<p><code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">SelectedRows</span></code> is a kind of sparse tensor data type, which is designed to support <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">embedding</span></code> operators. The gradient of embedding table is a sparse tensor. Only a few rows are non-zero values in that tensor. It is straightforward to represent the sparse tensor by the following sparse tensor data structure:</p>
<div class="highlight-cpp"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">class</span> <span class="nc">SelectedRows</span> <span class="p">{</span>
 <span class="k">private</span><span class="o">:</span>

  <span class="kt">int</span> <span class="n">height_</span><span class="p">;</span>
<span class="p">};</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The field <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">height_</span></code> shows the first dimension of <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">SelectedRows</span></code>. The <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">rows</span></code> are the indices of which rows of <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">SelectedRows</span></code> are non-zeros. The <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">value_</span></code> field is an N-dim tensor and shape is <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">[rows.size()</span> <span class="pre">/*</span> <span class="pre">NUM_ROWS</span> <span class="pre">*/,</span> <span class="pre">...]</span></code>, which supplies values for each row. The dimension of <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">SelectedRows</span></code> satisfies <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">[height_]</span> <span class="pre">+</span> <span class="pre">value_.shape[1:]</span></code>.</p>
<p>Suppose that a SelectedRows-typed variable <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">x</span></code> has many rows, but only two of them have values &#8211; row 73 is <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">[1,</span> <span class="pre">2]</span></code> and row 84 is <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">[3,</span> <span class="pre">4]</span></code>, the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">SelectedRows</span></code> representation would be:</p>
