Numpy数组元素之间的差异

这将是一个相当简单的问题,我想知道Python中是否有一个快速而干净的解决方法。

假设我有一个nd-array定义如下:

In [10]: C = np.random.rand(2,3,3)

In [11]: C
Out[11]: 
array([[[ 0.43588471,  0.06600133,  0.81145749],
        [ 0.20270693,  0.85879686,  0.75778422],
        [ 0.68253449,  0.98287412,  0.63804605]],

       [[ 0.61591433,  0.36453861,  0.23798795],
        [ 0.26761896,  0.00657165,  0.04083067],
        [ 0.11177481,  0.55245769,  0.97274592]]])

然后我计算第三维数组中值和先前值之间的差异,如下所示:

In [12]: C[:, :, 1:] = C[:, :, 1:] - C[:, :, 0:C.shape[2]-1]

In [13]: C
Out[13]: 
array([[[ 0.43588471, -0.36988337,  0.74545616],
        [ 0.20270693,  0.65608994, -0.10101264],
        [ 0.68253449,  0.30033963, -0.34482807]],

       [[ 0.61591433, -0.25137572, -0.12655065],
        [ 0.26761896, -0.26104731,  0.03425902],
        [ 0.11177481,  0.44068288,  0.42028823]]])

是否可以使用类似技术恢复到原始值,或者必须使用for循环和临时变量?

例如,这不起作用:

In [15]: C[:, :, 1:] = C[:, :, 0:C.shape[2]-1] + C[:, :, 1:]

In [16]: C
Out[16]: 
array([[[ 0.43588471,  0.06600133,  0.37557278],
        [ 0.20270693,  0.85879686,  0.5550773 ],
        [ 0.68253449,  0.98287412, -0.04448843]],

       [[ 0.61591433,  0.36453861, -0.37792638],
        [ 0.26761896,  0.00657165, -0.22678829],
        [ 0.11177481,  0.55245769,  0.86097111]]])

1 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:6)

首先,计算差异,而不是

C[:, :, 1:] - C[:, :, 0:C.shape[2]-1]

您可以使用numpy.diff

np.diff(C, axis = -1)

In [27]: C = np.random.rand(2,3,3)

In [28]: D = C[:, :, 1:] - C[:, :, 0:C.shape[2]-1]

In [29]: E = np.diff(C, axis = -1)

In [30]: np.allclose(D, E)
Out[30]: True

接下来,如果您知道要检索原始C,最好不要首先覆盖这些值。只需将差异保存在单独的数组中:

E = np.diff(C, axis = -1)

毕竟,没有更快的方法来执行计算而不是根本不计算:)。

但如果您确实想覆盖这些值,那么要检索原始值,请使用np.cumsum

In [20]: C = np.random.rand(2,3,3)

In [21]: D = C.copy()

In [22]: C[:, :, 1:] = np.diff(C, axis = -1)

In [23]: C = np.cumsum(C, axis = -1)

In [24]: np.allclose(C,D)
Out[24]: True
