    tf.keras.backend.min(
        x, axis=None, keepdims=False
    )

<br />

<br />

| ## Arguments ||
|---|---|
| `x` | A tensor or variable. |
| `axis` | An integer, the axis to find minimum values. |
| `keepdims` | A boolean, whether to keep the dimensions or not. If `keepdims` is `False`, the rank of the tensor is reduced by 1. If `keepdims` is `True`, the reduced dimension is retained with length 1. |

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

| ## Returns ||
|---|---|
| A tensor with minimum values of `x`. ||
