mindspore.nn.SparseToDense

class mindspore.nn.SparseToDense[source]

Converts a sparse tensor into dense.

In Python, for the ease of use, three tensors are collected into a SparseTensor class. MindSpore uses three independent dense tensors: indices, value and dense shape to represent the sparse tensor. Separate indexes, values and dense shape tensors can be wrapped in a Sparse Tensor object before being passed to the OPS below.

Inputs:
Outputs:

Tensor, converted from sparse tensor.

Raises

  • TypeError – If sparse_tensor.indices is not a Tensor.

  • TypeError – If ‘sparse_tensor.values’ is not a Tensor.

  • TypeError – If ‘sparse_tensor.dense_shape’ is not a tuple.

Supported Platforms:

CPU

Examples

>>> import mindspore as ms
>>> from mindspore import Tensor, SparseTensor
>>> import mindspore.nn as nn
>>> indices = Tensor([[0, 1], [1, 2]])
>>> values = Tensor([1, 2], dtype=ms.int32)
>>> dense_shape = (3, 4)
>>> sparse_tensor = SparseTensor(indices, values, dense_shape)
>>> sparse_to_dense = nn.SparseToDense()
>>> result = sparse_to_dense(sparse_tensor)
>>> print(result)
[[0 1 0 0]
 [0 0 2 0]
 [0 0 0 0]]
