mindspore.nn.probability.distribution.Beta
- class mindspore.nn.probability.distribution.Beta(concentration1=None, concentration0=None, seed=None, dtype=mindspore.float32, name='Beta')[source]
Beta distribution.
- Parameters
concentration1 (list, numpy.ndarray, Tensor) – The concentration1, also know as alpha of the Beta distribution.
concentration0 (list, numpy.ndarray, Tensor) – The concentration0, also know as beta of the Beta distribution.
seed (int) – The seed used in sampling. The global seed is used if it is None. Default: None.
dtype (mindspore.dtype) – The type of the event samples. Default: mstype.float32.
name (str) – The name of the distribution. Default: ‘Beta’.
- Supported Platforms:
Ascend
Note
concentration1 and concentration0 must be greater than zero. dist_spec_args are concentration1 and concentration0. dtype must be a float type because Beta distributions are continuous.
