tf.keras.constraints.MaxNorm

MaxNorm weight constraint.

Inherits From: Constraint

Constrains the weights incident to each hidden unit to have a norm less than or equal to a desired value.

Also available via the shortcut function keras.constraints.max_norm.

max_value the maximum norm value for the incoming weights.
axis integer, axis along which to calculate weight norms. For instance, in a Dense layer the weight matrix has shape (input_dim, output_dim), set axis to 0 to constrain each weight vector of length (input_dim,). In a Conv2D layer with data_format="channels_last", the weight tensor has shape (rows, cols, input_depth, output_depth), set axis to [0, 1, 2] to constrain the weights of each filter tensor of size (rows, cols, input_depth).

Methods

from_config

View source

Instantiates a weight constraint from a configuration dictionary.

Example:

constraint = UnitNorm()
config = constraint.get_config()
constraint = UnitNorm.from_config(config)

Args
config A Python dictionary, the output of get_config().

Returns
A keras.constraints.Constraint instance.

get_config

View source

Returns a Python dict of the object config.

A constraint config is a Python dictionary (JSON-serializable) that can be used to reinstantiate the same object.

Returns
Python dict containing the configuration of the constraint object.

__call__

View source

Applies the constraint to the input weight variable.

By default, the inputs weight variable is not modified. Users should override this method to implement their own projection function.

Args
w Input weight variable.

Returns
Projected variable (by default, returns unmodified inputs).
