tf.nn.ctc_beam_search

Computes CTC (Connectionist Temporal Classification) loss.

tf.nn.ctc_loss(
    labels, logits, label_length, logit_length, logits_time_major=True, unique=None,
    blank_index=None, name=None
)

This op implements the CTC loss as presented in (Graves et al., 2006).

Notes:

Same as the "Classic CTC" in TensorFlow 1.x's tf.compat.v1.nn.ctc_loss setting of preprocess_collapse_repeated=False, ctc_merge_repeated=True
Labels may be supplied as either a dense, zero-padded tensor with a vector of label sequence lengths OR as a SparseTensor.
On TPU and GPU: Only dense padded labels are supported.
On CPU: Caller may use SparseTensor or dense padded labels but calling with a SparseTensor will be significantly faster.
Default blank label is 0 rather num_classes - 1, unless overridden by blank_index.

Args
`labels`	tensor of shape [batch_size, max_label_seq_length] or SparseTensor
`logits`	tensor of shape [frames, batch_size, num_labels], if logits_time_major == False, shape is [batch_size, frames, num_labels].
`label_length`	tensor of shape [batch_size], None if labels is SparseTensor Length of reference label sequence in labels.
`logit_length`	tensor of shape [batch_size] Length of input sequence in logits.
`logits_time_major`	(optional) If True (default), logits is shaped [time, batch, logits]. If False, shape is [batch, time, logits]
`unique`	(optional) Unique label indices as computed by ctc_unique_labels(labels). If supplied, enable a faster, memory efficient implementation on TPU.
`blank_index`	(optional) Set the class index to use for the blank label. Negative values will start from num_classes, ie, -1 will reproduce the ctc_loss behavior of using num_classes - 1 for the blank symbol. There is some memory/performance overhead to switching from the default of 0 as an additional shifted copy of the logits may be created.
`name`	A name for this `Op`. Defaults to "ctc_loss_dense".

Returns
`loss`	tensor of shape [batch_size], negative log probabilities.
