torch.Tensor

A torch.Tensor is a multi-dimensional matrix containing elements of a single data type.

Torch defines 10 tensor types with CPU and GPU variants which are as follows:

Data type	dtype	CPU tensor	GPU tensor
32-bit floating point	torch.float32 or torch.float	torch.FloatTensor	torch.cuda.FloatTensor
64-bit floating point	torch.float64 or torch.double	torch.DoubleTensor	torch.cuda.DoubleTensor
16-bit floating point 1	torch.float16 or torch.half	torch.HalfTensor	torch.cuda.HalfTensor
16-bit floating point 2	torch.bfloat16	torch.BFloat16Tensor	torch.cuda.BFloat16Tensor
32-bit complex	torch.complex32
64-bit complex	torch.complex64
128-bit complex	torch.complex128 or torch.cdouble
8-bit integer (unsigned)	torch.uint8	torch.ByteTensor	torch.cuda.ByteTensor
8-bit integer (signed)	torch.int8	torch.CharTensor	torch.cuda.CharTensor
16-bit integer (signed)	torch.int16 or torch.short	torch.ShortTensor	torch.cuda.ShortTensor
32-bit integer (signed)	torch.int32 or torch.int	torch.IntTensor	torch.cuda.IntTensor
64-bit integer (signed)	torch.int64 or torch.long	torch.LongTensor	torch.cuda.LongTensor
Boolean	torch.bool	torch.BoolTensor	torch.cuda.BoolTensor

1

Sometimes referred to as binary16: uses 1 sign, 5 exponent, and 10 significand bits. Useful when precision is important at the expense of range.

2

Sometimes referred to as Brain Floating Point: uses 1 sign, 8 exponent, and 7 significand bits. Useful when range is important, since it has the same number of exponent bits as float32

torch.Tensor is an alias for the default tensor type (torch.FloatTensor).

A tensor can be constructed from a Python list or sequence using the torch.tensor() constructor:

>>> torch.tensor([[1., -1.], [1., -1.]])
tensor([[ 1.0000, -1.0000],
        [ 1.0000, -1.0000]])
>>> torch.tensor(np.array([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]]))
tensor([[ 1,  2,  3],
        [ 4,  5,  6]])

A tensor of specific data type can be constructed by passing a torch.dtype and/or a torch.device to a constructor or tensor creation op:

>>> torch.zeros([2, 4], dtype=torch.int32)
tensor([[ 0,  0,  0,  0],
        [ 0,  0,  0,  0]], dtype=torch.int32)
>>> cuda0 = torch.device('cuda:0')
>>> torch.ones([2, 4], dtype=torch.float64, device=cuda0)
tensor([[ 1.0000,  1.0000,  1.0000,  1.0000],
        [ 1.0000,  1.0000,  1.0000,  1.0000]], dtype=torch.float64, device='cuda:0')

The contents of a tensor can be accessed and modified using Python’s indexing and slicing notation:

>>> x = torch.tensor([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]])
>>> print(x[1][2])
tensor(6)
>>> x[0][1] = 8
>>> print(x)
tensor([[ 1,  8,  3],
        [ 4,  5,  6]])

Use torch.Tensor.item() to get a Python number from a tensor containing a single value:

>>> x = torch.tensor([[1]])
>>> x
tensor([[ 1]])
>>> x.item()
1
>>> x = torch.tensor(2.5)
>>> x
tensor(2.5000)
>>> x.item()
2.5

A tensor can be created with requires_grad=True so that torch.autograd records operations on them for automatic differentiation.

>>> x = torch.tensor([[1., -1.], [1., 1.]], requires_grad=True)
>>> out = x.pow(2).sum()
>>> out.backward()
>>> x.grad
tensor([[ 2.0000, -2.0000],
        [ 2.0000,  2.0000]])

Each tensor has an associated torch.Storage, which holds its data. The tensor class also provides multi-dimensional, strided view of a storage and defines numeric operations on it.

class torch.Tensor

There are a few main ways to create a tensor, depending on your use case.

• To create a tensor with pre-existing data, use torch.tensor().
• To create a tensor with specific size, use torch.* tensor creation ops (see Creation Ops).
• To create a tensor with the same size (and similar types) as another tensor, use torch.*_like tensor creation ops (see Creation Ops).
• To create a tensor with similar type but different size as another tensor, use tensor.new_* creation ops.

new_tensor(data, dtype=None, device=None, requires_grad=False) → Tensor

Returns a new Tensor with data as the tensor data. By default, the returned Tensor has the same torch.dtype and torch.device as this tensor.

Warning

new_tensor() always copies data. If you have a Tensor data and want to avoid a copy, use torch.Tensor.requires_grad_() or torch.Tensor.detach(). If you have a numpy array and want to avoid a copy, use torch.from_numpy().

Warning

When data is a tensor x, new_tensor() reads out ‘the data’ from whatever it is passed, and constructs a leaf variable. Therefore tensor.new_tensor(x) is equivalent to x.clone().detach() and tensor.new_tensor(x, requires_grad=True) is equivalent to x.clone().detach().requires_grad_(True). The equivalents using clone() and detach() are recommended.

Parameters

backward(gradient=None, retain_graph=None, create_graph=False) [source]

Computes the gradient of current tensor w.r.t. graph leaves.

The graph is differentiated using the chain rule. If the tensor is non-scalar (i.e. its data has more than one element) and requires gradient, the function additionally requires specifying gradient. It should be a tensor of matching type and location, that contains the gradient of the differentiated function w.r.t. self.

This function accumulates gradients in the leaves - you might need to zero .grad attributes or set them to None before calling it. See Default gradient layouts for details on the memory layout of accumulated gradients.

Parameters

• gradient (Tensor or None) – Gradient w.r.t. the tensor. If it is a tensor, it will be automatically converted to a Tensor that does not require grad unless create_graph is True. None values can be specified for scalar Tensors or ones that don’t require grad. If a None value would be acceptable then this argument is optional.
• retain_graph (bool, optional) – If False, the graph used to compute the grads will be freed. Note that in nearly all cases setting this option to True is not needed and often can be worked around in a much more efficient way. Defaults to the value of create_graph.
• create_graph (bool, optional) – If True, graph of the derivative will be constructed, allowing to compute higher order derivative products. Defaults to False.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Previously, in-place size / stride / storage changes (such as resize_ / resize_as_ / set_ / transpose_) to the returned tensor also update the original tensor. Now, these in-place changes will not update the original tensor anymore, and will instead trigger an error. For sparse tensors: In-place indices / values changes (such as zero_ / copy_ / add_) to the returned tensor will not update the original tensor anymore, and will instead trigger an error.

Expanding a tensor does not allocate new memory, but only creates a new view on the existing tensor where a dimension of size one is expanded to a larger size by setting the stride to 0. Any dimension of size 1 can be expanded to an arbitrary value without allocating new memory.

Parameters

*sizes (torch.Size or int...) – the desired expanded size

Warning

More than one element of an expanded tensor may refer to a single memory location. As a result, in-place operations (especially ones that are vectorized) may result in incorrect behavior. If you need to write to the tensors, please clone them first.

Example:

>>> x = torch.tensor([[1], [2], [3]])
>>> x.size()
torch.Size([3, 1])
>>> x.expand(3, 4)
tensor([[ 1,  1,  1,  1],
        [ 2,  2,  2,  2],
        [ 3,  3,  3,  3]])
>>> x.expand(-1, 4)   # -1 means not changing the size of that dimension
tensor([[ 1,  1,  1,  1],
        [ 2,  2,  2,  2],
        [ 3,  3,  3,  3]])

In some circumstances when using the CUDA backend with CuDNN, this operator may select a nondeterministic algorithm to increase performance. If this is undesirable, you can try to make the operation deterministic (potentially at a performance cost) by setting torch.backends.cudnn.deterministic = True. Please see the notes on Reproducibility for background.

• index (LongTensor) – indices of tensor to select from
• tensor (Tensor) – the tensor containing values to add

The dimth dimension of tensor must have the same size as the length of index (which must be a vector), and all other dimensions must match self, or an error will be raised.

Parameters

is_leaf

All Tensors that have requires_grad which is False will be leaf Tensors by convention.

For Tensors that have requires_grad which is True, they will be leaf Tensors if they were created by the user. This means that they are not the result of an operation and so grad_fn is None.

Only leaf Tensors will have their grad populated during a call to backward(). To get grad populated for non-leaf Tensors, you can use retain_grad().

Example:

>>> a = torch.rand(10, requires_grad=True)
>>> a.is_leaf
True
>>> b = torch.rand(10, requires_grad=True).cuda()
>>> b.is_leaf
False
# b was created by the operation that cast a cpu Tensor into a cuda Tensor
>>> c = torch.rand(10, requires_grad=True) + 2
>>> c.is_leaf
False
# c was created by the addition operation
>>> d = torch.rand(10).cuda()
>>> d.is_leaf
True
# d does not require gradients and so has no operation creating it (that is tracked by the autograd engine)
>>> e = torch.rand(10).cuda().requires_grad_()
>>> e.is_leaf
True
# e requires gradients and has no operations creating it
>>> f = torch.rand(10, requires_grad=True, device="cuda")
>>> f.is_leaf
True
# f requires grad, has no operation creating it

Fills self tensor with numbers sampled from the discrete uniform distribution over [from, to - 1]. If not specified, the values are usually only bounded by self tensor’s data type. However, for floating point types, if unspecified, range will be [0, 2^mantissa] to ensure that every value is representable. For example, torch.tensor(1, dtype=torch.double).random_() will be uniform in [0, 2^53].

reciprocal() → Tensor

See torch.reciprocal()

In-place version of reciprocal()

record_stream(stream)

Ensures that the tensor memory is not reused for another tensor until all current work queued on stream are complete.

Note

The caching allocator is aware of only the stream where a tensor was allocated. Due to the awareness, it already correctly manages the life cycle of tensors on only one stream. But if a tensor is used on a stream different from the stream of origin, the allocator might reuse the memory unexpectedly. Calling this method lets the allocator know which streams have used the tensor.

register_hook(hook) [source]

Registers a backward hook.

The hook will be called every time a gradient with respect to the Tensor is computed. The hook should have the following signature:

hook(grad) -> Tensor or None

The hook should not modify its argument, but it can optionally return a new gradient which will be used in place of grad.

This function returns a handle with a method handle.remove() that removes the hook from the module.

Example:

>>> v = torch.tensor([0., 0., 0.], requires_grad=True)
>>> h = v.register_hook(lambda grad: grad * 2)  # double the gradient
>>> v.backward(torch.tensor([1., 2., 3.]))
>>> v.grad

 2
 4
 6

>>> h.remove()  # removes the hook

repeat(*sizes) → Tensor

Repeats this tensor along the specified dimensions.

Warning

repeat() behaves differently from numpy.repeat, but is more similar to numpy.tile. For the operator similar to numpy.repeat, see torch.repeat_interleave().

Parameters

sizes (torch.Size or int...) – The number of times to repeat this tensor along each dimension

Example:

>>> x = torch.tensor([1, 2, 3])
>>> x.repeat(4, 2)
tensor([[ 1,  2,  3,  1,  2,  3],
        [ 1,  2,  3,  1,  2,  3],

Change if autograd should record operations on this tensor: sets this tensor’s requires_grad attribute in-place. Returns this tensor.

requires_grad_()’s main use case is to tell autograd to begin recording operations on a Tensor tensor. If tensor has requires_grad=False (because it was obtained through a DataLoader, or required preprocessing or initialization), tensor.requires_grad_() makes it so that autograd will begin to record operations on tensor.

Parameters

requires_grad (bool) – If autograd should record operations on this tensor. Default: True.

Example:

>>> # Let's say we want to preprocess some saved weights and use
>>> # the result as new weights.
>>> saved_weights = [0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.25]
>>> loaded_weights = torch.tensor(saved_weights)
>>> weights = preprocess(loaded_weights)  # some function
>>> weights
tensor([-0.5503,  0.4926, -2.1158, -0.8303])

>>> # Now, start to record operations done to weights
>>> weights.requires_grad_()
>>> out = weights.pow(2).sum()
>>> out.backward()
>>> weights.grad
tensor([-1.1007,  0.9853, -4.2316, -1.6606])

reshape(*shape) → Tensor

Returns a tensor with the same data and number of elements as self but with the specified shape. This method returns a view if shape is compatible with the current shape. See torch.Tensor.view() on when it is possible to return a view.

See torch.reshape()

Parameters

shape (tuple of python:ints or int...) – the desired shape

reshape_as(other) → Tensor

Returns this tensor as the same shape as other. self.reshape_as(other) is equivalent to self.reshape(other.sizes()). This method returns a view if other.sizes() is compatible with the current shape. See torch.Tensor.view() on when it is possible to return a view.

Please see reshape() for more information about reshape.

Parameters

other (torch.Tensor) – The result tensor has the same shape as other.

resize_(*sizes, memory_format=torch.contiguous_format) → Tensor

Resizes self tensor to the specified size. If the number of elements is larger than the current storage size, then the underlying storage is resized to fit the new number of elements. If the number of elements is smaller, the underlying storage is not changed. Existing elements are preserved but any new memory is uninitialized.

Warning

This is a low-level method. The storage is reinterpreted as C-contiguous, ignoring the current strides (unless the target size equals the current size, in which case the tensor is left unchanged). For most purposes, you will instead want to use view(), which checks for contiguity, or reshape(), which copies data if needed. To change the size in-place with custom strides, see set_().

Parameters

• sizes (torch.Size or int...) – the desired size
• memory_format (torch.memory_format, optional) – the desired memory format of Tensor. Default: torch.contiguous_format. Note that memory format of self is going to be unaffected if self.size() matches sizes.

Example:

>>> x = torch.tensor([[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6]])
>>> x.resize_(2, 2)
tensor([[ 1,  2],
        [ 3,  4]])

resize_as_(tensor, memory_format=torch.contiguous_format) → Tensor

Resizes the self tensor to be the same size as the specified tensor. This is equivalent to self.resize_(tensor.size()).

Parameters

memory_format (torch.memory_format, optional) – the desired memory format of Tensor. Default: torch.contiguous_format. Note that memory format of self is going to be unaffected if self.size() matches tensor.size().

retain_grad() [source]

Enables .grad attribute for non-leaf Tensors.

scatter(dim, index, src) → Tensor

Out-of-place version of torch.Tensor.scatter_()

scatter_(dim, index, src, reduce=None) → Tensor

Writes all values from the tensor src into self at the indices specified in the index tensor. For each value in src, its output index is specified by its index in src for dimension != dim and by the corresponding value in index for dimension = dim.

For a 3-D tensor, self is updated as:

self[index[i][j][k]][j][k] = src[i][j][k]  # if dim == 0
self[i][index[i][j][k]][k] = src[i][j][k]  # if dim == 1
self[i][j][index[i][j][k]] = src[i][j][k]  # if dim == 2

This is the reverse operation of the manner described in gather().

self, index and src (if it is a Tensor) should have same number of dimensions. It is also required that index.size(d) <= src.size(d) for all dimensions d, and that index.size(d) <= self.size(d) for all dimensions d != dim.

Moreover, as for gather(), the values of index must be between 0 and self.size(dim) - 1 inclusive, and all values in a row along the specified dimension dim must be unique.

Additionally accepts an optional reduce argument that allows specification of an optional reduction operation, which is applied to all values in the tensor src into self at the indicies specified in the index. For each value in src, the reduction operation is applied to an index in self which is specified by its index in src for dimension != dim and by the corresponding value in index for dimension = dim.

Given a 3-D tensor and reduction using the multiplication operation, self is updated as:

self[index[i][j][k]][j][k] *= src[i][j][k]  # if dim == 0
self[i][index[i][j][k]][k] *= src[i][j][k]  # if dim == 1
self[i][j][index[i][j][k]] *= src[i][j][k]  # if dim == 2

Reducing with the addition operation is the same as using scatter_add_().

Note

Reduction is not yet implemented for the CUDA backend.

Parameters

• dim (int) – the axis along which to index
• index (LongTensor) – the indices of elements to scatter, can be either empty or the same size of src. When empty, the operation returns identity
• src (Tensor) – the source element(s) to scatter, incase value is not specified
• value (float) – the source element(s) to scatter, incase src is not specified
• reduce (string) – reduction operation to apply, can be either ‘add’ or ‘multiply’.

Example:

>>> x = torch.rand(2, 5)
>>> x
tensor([[ 0.3992,  0.2908,  0.9044,  0.4850,  0.6004],
        [ 0.5735,  0.9006,  0.6797,  0.4152,  0.1732]])
>>> torch.zeros(3, 5).scatter_(0, torch.tensor([[0, 1, 2, 0, 0], [2, 0, 0, 1, 2]]), x)
tensor([[ 0.3992,  0.9006,  0.6797,  0.4850,  0.6004],
        [ 0.0000,  0.2908,  0.0000,  0.4152,  0.0000],
        [ 0.5735,  0.0000,  0.9044,  0.0000,  0.1732]])

>>> z = torch.zeros(2, 4).scatter_(1, torch.tensor([[2], [3]]), 1.23)
>>> z
tensor([[ 0.0000,  0.0000,  1.2300,  0.0000],
        [ 0.0000,  0.0000,  0.0000,  1.2300]])

>>> z = torch.ones(2, 4).scatter_(1, torch.tensor([[2], [3]]), 1.23, reduce='multiply')
>>> z
tensor([[1.0000, 1.0000, 1.2300, 1.0000],
        [1.0000, 1.0000, 1.0000, 1.2300]])

scatter_add_(dim, index, src) → Tensor

Adds all values from the tensor other into self at the indices specified in the index tensor in a similar fashion as scatter_(). For each value in src, it is added to an index in self which is specified by its index in src for dimension != dim and by the corresponding value in index for dimension = dim.

For a 3-D tensor, self is updated as:

self[index[i][j][k]][j][k] += src[i][j][k]  # if dim == 0
self[i][index[i][j][k]][k] += src[i][j][k]  # if dim == 1
self[i][j][index[i][j][k]] += src[i][j][k]  # if dim == 2

self, index and src should have same number of dimensions. It is also required that index.size(d) <= src.size(d) for all dimensions d, and that index.size(d) <= self.size(d) for all dimensions d != dim.

Note

In some circumstances when using the CUDA backend with CuDNN, this operator may select a nondeterministic algorithm to increase performance. If this is undesirable, you can try to make the operation deterministic (potentially at a performance cost) by setting torch.backends.cudnn.deterministic = True. Please see the notes on Reproducibility for background.

Parameters

• dim (int) – the axis along which to index
• index (LongTensor) – the indices of elements to scatter and add, can be either empty or the same size of src. When empty, the operation returns identity.
• src (Tensor) – the source elements to scatter and add

Example:

>>> x = torch.rand(2, 5)
>>> x
tensor([[0.7404, 0.0427, 0.6480, 0.3806, 0.8328],
        [0.7953, 0.2009, 0.9154, 0.6782, 0.9620]])
>>> torch.ones(3, 5).scatter_add_(0, torch.tensor([[0, 1, 2, 0, 0], [2, 0, 0, 1, 2]]), x)
tensor([[1.7404, 1.2009, 1.9154, 1.3806, 1.8328],
        [1.0000, 1.0427, 1.0000, 1.6782, 1.0000],

Note

select() is equivalent to slicing. For example, tensor.select(0, index) is equivalent to tensor[index] and tensor.select(2, index) is equivalent to tensor[:,:,index].

set_(source=None, storage_offset=0, size=None, stride=None) → Tensor

Sets the underlying storage, size, and strides. If source is a tensor, self tensor will share the same storage and have the same size and strides as source. Changes to elements in one tensor will be reflected in the other.

Parameters

• source (Tensor or Storage) – the tensor or storage to use
• storage_offset (int, optional) – the offset in the storage
• size (torch.Size, optional) – the desired size. Defaults to the size of the source.

to(*args, **kwargs) → Tensor

Performs Tensor dtype and/or device conversion. A torch.dtype and torch.device are inferred from the arguments of self.to(*args, **kwargs).

Note

If the self Tensor already has the correct torch.dtype and torch.device, then self is returned. Otherwise, the returned tensor is a copy of self with the desired torch.dtype and torch.device.

Here are the ways to call to:

to(dtype, non_blocking=False, copy=False, memory_format=torch.preserve_format) → Tensor

Returns a Tensor with the specified dtype

Args:

memory_format (torch.memory_format, optional): the desired memory format of returned Tensor. Default: torch.preserve_format.

to(device=None, dtype=None, non_blocking=False, copy=False, memory_format=torch.preserve_format) → Tensor

Returns a Tensor with the specified device and (optional) dtype. If dtype is None it is inferred to be self.dtype. When non_blocking, tries to convert asynchronously with respect to the host if possible, e.g., converting a CPU Tensor with pinned memory to a CUDA Tensor. When copy is set, a new Tensor is created even when the Tensor already matches the desired conversion.

Args:

memory_format (torch.memory_format, optional): the desired memory format of returned Tensor. Default: torch.preserve_format.

to(other, non_blocking=False, copy=False) → Tensor

Returns a Tensor with same torch.dtype and torch.device as the Tensor other. When non_blocking, tries to convert asynchronously with respect to the host if possible, e.g., converting a CPU Tensor with pinned memory to a CUDA Tensor. When copy is set, a new Tensor is created even when the Tensor already matches the desired conversion.

Example:

>>> tensor = torch.randn(2, 2)  # Initially dtype=float32, device=cpu
>>> tensor.to(torch.float64)
tensor([[-0.5044,  0.0005],
        [ 0.3310, -0.0584]], dtype=torch.float64)

>>> cuda0 = torch.device('cuda:0')
>>> tensor.to(cuda0)
tensor([[-0.5044,  0.0005],

        [ 0.3310, -0.0584]], dtype=torch.float64, device='cuda:0')

>>> other = torch.randn((), dtype=torch.float64, device=cuda0)
>>> tensor.to(other, non_blocking=True)

unbind(dim=0) → seq

See torch.unbind()

unfold(dimension, size, step) → Tensor

Returns a view of the original tensor which contains all slices of size size from self tensor in the dimension dimension.

Step between two slices is given by step.

If sizedim is the size of dimension dimension for self, the size of dimension dimension in the returned tensor will be (sizedim - size) / step + 1.

An additional dimension of size size is appended in the returned tensor.

Parameters

• dimension (int) – dimension in which unfolding happens
• size (int) – the size of each slice that is unfolded
• step (int) – the step between each slice

Returns a new tensor with the same data as the self tensor but of a different shape.

The returned tensor shares the same data and must have the same number of elements, but may have a different size. For a tensor to be viewed, the new view size must be compatible with its original size and stride, i.e., each new view dimension must either be a subspace of an original dimension, or only span across original dimensions $d, d+1, \dots, d+k$ that satisfy the following contiguity-like condition that $\forall i = d, \dots, d+k-1$ ,

$$\text{stride}[i] = \text{stride}[i+1] \times \text{size}[i+1]$$

Otherwise, it will not be possible to view self tensor as shape without copying it (e.g., via contiguous()). When it is unclear whether a view() can be performed, it is advisable to use reshape(), which returns a view if the shapes are compatible, and copies (equivalent to calling contiguous()) otherwise.

Parameters

shape (torch.Size or int...) – the desired size

Example:

>>> x = torch.randn(4, 4)
>>> x.size()
torch.Size([4, 4])
>>> y = x.view(16)
>>> y.size()
torch.Size([16])
>>> z = x.view(-1, 8)  # the size -1 is inferred from other dimensions
>>> z.size()
torch.Size([2, 8])

>>> a = torch.randn(1, 2, 3, 4)
>>> a.size()
torch.Size([1, 2, 3, 4])
>>> b = a.transpose(1, 2)  # Swaps 2nd and 3rd dimension
>>> b.size()
torch.Size([1, 3, 2, 4])
>>> c = a.view(1, 3, 2, 4)  # Does not change tensor layout in memory
>>> c.size()
torch.Size([1, 3, 2, 4])
>>> torch.equal(b, c)
False

view_as(other) → Tensor

View this tensor as the same size as other. self.view_as(other) is equivalent to self.view(other.size()).

Please see view() for more information about view.

Parameters

other (torch.Tensor) – The result tensor has the same size as other.

where(condition, y) → Tensor

self.where(condition, y) is equivalent to torch.where(condition, self, y). See torch.where()

zero_() → Tensor

Fills self tensor with zeros.

class torch.BoolTensor

The following methods are unique to torch.BoolTensor.

all()

all() → bool

Returns True if all elements in the tensor are True, False otherwise.

Example:

>>> a = torch.rand(1, 2).bool()
>>> a
tensor([[False, True]], dtype=torch.bool)
>>> a.all()
tensor(False, dtype=torch.bool)

all(dim, keepdim=False, out=None) → Tensor

Returns True if all elements in each row of the tensor in the given dimension dim are True, False otherwise.

If keepdim is True, the output tensor is of the same size as input except in the dimension dim where it is of size 1. Otherwise, dim is squeezed (see torch.squeeze()), resulting in the output tensor having 1 fewer dimension than input.

Parameters

• dim (int) – the dimension to reduce
• keepdim (bool) – whether the output tensor has dim retained or not
• out (Tensor, optional) – the output tensor

Example:

>>> a = torch.rand(4, 2).bool()
>>> a
tensor([[True, True],
        [True, False],
        [True, True],
        [True, True]], dtype=torch.bool)
>>> a.all(dim=1)
tensor([ True, False,  True,  True], dtype=torch.bool)
>>> a.all(dim=0)
tensor([ True, False], dtype=torch.bool)

any()

any() → bool

Returns True if any elements in the tensor are True, False otherwise.

Example:

>>> a = torch.rand(1, 2).bool()
>>> a
tensor([[False, True]], dtype=torch.bool)
>>> a.any()
tensor(True, dtype=torch.bool)

any(dim, keepdim=False, out=None) → Tensor

Returns True if any elements in each row of the tensor in the given dimension dim are True, False otherwise.

If keepdim is True, the output tensor is of the same size as input except in the dimension dim where it is of size 1. Otherwise, dim is squeezed (see torch.squeeze()), resulting in the output tensor having 1 fewer dimension than input.

Parameters

• dim (int) – the dimension to reduce
• keepdim (bool) – whether the output tensor has dim retained or not
• out (Tensor, optional) – the output tensor

Example:

>>> a = torch.randn(4, 2) < 0
>>> a
tensor([[ True,  True],
        [False,  True],
        [ True,  True],
        [False, False]])
>>> a.any(1)
tensor([ True,  True,  True, False])
>>> a.any(0)
tensor([True, True])
