sign¶

paddle.fluid.layers.nn. sign ( x ) [source]

This OP returns sign of every element in x: 1 for positive, -1 for negative and 0 for zero.

Parameters

x (Variable|numpy.ndarray) – The input variable could be N-D tensor or N-D numpy array, the input data type is float32 or float64.

Returns

The output sign tensor with identical shape to input x.

Return type

Variable, the output data type is the same as input data type.

Examples

import paddle.fluid as fluid
import numpy as np

# [1.0, 0.0, -1.0]
data = fluid.layers.sign(np.array([3.0, 0.0, -2.0], dtype='float32'))
