tf.raw_ops.TPUReplicateMetadata
Metadata indicating how the TPU computation should be replicated.
tf.raw_ops.TPUReplicateMetadata(
    num_replicas, num_cores_per_replica=1, topology='', use_tpu=True,
    device_assignment=[], computation_shape=[], host_compute_core=[],
    padding_map=[], step_marker_location='STEP_MARK_AT_ENTRY',
    allow_soft_placement=False, name=None
)
  This operation holds the metadata common to operations of a tpu.replicate() computation subgraph.
| Args | |
|---|---|
num_replicas | 
      An int that is >= 0. Number of replicas of the computation | 
     
num_cores_per_replica | 
      An optional int. Defaults to 1. Number of cores per replica. Used for model parallelism. | 
     
topology | 
      An optional string. Defaults to "". TopologyProto indicating the topology of the TPU pod slice. | 
     
use_tpu | 
      An optional bool. Defaults to True. Whether to place the computation on the TPU. | 
     
device_assignment | 
      An optional list of ints. Defaults to []. The assignment of devices for the computation. | 
     
computation_shape | 
      An optional list of ints. Defaults to []. DEPRECATED. Use num_cores_per_replica instead. | 
     
host_compute_core | 
      An optional list of strings. Defaults to []. | 
     
padding_map | 
      An optional list of strings. Defaults to []. | 
     
step_marker_location | 
      An optional string. Defaults to "STEP_MARK_AT_ENTRY". | 
     
allow_soft_placement | 
      An optional bool. Defaults to False. | 
     
name | 
      A name for the operation (optional). | 
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| The created Operation. |
