Generator.choice

which should be used in new code

Notes

Sampling random rows from a 2-D array is not possible with this function, but is possible with Generator.choice through its axis keyword.

Examples

Generate a uniform random sample from np.arange(5) of size 3:

>>> np.random.choice(5, 3)
array([0, 3, 4]) # random
>>> #This is equivalent to np.random.randint(0,5,3)

Generate a non-uniform random sample from np.arange(5) of size 3:

>>> np.random.choice(5, 3, p=[0.1, 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0])
array([3, 3, 0]) # random

Generate a uniform random sample from np.arange(5) of size 3 without replacement:

>>> np.random.choice(5, 3, replace=False)
array([3,1,0]) # random
>>> #This is equivalent to np.random.permutation(np.arange(5))[:3]

Generate a non-uniform random sample from np.arange(5) of size 3 without replacement:

>>> np.random.choice(5, 3, replace=False, p=[0.1, 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0])
array([2, 3, 0]) # random

Any of the above can be repeated with an arbitrary array-like instead of just integers. For instance:

>>> aa_milne_arr = ['pooh', 'rabbit', 'piglet', 'Christopher']
>>> np.random.choice(aa_milne_arr, 5, p=[0.5, 0.1, 0.1, 0.3])
array(['pooh', 'pooh', 'pooh', 'Christopher', 'piglet'], # random
      dtype='<U11')

gemseo.mlearning.qual_measure.cluster_measure.choice(a, size=None, replace=True, p=None)

Generates a random sample from a given 1-D array

New in version 1.7.0.

Note

New code should use the choice method of a default_rng() instance instead; please see the random-quick-start.

Parameters
  • a (1-D array-like or int) – If an ndarray, a random sample is generated from its elements. If an int, the random sample is generated as if a were np.arange(a)

  • size (int or tuple of ints, optional) – Output shape. If the given shape is, e.g., (m, n, k), then m * n * k samples are drawn. Default is None, in which case a single value is returned.

  • replace (boolean, optional) – Whether the sample is with or without replacement

  • p (1-D array-like, optional) – The probabilities associated with each entry in a. If not given the sample assumes a uniform distribution over all entries in a.

Returns

samples – The generated random samples

Return type

single item or ndarray

Raises

ValueError – If a is an int and less than zero, if a or p are not 1-dimensional, if a is an array-like of size 0, if p is not a vector of probabilities, if a and p have different lengths, or if replace=False and the sample size is greater than the population size

randint, shuffle, permutation

Generator.choice

which should be used in new code

Notes

Sampling random rows from a 2-D array is not possible with this function, but is possible with Generator.choice through its axis keyword.

Examples

Generate a uniform random sample from np.arange(5) of size 3:

>>> np.random.choice(5, 3)
array([0, 3, 4]) # random
>>> #This is equivalent to np.random.randint(0,5,3)

Generate a non-uniform random sample from np.arange(5) of size 3:

>>> np.random.choice(5, 3, p=[0.1, 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0])
array([3, 3, 0]) # random

Generate a uniform random sample from np.arange(5) of size 3 without replacement:

>>> np.random.choice(5, 3, replace=False)
array([3,1,0]) # random
>>> #This is equivalent to np.random.permutation(np.arange(5))[:3]

Generate a non-uniform random sample from np.arange(5) of size 3 without replacement:

>>> np.random.choice(5, 3, replace=False, p=[0.1, 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0])
array([2, 3, 0]) # random

Any of the above can be repeated with an arbitrary array-like instead of just integers. For instance:

>>> aa_milne_arr = ['pooh', 'rabbit', 'piglet', 'Christopher']
>>> np.random.choice(aa_milne_arr, 5, p=[0.5, 0.1, 0.1, 0.3])
array(['pooh', 'pooh', 'pooh', 'Christopher', 'piglet'], # random

bool

The silhouette coefficient to measure the quality of a clustering algorithm.

The silhouette module implements the concept of silhouette coefficient measure for machine learning algorithms.

This concept is implemented through the SilhouetteMeasure class and overloads the MLClusteringMeasure._compute_measure() method.

The silhouette coefficient is defined for each point as the difference between the average distance from the point to each of the other points in its cluster and the average distance from the point to each of the points in the nearest cluster different from its own.

More formally, the silhouette coefficient \(s_i\) of a point \(x_i\) is given by

\[\begin{split}a_i = \\frac{1}{|C_{k_i}| - 1} \\sum_{j\\in C_{k_i}\setminus\{i\} } \\|x_i-x_j\\|\\\\ b_i = \\underset{\\ell=1,\\cdots,K\\atop{\\ell\\neq k_i}}{\\min}\\ \\frac{1}{|C_\\ell|} \\sum_{j\\in C_\\ell} \\|x_i-x_j\\|\\\\ s_i = \\frac{b_i-a_i}{\\max(b_i,a_i)}\end{split}\]

where \(k_i\) is the index of the cluster to which \(x_i\) belongs, \(K\) is the number of clusters, \(C_k\) is the set of indices of points belonging to the cluster \(k\) (\(k=1,\\cdots,K\)), and \(|C_k| = \\sum_{j\\in C_k} 1\) is the number of points in the cluster \(k\), \(k=1,\\cdots,K\).

  • samples (Optional[Sequence[int]]) –

    The indices of the learning samples. If None, use the whole learning dataset.

    By default it is set to None.

  • multioutput (bool) –

    If True, return the quality measure for each output component. Otherwise, average these measures.

    By default it is set to True.

  • test_data (gemseo.core.dataset.Dataset) –

Returns

The value of the quality measure.

Return type

Union[float, numpy.ndarray]

classmethod is_better(val1, val2)

Compare the quality between two values.

This methods returns True if the first one is better than the second one.

For most measures, a smaller value is “better” than a larger one (MSE etc.). But for some, like an R2-measure, higher values are better than smaller ones. This comparison method correctly handles this, regardless of the type of measure.

Parameters
  • val1 (float) – The value of the first quality measure.

  • val2 (float) – The value of the second quality measure.

Returns

Whether val1 is of better quality than val2.

Return type

bool
