-            A ragged tensor with 2 axes [utt][label]. It contains labels of each

-            The prune range for rnnt loss, it means how many symbols(context)

-          reduction:
-            "sum" to sum the losses over all utterances in the batch.
-            "none" to return the loss in a 1-D tensor for each utterance
-            in the batch.
-          delay_penalty:
-            A constant value used to penalize symbol delay, to encourage
-            streaming models to emit symbols earlier.
