Tensorflow bitwise.bitwise_xor() method performs the bitwise_xor operation and the result will set those bits, that are different in a and b. The operation is done on the representation of a and b. This method belongs to bitwise module.

Syntax: tf.bitwise.bitwise_xor(a, b, name=None)

Arguments

  • a: This must be a Tensor.It should be from the one of the following types: int8, int16, int32, int64, uint8, uint16, uint32, uint64.
  • b: This should also be a Tensor, Type same as a.
  • name: This is optional parameter and this is the name of the operation.

Return: It returns a Tensor having the same type as a and b.

Let’s see this concept with the help of few examples:
Example 1:




# Importing the Tensorflow library 
import tensorflow as tf 
  
# A constant a and b 
a = tf.constant(43, dtype = tf.int32) 
b = tf.constant(5, dtype = tf.int32) 
  
# Applying the bitwise_xor function 
# storing the result in 'c' 
c = tf.bitwise.bitwise_xor(a, b) 
  
# Initiating a Tensorflow session 
with tf.Session() as sess:
    print("Input 1", a)
    print(sess.run(a))
  
    print("Input 2", b)
    print(sess.run(b))
  
    print("Output: ", c)
    print(sess.run(c))


Output:

Input 1 Tensor("Const_36:0", shape=(), dtype=int32)
43
Input 2 Tensor("Const_37:0", shape=(), dtype=int32)
5
Output:  Tensor("BitwiseXor_4:0", shape=(), dtype=int32)
46

Example 2:




# Importing the Tensorflow library 
import tensorflow as tf 
  
# A constant vector of size 2 
a = tf.constant([10, 6], dtype = tf.int32) 
b = tf.constant([12, 5], dtype = tf.int32) 
  
# Applying the bitwise_xor function 
# storing the result in 'c' 
c = tf.bitwise.bitwise_xor(a, b) 
  
# Initiating a Tensorflow session 
with tf.Session() as sess:
    print("Input 1", a)
    print(sess.run(a))
    print("Input 2", b)
    print(sess.run(b))
    print("Output: ", c)
    print(sess.run(c))


Output:

Input 1 Tensor("Const_34:0", shape=(2, ), dtype=int32)
[10  6]
Input 2 Tensor("Const_35:0", shape=(2, ), dtype=int32)
[12  5]
Output:  Tensor("BitwiseXor_3:0", shape=(2, ), dtype=int32)
[6 3]
