| ## Args ||
|---|---|
| `serialized` | A `Tensor` of type `string`. A scalar string containing a serialized TensorProto proto. |
| `out_type` | A [`tf.DType`](https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/dtypes/DType). The type of the serialized tensor. The provided type must match the type of the serialized tensor and no implicit conversion will take place. |
| `name` | A name for the operation (optional). |

<br />

<br />

| ## Returns ||
|---|---|
| A `Tensor` of type `out_type`. ||
