layer_dropout {keras3}

Applies dropout to the input.

Description

The Dropout layer randomly sets input units to 0 with a frequency of rate at each step during training time, which helps prevent overfitting. Inputs not set to 0 are scaled up by 1 / (1 - rate) such that the sum over all inputs is unchanged.

Note that the Dropout layer only applies when training is set to TRUE in call(), such that no values are dropped during inference. When using model.fit, training will be appropriately set to TRUE automatically. In other contexts, you can set the argument explicitly to TRUE when calling the layer.

(This is in contrast to setting trainable=FALSE for a Dropout layer. trainable does not affect the layer's behavior, as Dropout does not have any variables/weights that can be frozen during training.)

Usage

layer_dropout(object, rate, noise_shape = NULL, seed = NULL, ...)

Arguments

object

Object to compose the layer with. A tensor, array, or sequential model.

rate

Float between 0 and 1. Fraction of the input units to drop.

noise_shape

1D integer tensor representing the shape of the binary dropout mask that will be multiplied with the input. For instance, if your inputs have shape ⁠(batch_size, timesteps, features)⁠ and you want the dropout mask to be the same for all timesteps, you can use ⁠noise_shape=(batch_size, 1, features)⁠.

seed

An R integer to use as random seed.

...

For forward/backward compatability.

Value

The return value depends on the value provided for the first argument. If object is:

• a keras_model_sequential(), then the layer is added to the sequential model (which is modified in place). To enable piping, the sequential model is also returned, invisibly.

• a keras_input(), then the output tensor from calling layer(input) is returned.

• NULL or missing, then a Layer instance is returned.

Call Arguments

• inputs: Input tensor (of any rank).

• training: Python boolean indicating whether the layer should behave in training mode (adding dropout) or in inference mode (doing nothing).
