tf.keras.layers.ConvLSTM2D

Class ConvLSTM2D

Defined in tensorflow/python/keras/_impl/keras/layers/convolutional_recurrent.py.

Convolutional LSTM.

It is similar to an LSTM layer, but the input transformations and recurrent transformations are both convolutional.

Arguments:

• filters: Integer, the dimensionality of the output space (i.e. the number output of filters in the convolution).
• kernel_size: An integer or tuple/list of n integers, specifying the dimensions of the convolution window.
• strides: An integer or tuple/list of n integers, specifying the strides of the convolution. Specifying any stride value != 1 is incompatible with specifying any dilation_rate value != 1.
• padding: One of "valid" or "same" (case-insensitive).
• data_format: A string, one of channels_last (default) or channels_first. The ordering of the dimensions in the inputs. channels_last corresponds to inputs with shape (batch, time, ..., channels) while channels_first corresponds to inputs with shape (batch, time, channels, ...). It defaults to the image_data_format value found in your Keras config file at ~/.keras/keras.json. If you never set it, then it will be "channels_last".
• dilation_rate: An integer or tuple/list of n integers, specifying the dilation rate to use for dilated convolution. Currently, specifying any dilation_rate value != 1 is incompatible with specifying any strides value != 1.
• activation: Activation function to use. If you don't specify anything, no activation is applied (ie. "linear" activation: a(x) = x).
• recurrent_activation: Activation function to use for the recurrent step.
• use_bias: Boolean, whether the layer uses a bias vector.
• kernel_initializer: Initializer for the kernel weights matrix, used for the linear transformation of the inputs.
• recurrent_initializer: Initializer for the recurrent_kernel weights matrix, used for the linear transformation of the recurrent state.
• bias_initializer: Initializer for the bias vector.
• unit_forget_bias: Boolean. If True, add 1 to the bias of the forget gate at initialization. Use in combination with bias_initializer="zeros". This is recommended in [Jozefowicz et al.] (http://www.jmlr.org/proceedings/papers/v37/jozefowicz15.pdf)
• kernel_regularizer: Regularizer function applied to the kernel weights matrix.
• recurrent_regularizer: Regularizer function applied to the recurrent_kernel weights matrix.
• bias_regularizer: Regularizer function applied to the bias vector.
• activity_regularizer: Regularizer function applied to.
• kernel_constraint: Constraint function applied to the kernel weights matrix.
• recurrent_constraint: Constraint function applied to the recurrent_kernel weights matrix.
• bias_constraint: Constraint function applied to the bias vector.
• return_sequences: Boolean. Whether to return the last output in the output sequence, or the full sequence.
• go_backwards: Boolean (default False). If True, process the input sequence backwards.
• stateful: Boolean (default False). If True, the last state for each sample at index i in a batch will be used as initial state for the sample of index i in the following batch.
• dropout: Float between 0 and 1. Fraction of the units to drop for the linear transformation of the inputs.
• recurrent_dropout: Float between 0 and 1. Fraction of the units to drop for the linear transformation of the recurrent state.

Input shape: - if data_format='channels_first' 5D tensor with shape: (samples,time, channels, rows, cols) - if data_format='channels_last' 5D tensor with shape: (samples,time, rows, cols, channels)

Output shape: - if return_sequences - if data_format='channels_first' 5D tensor with shape: (samples, time, filters, output_row, output_col) - if data_format='channels_last' 5D tensor with shape: (samples, time, output_row, output_col, filters) - else - if data_format ='channels_first' 4D tensor with shape: (samples, filters, output_row, output_col) - if data_format='channels_last' 4D tensor with shape: (samples, output_row, output_col, filters) where o_row and o_col depend on the shape of the filter and the padding

Raises:

• ValueError: in case of invalid constructor arguments.

    recurrent_initializer='orthogonal',
    bias_initializer='zeros',

    return_sequences=False,
    go_backwards=False,
    stateful=False,
    dropout=0.0,
    recurrent_dropout=0.0,
    **kwargs
)

Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

__call__

__call__(
    inputs,
    initial_state=None,
    constants=None,
    **kwargs
)

Wrapper around self.call(), for handling internal references.

If a Keras tensor is passed: - We call self._add_inbound_node(). - If necessary, we build the layer to match the shape of the input(s). - We update the _keras_history of the output tensor(s) with the current layer. This is done as part of _add_inbound_node().

Arguments:

• inputs: Can be a tensor or list/tuple of tensors.
• *args: Additional positional arguments to be passed to call(). Only allowed in subclassed Models with custom call() signatures. In other cases, Layer inputs must be passed using the inputs argument and non-inputs must be keyword arguments.
• **kwargs: Additional keyword arguments to be passed to call().

Returns:

Output of the layer's call method.

Raises:

• ValueError: in case the layer is missing shape information for its build call.
• TypeError: If positional arguments are passed and this Layer is not a subclassed Model.

__deepcopy__

__deepcopy__(memo)

add_loss

add_loss(
    losses,
    inputs=None
)

Add loss tensor(s), potentially dependent on layer inputs.

Some losses (for instance, activity regularization losses) may be dependent on the inputs passed when calling a layer. Hence, when reusing the same layer on different inputs a and b, some entries in layer.losses may be dependent on a and some on b. This method automatically keeps track of dependencies.

The get_losses_for method allows to retrieve the losses relevant to a specific set of inputs.

Note that add_loss is not supported when executing eagerly. Instead, variable regularizers may be added through add_variable. Activity regularization is not supported directly (but such losses may be returned from Layer.call()).

Arguments:

• losses: Loss tensor, or list/tuple of tensors.
• inputs: If anything other than None is passed, it signals the losses are conditional on some of the layer's inputs, and thus they should only be run where these inputs are available. This is the case for activity regularization losses, for instance. If None is passed, the losses are assumed to be unconditional, and will apply across all dataflows of the layer (e.g. weight regularization losses).

Raises:

• RuntimeError: If called in Eager mode.

add_update

add_update(
    updates,
    inputs=None
)

Add update op(s), potentially dependent on layer inputs.

Weight updates (for instance, the updates of the moving mean and variance in a BatchNormalization layer) may be dependent on the inputs passed when calling a layer. Hence, when reusing the same layer on different inputs a and b, some entries in layer.updates may be dependent on a and some on b. This method automatically keeps track of dependencies.

The get_updates_for method allows to retrieve the updates relevant to a specific set of inputs.

This call is ignored in Eager mode.

Arguments:

• updates: Update op, or list/tuple of update ops.
• inputs: If anything other than None is passed, it signals the updates are conditional on some of the layer's inputs, and thus they should only be run where these inputs are available. This is the case for BatchNormalization updates, for instance. If None, the updates will be taken into account unconditionally, and you are responsible for making sure that any dependency they might have is available at runtime. A step counter might fall into this category.

add_variable

add_variable(
    name,
    shape,
    dtype=None,
    initializer=None,
    regularizer=None,
    trainable=True,
    constraint=None,
    partitioner=None
)

Adds a new variable to the layer, or gets an existing one; returns it.

Arguments:

• name: variable name.
• shape: variable shape.
• dtype: The type of the variable. Defaults to self.dtype or float32.
• initializer: initializer instance (callable).
• regularizer: regularizer instance (callable).
• trainable: whether the variable should be part of the layer's "trainable_variables" (e.g. variables, biases) or "non_trainable_variables" (e.g. BatchNorm mean, stddev). Note, if the current variable scope is marked as non-trainable then this parameter is ignored and any added variables are also marked as non-trainable.
• constraint: constraint instance (callable).
• partitioner: (optional) partitioner instance (callable). If provided, when the requested variable is created it will be split into multiple partitions according to partitioner. In this case, an instance of PartitionedVariable is returned. Available partitioners include tf.fixed_size_partitioner and tf.variable_axis_size_partitioner. For more details, see the documentation of tf.get_variable and the "Variable Partitioners and Sharding" section of the API guide.

Returns:

The created variable. Usually either a Variable or ResourceVariable instance. If partitioner is not None, a PartitionedVariable instance is returned.

Raises:

• RuntimeError: If called with partioned variable regularization and eager execution is enabled.

add_weight

add_weight(
    name,
    shape,
    dtype=None,
    initializer=None,
    regularizer=None,
    trainable=True,
    constraint=None
)

Adds a weight variable to the layer.

Arguments:

• name: String, the name for the weight variable.
• shape: The shape tuple of the weight.
• dtype: The dtype of the weight.
• initializer: An Initializer instance (callable).
• regularizer: An optional Regularizer instance.
• trainable: A boolean, whether the weight should be trained via backprop or not (assuming that the layer itself is also trainable).
• constraint: An optional Constraint instance.

Returns:

The created weight variable.

apply

apply(
    inputs,
    *args,
    **kwargs
)

Apply the layer on a input.

This simply wraps self.__call__.

)

This is where the layer's logic lives.

Arguments:

• inputs: Input tensor, or list/tuple of input tensors.
• **kwargs: Additional keyword arguments.

Returns:

A tensor or list/tuple of tensors.

compute_mask

compute_mask(
    inputs,
    mask
)

Computes an output mask tensor.

Arguments:

from_config

@classmethod
from_config(
    cls,
    config
)

Creates a layer from its config.

This method is the reverse of get_config, capable of instantiating the same layer from the config dictionary. It does not handle layer connectivity (handled by Network), nor weights (handled by set_weights).

Arguments:

• config: A Python dictionary, typically the output of get_config.

Returns:

A layer instance.

get_config

get_config()

Returns the config of the layer.

A layer config is a Python dictionary (serializable) containing the configuration of a layer. The same layer can be reinstantiated later (without its trained weights) from this configuration.

The config of a layer does not include connectivity information, nor the layer class name. These are handled by Network (one layer of abstraction above).

Returns:

Python dictionary.
