However, using the Tanh bijector directly is slightly faster and more
numerically stable.
Args
graph_parents
Python list of graph prerequisites of this Bijector.
is_constant_jacobian
Python bool indicating that the Jacobian matrix is
not a function of the input.
validate_args
Python bool, default False. Whether to validate input
with asserts. If validate_args is False, and the inputs are invalid,
correct behavior is not guaranteed.
dtype
tf.dtype supported by this Bijector. None means dtype is not
enforced. For multipart bijectors, this value is expected to be the
same for all elements of the input and output structures.
forward_min_event_ndims
Python integer (structure) indicating the
minimum number of dimensions on which forward operates.
inverse_min_event_ndims
Python integer (structure) indicating the
minimum number of dimensions on which inverse operates. Will be set to
forward_min_event_ndims by default, if no value is provided.
experimental_use_kahan_sum
Python bool. When True, use Kahan
summation to aggregate log-det jacobians from independent underlying
log-det jacobian values, which improves against the precision of a naive
float32 sum. This can be noticeable in particular for large dimensions
in float32. See CPU caveat on tfp.math.reduce_kahan_sum.
parameters
Python dict of parameters used to instantiate this
Bijector. Bijector instances with identical types, names, and
parameters share an input/output cache. parameters dicts are
keyed by strings and are identical if their keys are identical and if
corresponding values have identical hashes (or object ids, for
unhashable objects).
name
The name to give Ops created by the initializer.
Raises
ValueError
If neither forward_min_event_ndims and
inverse_min_event_ndims are specified, or if either of them is
negative.
ValueError
If a member of graph_parents is not a Tensor.
Attributes
dtype
forward_min_event_ndims
Returns the minimal number of dimensions bijector.forward operates on.
Multipart bijectors return structured ndims, which indicates the
expected structure of their inputs. Some multipart bijectors, notably
Composites, may return structures of None.
graph_parents
Returns this Bijector's graph_parents as a Python list.
inverse_min_event_ndims
Returns the minimal number of dimensions bijector.inverse operates on.
Multipart bijectors return structured event_ndims, which indicates the
expected structure of their outputs. Some multipart bijectors, notably
Composites, may return structures of None.

Returns true iff the Jacobian matrix is not a function of x.
parameters
Dictionary of parameters used to instantiate this Bijector.

Returns True if Tensor arguments will be validated.
Methods
copy
copy(**override_parameters_kwargs)
Creates a copy of the bijector.
Args
**override_parameters_kwargs
String/value dictionary of initialization
arguments to override with new values.
Returns
bijector
A new instance of type(self) initialized from the union
of self.parameters and override_parameters_kwargs, i.e.,
dict(self.parameters, **override_parameters_kwargs).
Returns the batch shape of this bijector for inputs of the given rank.
The batch shape of a bijector decribes the set of distinct
transformations it represents on events of a given size. For example: the
bijector tfb.Scale([1., 2.]) has batch shape [2] for scalar events
(event_ndims = 0), because applying it to a scalar event produces
two scalar outputs, the result of two different scaling transformations.
The same bijector has batch shape [] for vector events, because applying
it to a vector produces (via elementwise multiplication) a single vector
output.
Bijectors that operate independently on multiple state parts, such as
tfb.JointMap, must broadcast to a coherent batch shape. Some events may
not be valid: for example, the bijector
tfd.JointMap([tfb.Scale([1., 2.]), tfb.Scale([1., 2., 3.])]) does not
produce a valid batch shape when event_ndims = [0, 0], since the batch
shapes of the two parts are inconsistent. The same bijector
does define valid batch shapes of [], [2], and [3] if event_ndims
is [1, 1], [0, 1], or [1, 0], respectively.
Since transforming a single event produces a scalar log-det-Jacobian, the
batch shape of a bijector with non-constant Jacobian is expected to equal
the shape of forward_log_det_jacobian(x, event_ndims=x_event_ndims)
or inverse_log_det_jacobian(y, event_ndims=y_event_ndims), for x
or y of the specified ndims.
Args
x_event_ndims
Optional Python int (structure) number of dimensions in
a probabilistic event passed to forward; this must be greater than
or equal to self.forward_min_event_ndims. If None, defaults to
self.forward_min_event_ndims. Mutually exclusive with y_event_ndims.
Default value: None.
y_event_ndims
Optional Python int (structure) number of dimensions in
a probabilistic event passed to inverse; this must be greater than
or equal to self.inverse_min_event_ndims. Mutually exclusive with
x_event_ndims.
Default value: None.
Returns
batch_shape
TensorShape batch shape of this bijector for a
value with the given event rank. May be unknown or partially defined.
Returns the batch shape of this bijector for inputs of the given rank.
The batch shape of a bijector decribes the set of distinct
transformations it represents on events of a given size. For example: the
bijector tfb.Scale([1., 2.]) has batch shape [2] for scalar events

two scalar outputs, the result of two different scaling transformations.

or inverse_log_det_jacobian(y, event_ndims=y_event_ndims), for x
or y of the specified ndims.
Args
x_event_ndims
Optional Python int (structure) number of dimensions in
a probabilistic event passed to forward; this must be greater than
or equal to self.forward_min_event_ndims. If None, defaults to
self.forward_min_event_ndims. Mutually exclusive with y_event_ndims.
Default value: None.
y_event_ndims
Optional Python int (structure) number of dimensions in
a probabilistic event passed to inverse; this must be greater than
or equal to self.inverse_min_event_ndims. Mutually exclusive with
x_event_ndims.
Default value: None.
Returns
batch_shape_tensor
integer Tensor batch shape of this bijector for a
value with the given event rank.
Density correction for this transformation wrt the tangent space, at x.
Subclasses of Bijector may call the most specific applicable
method of TangentSpace, based on whether the transformation is
dimension-preserving, coordinate-wise, a projection, or something
more general. The backward-compatible assumption is that the
transformation is dimension-preserving (goes from R^n to R^n).
Args
x
Tensor (structure). The point at which to calculate the density.
tangent_space
TangentSpace or one of its subclasses. The tangent to
the support manifold at x.

is dimension-preserving.
**kwargs
Optional keyword arguments forwarded to tangent space methods.
Returns
density_correction
Tensor representing the density correction---in log
space---under the transformation that this Bijector denotes.
Raises
TypeError if backward_compat is False but no method of
TangentSpace has been called explicitly.
forward
forward(x,name='forward',**kwargs)

self.dtype.

forward_event_ndims
forward_event_ndims(event_ndims,**kwargs)
Returns the number of event dimensions produced by forward.
Args

values. The structure should match that of
self.forward_min_event_ndims, and all non-None values must be
greater than or equal to the corresponding value in
self.forward_min_event_ndims.
**kwargs
Optional keyword arguments forwarded to nested bijectors.
Returns
forward_event_ndims
Structure of integers and/or None values matching
self.inverse_min_event_ndims. These are computed using 'prefer static'
semantics: if any inputs are None, some or all of the outputs may be
None, indicating that the output dimension could not be inferred
(conversely, if all inputs are non-None, all outputs will be
non-None). If all input event_ndims are Python ints, all of the
(non-None) outputs will be Python ints; otherwise, some or
all of the outputs may be Tensorints.

event-portion shape after applying forward. Possibly unknown.

evaluation.
event_ndims

(if event_ndims is None), no reduction is performed.
Multipart bijectors require structured event_ndims, such that the
batch rank rank(y[i]) - event_ndims[i] is the same for all
elements i of the structured input. In most cases (with the
exception of tfb.JointMap) they further require that
event_ndims[i] - self.inverse_min_event_ndims[i] is the same for
all elements i of the structured input.
Default value: None (equivalent to self.forward_min_event_ndims).

**kwargs
Optional keyword arguments forwarded to nested bijectors.
Returns
inverse_event_ndims
Structure of integers and/or None values matching
self.forward_min_event_ndims. These are computed using 'prefer static'
semantics: if any inputs are None, some or all of the outputs may be
None, indicating that the output dimension could not be inferred
(conversely, if all inputs are non-None, all outputs will be
non-None). If all input event_ndims are Python ints, all of the
(non-None) outputs will be Python ints; otherwise, some or
all of the outputs may be Tensorints.

evaluation.
event_ndims
Optional number of dimensions in the probabilistic events

log Jacobian determinant is summed to produce a
scalar log-determinant for each event. Otherwise
(if event_ndims is None), no reduction is performed.
Multipart bijectors require structured event_ndims, such that the
