torch.sign — PyTorch 2.5 documentation (original) (raw)

Shortcuts

torch.sign(input, *, out=None) → Tensor

Returns a new tensor with the signs of the elements of input.

outi=sgn⁡(inputi)\text{out}_{i} = \operatorname{sgn}(\text{input}_{i})

Parameters

input (Tensor) – the input tensor.

Keyword Arguments

out (Tensor, optional) – the output tensor.

Example:

a = torch.tensor([0.7, -1.2, 0., 2.3]) a tensor([ 0.7000, -1.2000, 0.0000, 2.3000]) torch.sign(a) tensor([ 1., -1., 0., 1.])
