TensorFlow is open-source python library designed by Google to develop Machine Learning models and deep learning neural networks. pow() is used to find element wise x^y.
Syntax: tf.math.pow(x, y, name)
Parameter:
- x: It’s the input tensor. Allowed dtype for this tensor are float16, float32, float64, int32, int64, complex64, or complex128.
- y: It’s the input tensor of same dtype as x.
- name(optional): It defines the name for the operation.
Returns: It returns a tensor of same dtype as x.
Example 1:
Python3
# Importing the library import tensorflow as tf # Initializing the input tensor a = tf.constant([. 2 , . 5 , . 7 , 1 ], dtype = tf.float64) b = tf.constant([. 1 , . 3 , 1 , 5 ], dtype = tf.float64) # Printing the input tensor print ( 'a: ' , a) print ( 'b: ' , b) # Calculating result res = tf.math. pow (x = a, y = b) # Printing the result print ( 'Result: ' , res) |
Output:
a: tf.Tensor([0.2 0.5 0.7 1. ], shape=(4, ), dtype=float64) b: tf.Tensor([0.1 0.3 1. 5. ], shape=(4, ), dtype=float64) Result: tf.Tensor([0.85133992 0.8122524 0.7 1. ], shape=(4, ), dtype=float64)
Example 2: This example uses negative values in y that will raise error.
Python3
# importing the library import tensorflow as tf # Initializing the input tensor a = tf.constant([ 2 , 5 , 7 , 1 ], dtype = tf.int64) b = tf.constant([ - 1 , - 6 , 8 , 0 ], dtype = tf.int64) # Printing the input tensor print ( 'a: ' , a) print ( 'b: ' , b) # Calculating result res = tf.math. pow (x = a, y = b) # Printing the result print ( 'Result: ' , res) |
Output:
a: tf.Tensor([2 5 7 1], shape=(4, ), dtype=int64) b: tf.Tensor([-1 -6 8 0], shape=(4, ), dtype=int64) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- InvalidArgumentError Traceback (most recent call last) in () 11 12 # Calculating result ---> 13 res = tf.math.pow(x = a, y = b) 14 15 # Printing the result 4 frames /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/six.py in raise_from(value, from_value) InvalidArgumentError: Integers to negative integer powers are not allowed [Op:Pow]
