Computes the sum along sparse segments of a tensor divided by the sqrt(N).

    tf.sparse.segment_sqrt_n(
        data, indices, segment_ids, num_segments=None, name=None
    )

Read [the section on
segmentation](https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.0/api_docs/python/tf/math#about_segmentation)
for an explanation of segments.

Like [`tf.sparse.segment_mean`](https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.14/api_docs/python/tf/sparse/segment_mean), but instead of dividing by the size of the
segment, `N`, divide by `sqrt(N)` instead.

| ## Args ||
|---|---|
| `data` | A `Tensor` with data that will be assembled in the output. |
| `indices` | A 1-D `Tensor` with indices into `data`. Has same rank as `segment_ids`. |
| `segment_ids` | A 1-D `Tensor` with indices into the output `Tensor`. Values should be sorted and can be repeated. |
| `num_segments` | An optional int32 scalar. Indicates the size of the output `Tensor`. |
| `name` | A name for the operation (optional). |

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

| ## Returns ||
|---|---|
| A `tensor` of the shape as data, except for dimension 0 which has size `k`, the number of segments specified via `num_segments` or inferred for the last element in `segments_ids`. ||
