tfc.distributions.lower_tail
Approximates lower tail quantile for range coding.
tfc.distributions.lower_tail(
distribution, tail_mass
)
For range coding of random variables, the distribution tails need special
handling, because range coding can only handle alphabets with a finite
number of symbols. This method returns a cut-off location for the lower
tail, such that approximately tail_mass
probability mass is contained in
the tails (together). The tails are then handled by using the 'overflow'
functionality of the range coder implementation (using an Elias gamma code).
Returns |
A tf.Tensor broadcastable to shape self.batch_shape containing the
approximate lower tail quantiles for each scalar distribution.
