tf.contrib.distribute.StandardSingleLossStep

Class StandardSingleLossStep

Inherits From: StandardInputStep

Defined in tensorflow/contrib/distribute/python/step_fn.py.

A step function that implements a training step for a feed forward network.

An instance of this class is intended to be used as a callable:

...
step = step_fn.StandardSingleLossStep(
    dataset, loss_fn, optimizer, distribution)

# Run a single training step on a given DistributionStrategy:
step(distribution)
...

Args:

  • dataset_fn: a function that returns a tf.data Dataset that produces the input for the model.
  • loss_fn: a function that takes a context and inputs as arguments. It returns the loss for those inputs. context is an instance of values.MultiStepContext that will be passed when loss_fn is run. context can be used to specify the outputs to be returned from loss_fn, among other things.
  • optimizer: an optimizer that implements an update rule.
  • distribution: a DistributionStrategy object.
