Fonction mask_indices - module numpy.matlib

Signature de la fonction mask_indices

def mask_indices(n, mask_func, k=0) 

Description

mask_indices.__doc__

    Return the indices to access (n, n) arrays, given a masking function.

    Assume `mask_func` is a function that, for a square array a of size
    ``(n, n)`` with a possible offset argument `k`, when called as
    ``mask_func(a, k)`` returns a new array with zeros in certain locations
    (functions like `triu` or `tril` do precisely this). Then this function
    returns the indices where the non-zero values would be located.

    Parameters
    ----------
    n : int
        The returned indices will be valid to access arrays of shape (n, n).
    mask_func : callable
        A function whose call signature is similar to that of `triu`, `tril`.
        That is, ``mask_func(x, k)`` returns a boolean array, shaped like `x`.
        `k` is an optional argument to the function.
    k : scalar
        An optional argument which is passed through to `mask_func`. Functions
        like `triu`, `tril` take a second argument that is interpreted as an
        offset.

    Returns
    -------
    indices : tuple of arrays.
        The `n` arrays of indices corresponding to the locations where
        ``mask_func(np.ones((n, n)), k)`` is True.

    Notes
    -----
    .. versionadded:: 1.4.0

    Examples
    --------
    These are the indices that would allow you to access the upper triangular
    part of any 3x3 array:

    >>> iu = np.mask_indices(3, np.triu)

    For example, if `a` is a 3x3 array:

    >>> a = np.arange(9).reshape(3, 3)
    >>> a
    array([[0, 1, 2],
           [3, 4, 5],
           [6, 7, 8]])
    >>> a[iu]
    array([0, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8])

    An offset can be passed also to the masking function.  This gets us the
    indices starting on the first diagonal right of the main one:

    >>> iu1 = np.mask_indices(3, np.triu, 1)

    with which we now extract only three elements:

    >>> a[iu1]
    array([1, 2, 5])
