tf.sparse.mask

Masks elements of IndexedSlices.

Given an IndexedSlices instance a, returns another IndexedSlices that contains a subset of the slices of a. Only the slices at indices not specified in mask_indices are returned.

This is useful when you need to extract a subset of slices in an IndexedSlices object.

For example:

# `a` contains slices at indices [12, 26, 37, 45] from a large tensor
# with shape [1000, 10]
a.indices  # [12, 26, 37, 45]
tf.shape(a.values)  # [4, 10]

# `b` will be the subset of `a` slices at its second and third indices, so
# we want to mask its first and last indices (which are at absolute
# indices 12, 45)
b = tf.sparse.mask(a, [12, 45])

b.indices  # [26, 37]
tf.shape(b.values)  # [2, 10]
Args
a An IndexedSlices instance.
mask_indices Indices of elements to mask.
name A name for the operation (optional).
Returns
The masked IndexedSlices instance.
