Static Graph

Create a LoDTensor containing random integers.

The implementation is as follows:

  1. Obtain the shape of output LoDTensor based on recursive_seq_lens and base_shape . The first dimension of the shape is the total length of sequences, while the other dimensions are the same as base_shape .

  2. Create a numpy array of random integers, and parse the created numpy array as parameter data of api_fluid_create_lod_tensor to create the output LoDTensor.

Suppose we want to create a LoDTensor to hold data for 2 sequences, where the dimension of the sequences are [2, 30] and [3, 30] respectively. The recursive_seq_lens would be [[2, 3]], and base_shape would be [30] (the other dimensions excluding the sequence length). Therefore, the shape of the output LoDTensor would be [5, 30], where the first dimension 5 is the total lengths of the sequences, and the other dimensions are base_shape.

Parameters
  • recursive_seq_lens (list[list[int]]) – a list of lists indicating the length-based LoD info.

  • base_shape (list[int]) – the shape of the output LoDTensor excluding the first dimension.

  • place (CPUPlace|CUDAPlace) – CPU or GPU place indicating where the data in the created LoDTensor will be stored.

  • low (int) – the lower bound of the random integers.

  • high (int) – the upper bound of the random integers.

Returns

A LoDTensor with tensor data and recursive_seq_lens info, whose data is inside [low, high].

Examples

import paddle.fluid as fluid

t = fluid.create_random_int_lodtensor(recursive_seq_lens=[[2, 3]],
          base_shape=[30], place=fluid.CPUPlace(), low=0, high=10)
print(t.shape()) # [5, 30]
