Python | Tensorflow acos () method

Michael Zippo 18.07.2021

The tensorflow.math module provides support for many basic mathematical operations. The tf.acos () [alias tf.math.acos ] function provides support for the inverse cosine function in Tensorflow. The input is assumed to be in the range [-1, 1] and outputs the output in radians. Returns nan, if the input is not in the range [-1, 1]. Input type — tensor, and if the input contains more than one element, the inverse cosine is calculated for each element.

Syntax : tf.acos (x, name = None) or tf.math .acos (x, name = None)

Parameters :
x : A tensor of any of the following types: bfloat16, half , float32, float64, int32, int64, complex64, or complex128.
name (optional): The name for the operation.

Return type : A tensor with the same type as that of x.

Code # 1:

# Tensorflow library import

import tensorflow as tf

# Constant vector of size 6

a = tf.constant ([ 1.0 , - 0.5 , 3.4 , 0.2 , 0.0 , - 2 ],

   dtype   =   tf.float32) 
   
  # Using the acos function and  
  # save the result to & # 39; b & # 39;  
   b   =   tf.acos (a, name   =   ’acos’  )

< code class = "undefined spaces">
# Initiating a Tensorflow session
with tf.Session () as sess:

print ( ’Input type:’ , a)

print ( ’Input:’ , sess.run (a))

print ( ’Return type:’ , b)

print ( ’ Output: ’ , sess.run (b))

Output :

 Input type: Tensor ("Const_7: 0", shape = (6,), dtype = float32) Input: [1. -0.5 3.4 0.2 0. -2. ] Return type: Tensor ("acos: 0", shape = (6,), dtype = float32) Output: [0. 2.0943952 nan 1.3694384 1.5707964 nan]
