RandomNormal

Description

Generate a tensor with random values drawn from a normal distribution. The shape of the tensor is specified by theΒ shapeΒ argument and the parameter of the normal distribution specified byΒ meanΒ andΒ scale. The data type is specified by the β€˜dtype’ argument. The β€˜dtype’ argument must be one of the data types specified in the β€˜DataType’ enum field in the TensorProto message.

 

Input parameters

 

Β specified_outputs_nameΒ :Β array,Β this parameter lets you manually assign custom names to the output tensors of a node.

Β Parameters :Β cluster,

dtype :Β enum, the data type for the elements of the output tensor.
Default value β€œFLOAT”.
mean : float, the mean of the normal distribution.
Default value β€œ0”.
scale : float, the standard deviation of the normal distribution.
Default value β€œ0”.
seed : float, seed to the random generator, if not specified we will auto generate one.
Default value β€œ0”.
shape : array, the shape of the output tensor.
Default value β€œempty”.
Β training?Β :Β boolean, whether the layer is in training mode (can store data for backward).
Default value β€œTrue”.
Β lda coeff :Β float, defines the coefficient by which the loss derivative will be multiplied before being sent to the previous layer (since during the backward run we go backwards).
Default value β€œ1”.

Β name (optional) :Β string,Β name of the node.

Output parameters

 

outputΒ (heterogeneous) –Β TΒ : object, output tensor of random values drawn from normal distribution.

Type Constraints

T in (tensor(double),Β tensor(float),Β tensor(float16)) : Constrain output types to float tensors.
