## Methods

### `from_config`

[View source](https://github.com/keras-team/keras/tree/v3.15.1/keras/src/constraints/constraints.py#L59-L77)

    @classmethod
    from_config(
        config
    )

Instantiates a weight constraint from a configuration dictionary.

#### Example:

    constraint = UnitNorm()
    config = constraint.get_config()
    constraint = UnitNorm.from_config(config)

<br />

<br />

<br />

| Args ||
|---|---|
| `config` | A Python dictionary, the output of `get_config()`. |

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

| Returns ||
|---|---|
| A [`keras.constraints.Constraint`](https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/keras/constraints/Constraint) instance. ||

<br />

### `get_config`

[View source](https://github.com/keras-team/keras/tree/v3.15.1/keras/src/constraints/constraints.py#L48-L57)

    get_config()

Returns a Python dict of the object config.

A constraint config is a Python dictionary (JSON-serializable) that can
be used to reinstantiate the same object.

<br />

<br />

<br />

| Returns ||
|---|---|
| Python dict containing the configuration of the constraint object. ||

<br />

### `__call__`

[View source](https://github.com/keras-team/keras/tree/v3.15.1/keras/src/constraints/constraints.py#L125-L127)

    __call__(
        w
    )

Applies the constraint to the input weight variable.

By default, the inputs weight variable is not modified.
Users should override this method to implement their own projection
function.

<br />

<br />

<br />

| Args ||
|---|---|
| `w` | Input weight variable. |

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

| Returns ||
|---|---|
| Projected variable (by default, returns unmodified inputs). ||
