Random operations

[source]

beta function

keras.random.beta(shape, alpha, beta, dtype=None, seed=None)

Draw samples from a Beta distribution.

The values are drawm from a Beta distribution parametrized by alpha and beta.

Arguments

  • shape: The shape of the random values to generate.
  • alpha: Float or an array of floats representing the first parameter alpha. Must be broadcastable with beta and shape.
  • beta: Float or an array of floats representing the second parameter beta. Must be broadcastable with alpha and shape.
  • dtype: Optional dtype of the tensor. Only floating point types are supported. If not specified, keras.config.floatx() is used, which defaults to float32 unless you configured it otherwise (via keras.config.set_floatx(float_dtype)).
  • seed: A Python integer or instance of keras.random.SeedGenerator. Used to make the behavior of the initializer deterministic. Note that an initializer seeded with an integer or None (unseeded) will produce the same random values across multiple calls. To get different random values across multiple calls, use as seed an instance of keras.random.SeedGenerator.

binomial function

keras.random.binomial(shape, counts, probabilities, dtype=None, seed=None)

Draw samples from a Binomial distribution.

The values are drawn from a Binomial distribution with specified trial count and probability of success.

Arguments

  • shape: The shape of the random values to generate.
  • counts: A number or array of numbers representing the number of trials. It must be broadcastable with probabilities.
  • probabilities: A float or array of floats representing the probability of success of an individual event. It must be broadcastable with counts.
  • dtype: Optional dtype of the tensor. Only floating point types are supported. If not specified, keras.config.floatx() is used, which defaults to float32 unless you configured it otherwise (via keras.config.set_floatx(float_dtype)).
  • seed: A Python integer or instance of keras.random.SeedGenerator. Used to make the behavior of the initializer deterministic. Note that an initializer seeded with an integer or None (unseeded) will produce the same random values across multiple calls. To get different random values across multiple calls, use as seed an instance of keras.random.SeedGenerator.

categorical function

keras.random.categorical(logits, num_samples, dtype="int32", seed=None)

Draws samples from a categorical distribution.

This function takes as input logits, a 2-D input tensor with shape (batch_size, num_classes). Each row of the input represents a categorical distribution, with each column index containing the log-probability for a given class.

The function will output a 2-D tensor with shape (batch_size, num_samples), where each row contains samples from the corresponding row in logits. Each column index contains an independent samples drawn from the input distribution.

Arguments

  • logits: 2-D Tensor with shape (batch_size, num_classes). Each row should define a categorical distribution with the unnormalized log-probabilities for all classes.
  • num_samples: Int, the number of independent samples to draw for each row of the input. This will be the second dimension of the output tensor's shape.
  • dtype: Optional dtype of the output tensor.
  • seed: A Python integer or instance of keras.random.SeedGenerator. Used to make the behavior of the initializer deterministic. Note that an initializer seeded with an integer or None (unseeded) will produce the same random values across multiple calls. To get different random values across multiple calls, use as seed an instance of keras.random.SeedGenerator.

Returns

A 2-D tensor with (batch_size, num_samples).

dropout function

Arguments

  • shape: The shape of the random values to generate.

  • dtype: Optional dtype of the tensor. Only floating point types are supported. If not specified, keras.config.floatx() is used, which defaults to float32 unless you configured it otherwise (via keras.config.set_floatx(float_dtype)).
  • seed: A Python integer or instance of keras.random.SeedGenerator. Used to make the behavior of the initializer deterministic. Note that an initializer seeded with an integer or None (unseeded) will produce the same random values across multiple calls. To get different random values across multiple calls, use as seed an instance of keras.random.SeedGenerator.

  • seed: A Python integer or instance of keras.random.SeedGenerator. Used to make the behavior of the initializer deterministic. Note that an initializer seeded with an integer or None (unseeded) will produce the same random values across multiple calls.
