, each element of it should be integer or 0-D int Tensor with shape []. If ends is an Tensor, it should be an 1-D Tensor . It represents ending indices of corresponding axis in axes.

Returns

Tensor, A Tensor. The data type is same as input.

Examples

             >>> import paddle

>>> input = paddle.rand(shape=[4, 5, 6], dtype='float32')
>>> # example 1:
>>> # attr starts is a list which doesn't contain tensor.
>>> axes = [0, 1, 2]
>>> starts = [-3, 0, 2]
>>> ends = [3, 2, 4]
>>> sliced_1 = paddle.slice(input, axes=axes, starts=starts, ends=ends)
>>> # sliced_1 is input[1:3, 0:2, 2:4].

>>> # example 2:
>>> # attr starts is a list which contain tensor.
>>> minus_3 = paddle.full([1], -3, "int32")
>>> sliced_2 = paddle.slice(input, axes=axes, starts=[minus_3, 0, 2], ends=ends)

strided_slice ( axes, starts, ends, strides, name=None ) strided_slice¶

This operator produces a slice of x along multiple axes. Similar to numpy: https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/arrays.indexing.html Slice uses axes, starts and ends attributes to specify the start and end dimension for each axis in the list of axes and Slice uses this information to slice the input data tensor. If a negative value is passed to starts or ends such as $-i$, it represents the reverse position of the axis $i-1$ th(here 0 is the initial position). The strides represents steps of slicing and if the strides is negative, slice operation is in the opposite direction. If the value passed to starts or ends is greater than n (the number of elements in this dimension), it represents n. For slicing to the end of a dimension with unknown size, it is recommended to pass in INT_MAX. The size of axes must be equal to starts , ends and strides. Following examples will explain how strided_slice works:

             Case1:
    Given:
        data = [ [1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8], ]
        axes = [0, 1]
        starts = [1, 0]
        ends = [2, 3]
        strides = [1, 1]
    Then:
        result = [ [5, 6, 7], ]

Case2:
    Given:
        data = [ [1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8], ]
        axes = [0, 1]
        starts = [0, 1]
        ends = [2, 0]
        strides = [1, -1]
    Then:
        result = [ [8, 7, 6], ]
Case3:
    Given:
        data = [ [1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8], ]
        axes = [0, 1]
        starts = [0, 1]
        ends = [-1, 1000]
        strides = [1, 3]
    Then:
        result = [ [2], ]

tensordot ( y, axes=2, name=None ) tensordot¶

This function computes a contraction, which sum the product of elements from two tensors along the given axes.

Parameters

x (Tensor) – The left tensor for contraction with data type float16 or float32 or float64.
y (Tensor) – The right tensor for contraction with the same data type as x.
axes (int|tuple|list|Tensor, optional) –
The axes to contract for x and y, defaulted to integer 2.
1. It could be a non-negative integer n, in which the function will sum over the last n axes of x and the first n axes of y in order.
2. It could be a 1-d tuple or list with data type int, in which x and y will be contracted along the same given axes. For example, axes =[0, 1] applies contraction along the first two axes for x and the first two axes for y.
3. It could be a tuple or list containing one or two 1-d tuple|list|Tensor with data type int. When containing one tuple|list|Tensor, the data in tuple|list|Tensor specified the same axes for x and y to contract. When containing two tuple|list|Tensor, the first will be applied to x and the second to y. When containing more than two tuple|list|Tensor, only the first two axis sequences will be used while the others will be ignored.
4. It could be a tensor, in which the axes tensor will be translated to a python list and applied the same rules described above to determine the contraction axes. Note that the axes with Tensor type is ONLY available in Dygraph mode.
name (str, optional) – The default value is None. Normally there is no need for user to set this property. For more information, please refer to Name .

Returns

Output (Tensor), The contraction result with the same data type as x and y. In general, $output.ndim = x.ndim + y.ndim - 2 \times n_{axes}$, where $n_{axes}$ denotes the number of axes to be contracted.

Notes

This function supports tensor broadcast, the size in the corresponding dimensions of x and y should be equal, or applies to the broadcast rules.
This function also supports axes expansion, when the two given axis sequences for x and y are of different lengths, the shorter sequence will expand the same axes as the longer one at the end. For example, if axes =[[0, 1, 2, 3], [1, 0]], the axis sequence for x is [0, 1, 2, 3], while the corresponding axis sequences for y will be expanded from [1, 0] to [1, 0, 2, 3].

trace ( offset=0, axis1=0, axis2=1, name=None ) trace¶

Computes the sum along diagonals of the input tensor x.

If x is 2D, returns the sum of diagonal.

If x has larger dimensions, then returns an tensor of diagonals sum, diagonals be taken from the 2D planes specified by axis1 and axis2. By default, the 2D planes formed by the first and second axes of the input tensor x.

The argument offset determines where diagonals are taken from input tensor x:

If offset = 0, it is the main diagonal.
If offset > 0, it is above the main diagonal.
If offset < 0, it is below the main diagonal.
Note that if offset is out of input’s shape indicated by axis1 and axis2, 0 will be returned.

Parameters

unsqueeze ( axis, name=None ) unsqueeze¶

Insert single-dimensional entries to the shape of input Tensor x. Takes one required argument axis, a dimension or list of dimensions that will be inserted. Dimension indices in axis are as seen in the output tensor.

Note that the output Tensor will share data with origin Tensor and doesn’t have a Tensor copy in dygraph mode. If you want to use the Tensor copy version, please use Tensor.clone like unsqueeze_clone_x = x.unsqueeze(-1).clone().

Parameters

x (Tensor) – The input Tensor to be unsqueezed. Supported data type: bfloat16, float16, float32, float64, bool, int8, int32, int64.
axis (int|list|tuple|Tensor) – Indicates the dimensions to be inserted. The data type is int32 . If axis is a list or tuple, each element of it should be integer or 0-D Tensor with shape []. If axis is a Tensor, it should be an 1-D Tensor . If axis is negative, axis = axis + ndim(x) + 1.
name (str|None) – Name for this layer. Please refer to Name, Default None.

Returns

Tensor, Unsqueezed Tensor with the same data type as input Tensor.

Examples

             >>> import paddle

>>> x = paddle.rand([5, 10])
>>> print(x.shape)
[5, 10]

>>> out1 = paddle.unsqueeze(x, axis=0)
>>> print(out1.shape)
[1, 5, 10]

>>> out2 = paddle.unsqueeze(x, axis=[0, 2])
>>> print(out2.shape)
[1, 5, 1, 10]

>>> axis = paddle.to_tensor([0, 1, 2])
>>> out3 = paddle.unsqueeze(x, axis=axis)
>>> print(out3.shape)
[1, 1, 1, 5, 10]

>>> # out1, out2, out3 share data with x in dygraph mode
>>> x[0, 0] = 10.
>>> print(out1[0, 0, 0])
Tensor(shape=[], dtype=float32, place=Place(cpu), stop_gradient=True,
10.)
>>> print(out2[0, 0, 0, 0])
Tensor(shape=[], dtype=float32, place=Place(cpu), stop_gradient=True,

unsqueeze_ ( axis, name=None ) unsqueeze_¶: Inplace version of unsqueeze API, the output Tensor will be inplaced with input x. Please refer to api_paddle_tensor_unsqueeze.

unstack ( axis=0, num=None ) unstack¶

This layer unstacks input Tensor x into several Tensors along axis.

If axis < 0, it would be replaced with axis+rank(x). If num is None, it would be inferred from x.shape[axis], and if x.shape[axis] <= 0 or is unknown, ValueError is raised.

Parameters

x (Tensor) – Input Tensor. It is a N-D Tensors of data types float32, float64, int32, int64, complex64, complex128.
axis (int) – The axis along which the input is unstacked.
num (int|None) – The number of output variables.

Returns

list(Tensor), The unstacked Tensors list. The list elements are N-D Tensors of data types float32, float64, int32, int64, complex64, complex128.

Examples

             >>> import paddle
>>> x = paddle.ones(name='x', shape=[2, 3, 5], dtype='float32')  # create a tensor with shape=[2, 3, 5]
>>> y = paddle.unstack(x, axis=1)  # unstack with second axis, which results 3 tensors with shape=[2, 5]

            

vander ( n=None, increasing=False, name=None ) vander¶

Generate a Vandermonde matrix.

The columns of the output matrix are powers of the input vector. Order of the powers is determined by the increasing Boolean parameter. Specifically, when the increment is “false”, the ith output column is a step-up in the order of the elements of the input vector to the N - i - 1 power. Such a matrix with a geometric progression in each row is named after Alexandre-Theophile Vandermonde.

Parameters

x (Tensor) – The input tensor, it must be 1-D Tensor, and it’s data type should be [‘complex64’, ‘complex128’, ‘float32’, ‘float64’, ‘int32’, ‘int64’].
n (int) – Number of columns in the output. If n is not specified, a square array is returned (n = len(x)).
increasing (bool) – Order of the powers of the columns. If True, the powers increase from left to right, if False (the default) they are reversed.
name (str, optional) – For details, please refer to Name. Generally, no setting is required. Default: None.

Returns

Tensor, A vandermonde matrix with shape (len(x), N). If increasing is False, the first column is $x^{(N-1)}$, the second $x^{(N-2)}$ and so forth. If increasing is True, the columns are $x^0$, $x^1$, …, $x^{(N-1)}$.

Examples

             >>> import paddle
>>> x = paddle.to_tensor([1., 2., 3.], dtype="float32")
>>> out = paddle.vander(x)
>>> out
Tensor(shape=[3, 3], dtype=float32, place=Place(cpu), stop_gradient=True,

[[1., 1.],
 [2., 1.],
 [3., 1.]])
>>> out2 = paddle.vander(x, increasing = True)
>>> out2
Tensor(shape=[3, 3], dtype=float32, place=Place(cpu), stop_gradient=True,
[[1., 1., 1.],
 [1., 2., 4.],
 [1., 3., 9.]])
