tf.contrib.distributions.bijectors.real_nvp_default_template

Build a scale-and-shift function using a multi-layer neural network. (deprecated)

This will be wrapped in a make_template to ensure the variables are only created once. It takes the d-dimensional input x[0:d] and returns the D-d dimensional outputs loc ("mu") and log_scale ("alpha").

Arguments
hidden_layers Python list-like of non-negative integer, scalars indicating the number of units in each hidden layer. Default: [512, 512]. </td> </tr><tr> <td>shift_only</td> <td> Pythonboolindicating if only theshiftterm shall be computed (i.e. NICE bijector). Default:False. </td> </tr><tr> <td>activation</td> <td> Activation function (callable). Explicitly setting toNoneimplies a linear activation. </td> </tr><tr> <td>name</td> <td> A name for ops managed by this function. Default: "real_nvp_default_template". </td> </tr><tr> <td>args</td> <td> <a href="../../../../tf/layers/dense"><code>tf.compat.v1.layers.dense</code></a> arguments. </td> </tr><tr> <td>*kwargs` tf.compat.v1.layers.dense keyword arguments.
Returns
shift Float-like Tensor of shift terms ("mu" in [Papamakarios et al. (2016)][1]).
log_scale Float-like Tensor of log(scale) terms ("alpha" in [Papamakarios et al. (2016)][1]).
Raises
NotImplementedError if rightmost dimension of inputs is unknown prior to graph execution.
