[3, 4, 5]])

>> axis = [1, 0] >> output = input.transpose(axis) >> output array([[0, 3],

                 [0, 1,    3, 4]]
        x.data = [a, b, c, d]
        x.dims = [4, 1]

    y is a LoDTensor:
        y.lod = [[0,    2,    4],
                 [0, 3, 6, 7, 8]]

    with condition len(y.lod[-1]) - 1 == x.dims[0]

    then output is a 2-level LoDTensor:
        out.lod = [[0,                2,    4],
                   [0,       3,       6, 7, 8]]
        out.data = [a, a, a, b, b, b, c, d]
        out.dims = [8, 1]

* Case 2

        x.dims = [3, 1]

    y is a LoDTensor:
        y.lod = [[0, 2, 3, 6]]

    with condition len(y.lod[-1]) - 1 == x.dims[0]

y = fluid.layers.data(name='y', shape=[10, 20],
                 dtype='float32', lod_level=1)

lstm_unit¶

paddle.v2.fluid.layers.lstm_unit(x_t, hidden_t_prev, cell_t_prev, forget_bias=0.0, param_attr=None, bias_attr=None)

Lstm unit layer. The equation of a lstm step is:

\[ \begin{align}\begin{aligned}i_t & = \sigma(W_{x_i}x_{t} + W_{h_i}h_{t-1} + W_{c_i}c_{t-1} + b_i)\\f_t & = \sigma(W_{x_f}x_{t} + W_{h_f}h_{t-1} + W_{c_f}c_{t-1} + b_f)\\c_t & = f_tc_{t-1} + i_t tanh (W_{x_c}x_t+W_{h_c}h_{t-1} + b_c)\\o_t & = \sigma(W_{x_o}x_{t} + W_{h_o}h_{t-1} + W_{c_o}c_t + b_o)\\h_t & = o_t tanh(c_t)\end{aligned}\end{align} \]

The inputs of lstm unit includes $x_t$, $h_{t-1}$ and $c_{t-1}$. The implementation separates the linear transformation and non-linear transformation apart. Here, we take $i_t$ as an example. The linear transformation is applied by calling a fc layer and the equation is:

\[L_{i_t} = W_{x_i}x_{t} + W_{h_i}h_{t-1} + W_{c_i}c_{t-1} + b_i\]

The non-linear transformation is applied by calling lstm_unit_op and the equation is:

Examples

x_t = fluid.layers.fc(input=x_t_data, size=10)
prev_hidden = fluid.layers.fc(input=prev_hidden_data, size=20)
prev_cell = fluid.layers.fc(input=prev_cell_data, size=30)
hidden_value, cell_value = fluid.layers.lstm_unit(x_t=x_t,
                                       hidden_t_prev=prev_hidden,
                                       cell_t_prev=prev_cell)

sequence_softmax¶

paddle.v2.fluid.layers.sequence_softmax(**kwargs)

Sequence Softmax Operator.

SequenceSoftmaxOp computes the softmax activation among all time-steps for each sequence. The dimension of each time-step should be 1. Thus, the shape of input Tensor can be either [N, 1] or [N], where N is the sum of the length of all sequences.

The algorithm works as follows:

for i-th sequence in a mini-batch:

$$ Out(X[lod[i]:lod[i+1]], :) = frac{exp(X[lod[i]:lod[i+1], :])} {sum(exp(X[lod[i]:lod[i+1], :]))} $$

For example, for a mini-batch of 3 sequences with variable-length, each containing 2, 3, 2 time-steps, the lod of which is [0, 2, 5, 7], then softmax will be computed among X[0:2, :], X[2:5, :], X[5:7, :] and N turns out to be 7.

If $dim < 0$, the dimension to reduce is $rank + dim$. keep_dim (bool) – Whether to reserve the reduced dimension in the output Tensor. The result tensor will have one fewer dimension than the `input` unless `keep_dim` is true.

# x is a Tensor variable with following elements:
#    [[0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 0.9]
#     [0.1, 0.2, 0.6, 0.7]]
# Each example is followed by the correspending output tensor.
fluid.layers.reduce_sum(x)  # [3.5]
fluid.layers.reduce_sum(x, dim=0)  # [0.3, 0.5, 1.1, 1.6]
fluid.layers.reduce_sum(x, dim=-1)  # [1.9, 1.6]
fluid.layers.reduce_sum(x, dim=1, keep_dim=True)  # [[1.9], [1.6]]
