Adding a constant to a batch data set in preparing time series data in Tensorflow

Consider the code below. The batch data is created with the command tf.keras.preprocessing.timeseries_dataset_from_array. I want to manipulate every array in the batch data in such a way that i want to add the constant “99” to it. The variable feature_ds contains the batch data sets.

import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np
 
simple_data_samples = np.array([
         [1, 1, 1, -1, -1],
         [2, 2, 2, -2, -2],
         [3, 3, 3, -3, -3],
         [4, 4, 4, -4, -4],
         [5, 5, 5, -5, -5],
         [6, 6, 6, -6, -6],
         [7, 7, 7, -7, -7],
         [8, 8, 8, -8, -8],
         [9, 9, 9, -9, -9],
         [10, 10, 10, -10, -10],
         [11, 11, 11, -11, -11],
         [12, 12, 12, -12, -12],
])


def print_dataset(ds):
    for inputs, targets in ds:
        print("---Batch---")
        print("Feature:", inputs.numpy())
        print("Label:", targets.numpy())
        print("")


def timeseries_dataset_multistep_combined(features, label_slice, input_sequence_length, output_sequence_length, batch_size):
    feature_ds = tf.keras.preprocessing.timeseries_dataset_from_array(features, None, input_sequence_length + output_sequence_length, batch_size=batch_size)
     
    def split_feature_label(x):
   
        return x[:, :input_sequence_length, :], x[:, input_sequence_length:, label_slice]
         
    feature_ds = feature_ds.map(split_feature_label)
    
    return feature_ds
 
ds = timeseries_dataset_multistep_combined(simple_data_samples, slice(3, None, None), input_sequence_length=4, output_sequence_length=2, batch_size=2)
print_dataset(ds)

If you want to add the same constant to all of the input data, you can simply create some preprocessing function, which adds this number to the original numpy arrays.
If you want to use add operation inside the model, you can check out the documentation for tf.math.add and tf.karas.layers.Add.
