chainer.initializers.GlorotUniform

class chainer.initializers.GlorotUniform(scale=1.0, dtype=None)[source]

Initializes array with a scaled uniform distribution.

Each element of the array is initialized by the value drawn independently from uniform distribution \([-s, s]\) where \(s = scale \times \sqrt{\frac{6}{fan_{in} + fan_{out}}}\). Here, \(fan_{in}\) and fan_{out} are the number of input and output units, respectively.

Variables:
  • scale (float) – A constant that determines the scale of the uniform distribution.
  • dtype – Data type specifier.
