mindspore.ops.TopK	The input_x can’t be split into the last dimension, otherwise it’s inconsistent with the single machine in the mathematical logic.
mindspore.ops.Transpose	None
mindspore.ops.Unique	Only support the repeat calculate shard strategy (1,).
mindspore.ops.UnsortedSegmentSum	The shard of input_x and segment_ids must be the same as the dimension of segment_ids.
mindspore.ops.UnsortedSegmentMin	The shard of input_x and segment_ids must be the same as the dimension of segment_ids. Note that if the segment id i is missing, then the output[i] will be filled with the maximum of the input type. The user needs to mask the maximum value to avoid value overflow. The communication operation such as AllReudce will raise an Run Task Error due to overflow.
mindspore.ops.UnsortedSegmentMax	The shard of input_x and segment_ids must be the same as the dimension of segment_ids. Note that if the segment id i is missing, then the output[i] will be filled with the minimum of the input type. The user needs to mask the minimum value to avoid value overflow. The communication operation such as AllReudce will raise an Run Task Error due to overflow.
mindspore.ops.ZerosLike	None

Repeated calculation means that the device is not fully used. For example, the cluster has 8 devices to run distributed training, the splitting strategy only cuts the input into 4 copies. In this case, double counting will occur.
