What is the correct way of pad and reshape a tensor in tensorflow?

Given the following tensor:

<tf.Tensor: shape=(59,), dtype=int64, numpy=
array([1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,
       1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1,
       1, 0, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1])>

What is the correct way of reshape it and pad it into (32, 59)? From keras docs I tried to:

keras.preprocessing.sequence.pad_sequences(t, 32)

Nevertheles I am getting:

ValueError: `sequences` must be a list of iterables. Found non-iterable: tf.Tensor(1, shape=(), dtype=int64)

Also, I tried:

tf.reshape(tf.data.Dataset.from_tensors(a[0]).padded_batch(32), [32,59])

However, I am getting:

ValueError: Attempt to convert a value (<PaddedBatchDataset shapes: (None, 59), types: tf.int64>) with an unsupported type (<class 'tensorflow.python.data.ops.dataset_ops.PaddedBatchDataset'>) to a Tensor.

What is the correct way of doing a 32 padding and reshape it into 32,59?

If you're useing tf.keras tf.pad should be preferred choice for tensor padding (see docs).

From what it looks like you have tensor of shape (59, ) and want to pad the tensor to shape (32, 59). This would be done as

# 15 rows before, 16 rows after, 0 cols before and after
paddings = tf.constant([[15, 16], [0, 0]])
# first reshape tensor to (1, 59), then pad it
padded = tf.pad(tensor[tf.newaxis, ...], paddings)

default padding is with zeros, see the docs for other options.
