The Glorot normal initializer, also called Xavier normal initializer.
Inherits From: VarianceScaling
, Initializer
tf.keras.initializers.GlorotNormal(
seed=None
)
Also available via the shortcut function
tf.keras.initializers.glorot_normal
.
Draws samples from a truncated normal distribution centered on 0 with
stddev = sqrt(2 / (fan_in + fan_out))
where fan_in
is the number of
input units in the weight tensor and fan_out
is the number of output units
in the weight tensor.
Examples:
# Standalone usage:
initializer = tf.keras.initializers.GlorotNormal()
values = initializer(shape=(2, 2))
# Usage in a Keras layer:
initializer = tf.keras.initializers.GlorotNormal()
layer = tf.keras.layers.Dense(3, kernel_initializer=initializer)
Args |
seed
|
A Python integer. Used to make the behavior of the initializer
deterministic. Note that a seeded initializer will not produce the same
random values across multiple calls, but multiple initializers will
produce the same sequence when constructed with the same seed value.

Methods
from_config
View source
@classmethod
from_config(
config
)
Instantiates an initializer from a configuration dictionary.
Example:
initializer = RandomUniform(-1, 1)
config = initializer.get_config()
initializer = RandomUniform.from_config(config)
Args |
config
|
A Python dictionary, the output of get_config() .
|
Returns |
An Initializer instance.
|
get_config
View source
get_config()
Returns the initializer's configuration as a JSON-serializable dict.
Returns |
A JSON-serializable Python dict.
|
__call__
View source
__call__(
shape, dtype=None, **kwargs
)
Returns a tensor object initialized as specified by the initializer.
