Finding the Last Occurrence of Maximum Values in a Tensor with TensorFlow
When working with tensors in TensorFlow, you may encounter scenarios where you need to identify the last occurrence of the maximum values within your data. This requirement might arise in various contexts such as data analytics, machine learning, and more. In this guide, we will solve a specific problem that illustrates how to find these last occurrences using TensorFlow version 1.9.
Problem Statement
Suppose you have a constant tensor like the following:
[[See Video to Reveal this Text or Code Snippet]]
From the first row [0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 0], the last occurrence of the maximum value (which is 2) is at index 4. Similarly, in the second row [0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 2], the last occurrence of the maximum value is at index 5. Hence, your goal is to obtain the array [4, 5] that represents these indices.
Now, let’s explore how we can achieve this goal using TensorFlow.
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1: Import TensorFlow
First, make sure to import the TensorFlow library to your Python script.

Step 3: Find the Last Occurrence of Maximum Values
To find the last occurrence of the maximum values in each row, we can follow these steps:
Reverse the tensor along the rows.
Use tf.argmax to find the first occurrence of the maximum value in the reversed tensor.
Adjust the indices to get the last occurrence.
Here's how you can implement this in your code:

Conclusion
Finding the last occurrence of the maximum value in a tensor is a straightforward process when leveraging TensorFlow’s built-in functions. By reversing the tensor and utilizing tf.argmax, you can effortlessly pinpoint these indices. This technique is not only useful within the context of the example we discussed, but it can be widely applied in various machine learning and data processing projects.
