DML_ACTIVATION_SOFTPLUS_OPERATOR_DESC structure (directml.h)

Performs a parametric softplus activation function on every element in InputTensor, placing the result into the corresponding element of OutputTensor.

f(x) = ln(1 + exp(Steepness * x)) / Steepness

Where exp(x) is the natural exponentiation function and ln(x) is the natural logarithm.

This operator supports in-place execution, meaning that the output tensor is permitted to alias InputTensor during binding.

Syntax

struct DML_ACTIVATION_SOFTPLUS_OPERATOR_DESC {
  const DML_TENSOR_DESC *InputTensor;
  const DML_TENSOR_DESC *OutputTensor;
  FLOAT                 Steepness;
};

Members

InputTensor

Type: const DML_TENSOR_DESC*

The input tensor to read from.

OutputTensor

Type: const DML_TENSOR_DESC*

The Steepness coefficient. A typical default for this value is 1.0. This value cannot be less than 1.

Steepness

Type: FLOAT

The steepness value.

Availability

This operator was introduced in DML_FEATURE_LEVEL_1_0.

Tensor constraints

InputTensor and OutputTensor must have the same DataType, DimensionCount, and Sizes.
