| ## Args || |---|---| | `x` | A [`tf.Tensor`](https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/Tensor). Must be one of the following types: `bfloat16`, `half`, `float32`, `float64`. `int32` | | `name` | A name for the operation (optional). |



| ## Returns || |---|---| | A [`tf.Tensor`](https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/Tensor). Has the same type as `x`. ||
