tf.compat.v2.io.decode_raw

Convert raw byte strings into tensors.

tf.compat.v2.io.decode_raw(
    input_bytes,
    out_type,
    little_endian=True,
    fixed_length=None,
    name=None
)

input_bytes: Each element of the input Tensor is converted to an array of bytes.
out_type: DType of the output. Acceptable types are half, float, double, int32, uint16, uint8, int16, int8, int64.
little_endian: Whether the input_bytes data is in little-endian format. Data will be converted into host byte order if necessary.
fixed_length: If set, the first fixed_length bytes of each element will be converted. Data will be zero-padded or truncated to the specified length.

fixed_length must be a multiple of the size of out_type. fixed_length must be specified if the elements of input_bytes are of variable length.
name: A name for the operation (optional).

A Tensor object storing the decoded bytes.
