tf.distribute.experimental.partitioners.Partitioner

Partitioner base class: all partitiners inherit from this class.

Partitioners should implement a __call__ method with the following signature:

def __call__(self, shape, dtype, axis=0):
  # Partitions the given `shape` and returns the partition results.
  # See docstring of `__call__` method for the format of partition results.

Methods

__call__

__call__(
    shape, dtype, axis=0
)

Partitions the given shape and returns the partition results.

Examples of a partitioner that allocates a fixed number of shards:

partitioner = FixedShardsPartitioner(num_shards=2)
partitions = partitioner(tf.TensorShape([10, 3], tf.float32), axis=0)
print(partitions) # [2, 0]
