mindspore.ops.clip_by_global_norm

mindspore.ops.clip_by_global_norm(x, clip_norm=1.0, use_norm=None)

Clips tensor values by the ratio of the sum of their norms.

Note

• Input x should be a tuple or list of tensors. Otherwise, it will raise an error.

• On the SEMI_AUTO_PARALLEL mode or AUTO_PARALLEL mode, if the input x is the gradient, the gradient norm values on all devices will be automatically aggregated by allreduce inserted after the local square sum of the gradients.

Parameters

• x (Union(tuple[Tensor], list[Tensor])) – Input data to clip.

• clip_norm (Union(float, int)) – The clipping ratio, it should be greater than 0. Default: 1.0 .

• use_norm (None) – The global norm. Default: None . Currently only none is supported.

Returns

tuple[Tensor], a clipped Tensor. It has the same data type as x and each Tensor in the output tuple is the same as the original input shape.

Supported Platforms:

Ascend GPU CPU

Examples

>>> from mindspore import Tensor, ops
>>> import numpy as np
>>> x1 = np.array([[2., 3.], [1., 2.]]).astype(np.float32)
>>> x2 = np.array([[1., 4.], [3., 1.]]).astype(np.float32)
>>> input_x = (Tensor(x1), Tensor(x2))
>>> out = ops.clip_by_global_norm(input_x, 1.0)
>>> print(out)
