tf.raw_ops.ResourceScatterNdSub

Applies sparse subtraction to individual values or slices in a Variable.

ref is a Tensor with rank P and indices is a Tensor of rank Q.

indices must be integer tensor, containing indices into ref. It must be shape [d_0, ..., d_{Q-2}, K] where 0 < K <= P.

The innermost dimension of indices (with length K) corresponds to indices into elements (if K = P) or slices (if K < P) along the Kth dimension of ref.

updates is Tensor of rank Q-1+P-K with shape:

[d_0, ..., d_{Q-2}, ref.shape[K], ..., ref.shape[P-1]]

For example, say we want to subtract 4 scattered elements from a rank-1 tensor with 8 elements. In Python, that subtraction would look like this:

ref = tf.Variable([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8], use_resource=True)
indices = tf.constant([[4], [3], [1], [7]])
updates = tf.constant([9, 10, 11, 12])
sub = tf.scatter_nd_sub(ref, indices, updates)
with tf.Session() as sess:
  print sess.run(sub)

The resulting update to ref would look like this:

[1, -9, 3, -6, -4, 6, 7, -4]

See tf.scatter_nd for more details about how to make updates to slices.

Args
ref A Tensor of type resource. A resource handle. Must be from a VarHandleOp.
indices A Tensor. Must be one of the following types: int32, int64. A Tensor. Must be one of the following types: int32, int64. A tensor of indices into ref.
updates A Tensor. A Tensor. Must have the same type as ref. A tensor of values to add to ref.
use_locking An optional bool. Defaults to True. An optional bool. Defaults to True. If True, the assignment will be protected by a lock; otherwise the behavior is undefined, but may exhibit less contention.
name A name for the operation (optional).
Returns
The created Operation.
