  """Computes the CTC (Connectionist Temporal Classification) Loss.

  This op implements the CTC loss as presented in (Graves et al., 2006).

  Input requirements:

  ```
  sequence_length(b) <= time for all b

  max(labels.indices(labels.indices[:, 1] == b, 2))
    <= sequence_length(b) for all b.
  ```

  Notes:

  This class performs the softmax operation for you, so inputs should
  be e.g. linear projections of outputs by an LSTM.

  The `inputs` Tensor's innermost dimension size, `num_classes`, represents
  `num_labels + 1` classes, where num_labels is the number of true labels, and
  the largest value `(num_classes - 1)` is reserved for the blank label.

  For example, for a vocabulary containing 3 labels `[a, b, c]`,
  `num_classes = 4` and the labels indexing is `{a: 0, b: 1, c: 2, blank: 3}`.

  Regarding the arguments `preprocess_collapse_repeated` and
  `ctc_merge_repeated`:

  If `preprocess_collapse_repeated` is True, then a preprocessing step runs
  before loss calculation, wherein repeated labels passed to the loss
  are merged into single labels.  This is useful if the training labels come
  from, e.g., forced alignments and therefore have unnecessary repetitions.

  If `ctc_merge_repeated` is set False, then deep within the CTC calculation,
  repeated non-blank labels will not be merged and are interpreted
  as individual labels.  This is a simplified (non-standard) version of CTC.

  Here is a table of the (roughly) expected first order behavior:

  * `preprocess_collapse_repeated=False`, `ctc_merge_repeated=True`

    Classical CTC behavior: Outputs true repeated classes with blanks in
    between, and can also output repeated classes with no blanks in
    between that need to be collapsed by the decoder.

  * `preprocess_collapse_repeated=True`, `ctc_merge_repeated=False`

    Never learns to output repeated classes, as they are collapsed
    in the input labels before training.

  * `preprocess_collapse_repeated=False`, `ctc_merge_repeated=False`

    Outputs repeated classes with blanks in between, but generally does not
    require the decoder to collapse/merge repeated classes.

  * `preprocess_collapse_repeated=True`, `ctc_merge_repeated=True`

    Untested.  Very likely will not learn to output repeated classes.

  The `ignore_longer_outputs_than_inputs` option allows to specify the behavior
  of the CTCLoss when dealing with sequences that have longer outputs than
  inputs. If true, the CTCLoss will simply return zero gradient for those
  items, otherwise an InvalidArgument error is returned, stopping training.

  Args:
    labels: An `int32` `SparseTensor`.
      `labels.indices[i, :] == [b, t]` means `labels.values[i]` stores the id
        for (batch b, time t). `labels.values[i]` must take on values in `[0,
        num_labels)`. See `core/ops/ctc_ops.cc` for more details.
    inputs: 3-D `float` `Tensor`.
      If time_major == False, this will be a `Tensor` shaped: `[batch_size,
        max_time, num_classes]`.
      If time_major == True (default), this will be a `Tensor` shaped:
        `[max_time, batch_size, num_classes]`. The logits.
    sequence_length: 1-D `int32` vector, size `[batch_size]`. The sequence
      lengths.
    preprocess_collapse_repeated: Boolean.  Default: False. If True, repeated
      labels are collapsed prior to the CTC calculation.
    ctc_merge_repeated: Boolean.  Default: True.
    ignore_longer_outputs_than_inputs: Boolean. Default: False. If True,
      sequences with longer outputs than inputs will be ignored.
    time_major: The shape format of the `inputs` Tensors. If True, these
      `Tensors` must be shaped `[max_time, batch_size, num_classes]`. If False,
      these `Tensors` must be shaped `[batch_size, max_time, num_classes]`.
      Using `time_major = True` (default) is a bit more efficient because it
      avoids transposes at the beginning of the ctc_loss calculation.  However,
      most TensorFlow data is batch-major, so by this function also accepts
      inputs in batch-major form.
    logits: Alias for inputs.

  Returns:
    A 1-D `float` `Tensor`, size `[batch]`, containing the negative log
      probabilities.

  Raises:
    TypeError: if labels is not a `SparseTensor`.

  - Default `blank_index` is `(num_classes - 1)`, unless overriden.

  This means that if consecutive logits' maximum indices are the same,
  only the first of these is emitted.  The sequence `A B B * B * B` (where '*'

    merge_repeated: Boolean.  Default: True.
    blank_index: (Optional). Default: `num_classes - 1`. Define the class index
      to use for the blank label. Negative values will start from num_classes,
      ie, -1 will reproduce the ctc_greedy_decoder behavior of using
      num_classes - 1 for the blank symbol, which corresponds to the default.

  This op implements the CTC loss as presented in (Graves et al., 2006),

  Notes:
    Significant differences from tf.compat.v1.nn.ctc_loss:
      Supports GPU and TPU (tf.compat.v1.nn.ctc_loss supports CPU only):
        For batched operations, GPU and TPU are significantly faster than using
        ctc_loss on CPU.
        This implementation runs on CPU, but significantly slower than ctc_loss.
      Blank label is 0 rather num_classes - 1, unless overridden by blank_index.
      Logits and labels are dense arrays with padding rather than SparseTensor.
      The only mode supported is the same as:
        preprocess_collapse_repeated=False, ctc_merge_repeated=True
        To collapse labels, the caller can preprocess label sequence first.

    The dense implementation supports both CPU, GPU and TPU. A fast path is
    provided that significantly improves memory use for large vocabulary if the
    caller preprocesses label sequences to get unique label indices on the CPU
    (eg. in the data input pipeline) using ctc_ops.unique and simplifies this in
    the optional "unique" kwarg. This is especially useful for TPU and GPU but
    also works with if used on CPU.

  Args:
    labels: tensor of shape [batch_size, max_label_seq_length]

      logits_time_major == False, shape is [batch_size, frames, num_labels].
    label_length: tensor of shape [batch_size] Length of reference label
