flax.linen.GRUCell

class flax.linen.GRUCell(gate_fn=<CompiledFunction of <function sigmoid>>, activation_fn=<CompiledFunction of <function _one_to_one_unop.<locals>.<lambda>>>, kernel_init=<function variance_scaling.<locals>.init>, recurrent_kernel_init=<function orthogonal.<locals>.init>, bias_init=<function zeros>, dtype=None, param_dtype=<class 'jax.numpy.float32'>, parent=<flax.linen.module._Sentinel object>, name=None)

GRU cell.

The mathematical definition of the cell is as follows

\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{ll} r = \sigma(W_{ir} x + W_{hr} h + b_{hr}) \\ z = \sigma(W_{iz} x + W_{hz} h + b_{hz}) \\ n = \tanh(W_{in} x + b_{in} + r * (W_{hn} h + b_{hn})) \\ h' = (1 - z) * n + z * h \\ \end{array}\end{split}\]

where x is the input and h, is the output of the previous time step.

__call__(carry, inputs)

Gated recurrent unit (GRU) cell.

Parameters

• carry – the hidden state of the LSTM cell, initialized using GRUCell.initialize_carry.

• inputs – an ndarray with the input for the current time step. All dimensions except the final are considered batch dimensions.

Returns

A tuple with the new carry and the output.

Methods

initialize_carry(rng, batch_dims, size[, ...])

Initialize the RNN cell carry.
