Glorot uniform initializer, also called Xavier uniform initializer.

It draws samples from a uniform distribution within -limit, limit where limit is sqrt(6 / (fan_in + fan_out)) where fan_in is the number of input units in the weight tensor and fan_out is the number of output units in the weight tensor.

Arguments
