Bijector which applies a sequence of bijectors

tfb_chain(
  bijectors = NULL,
  validate_args = FALSE,
  validate_event_size = TRUE,
  parameters = NULL,
  name = NULL
)

Arguments

bijectors	list of bijector instances. An empty list makes this bijector equivalent to the Identity bijector.
validate_args	Logical indicating whether arguments should be checked for correctness.
validate_event_size	Checks that bijectors are not applied to inputs with incomplete support (that is, inputs where one or more elements are a deterministic transformation of the others). For example, the following LDJ would be incorrect: tfb_chain(list(tfb_scale(), tfb_softmax_centered()))$forward_log_det_jacobian(matrix(1:2, ncol = 2)) The jacobian contribution from tfb_scale() applies to a 2-dimensional input, but the output from tfb_softmax_centered() is a 1-dimensional input embedded in a 2-dimensional space. Setting validate_event_size=TRUE (default) prints warnings in these cases. When validate_args is also TRUE, the warning is promoted to an exception.
parameters	Locals dict captured by subclass constructor, to be used for copy/slice re-instantiation operators.
name	String, name given to ops managed by this object. Default: E.g., tfb_chain(list(tfb_exp(), tfb_softplus()))$name == "chain_of_exp_of_softplus".

Value

a bijector instance.
