TensorFlow API TensorFlow v2.4.0 Python tf.compat.v1.data.make_initializable_iterator View source on GitHub Creates an iterator for elements of dataset. tf.compat.v1.data.make_initializable_iterator( dataset, shared_name=None ) dataset = ... iterator = tf.compat.v1.data.make_initializable_iterator(dataset) # ... sess.run(iterator.initializer) Args dataset A tf.data.Dataset. shared_name (Optional.) If non-empty, the returned iterator will be shared under the given name across multiple sessions that share the same devices (e.g. when using a remote server).
