Hi, I see the desire for stylistic improvement by removing the awkward parens but your correction has incorrect grammar. One cannot have arrays of Python, nor are Numpy objects a subset of Python (because Python is not a set) -- both of which are what your sentence technically states. I.e., the

David, I'm confused about your reply. I don't think Ruben was only asking why you'd ever get non-zero error after the forward and inverse transform, but why his implementation using lists gives zero error but using arrays he gets something of order 1e-15. On Mon, Apr 20, 2009 at 9:47 AM, David

[Numpy-discussion] Automatic differentiation (was Re: second-order gradient)

2008-10-30 Thread Rob Clewley
Maybe we should focus on writing a decent 'deriv' function then. I know Konrad Hinsen's Scientific had a derivatives package (Scientific.Functions.Derivatives) that implemented automatic differentiation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_differentiation That would be great, but

2008/10/29 Fernando Perez [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I think it's fine to ask for functions that compute higher order derivatives of n-d arrays: we already have diff(), which operates on a single direction, and a hessian could make sense (with the caveats David points out). But with higher order

In your experience, is this functionality enough to start a separate package, or should we try to include it somewhere else? Otherwise we could think of a new SciKit. I confess to knowing no details about scikits so I don't know what the difference really is between a new package and a

Hi Andrea, I was wondering if someone had any suggestions/references/snippets of code on how to find the minimum distance between 2 paths in 3D. Basically, for every path, I have I series of points (x, y, z) and I would like to know if there is a better way, other than comparing point by

IMO the Modular toolkit for Data Processing (MDP) has a fairly good and straightforward PCA implementation, among other good tools: mdp-toolkit.sourceforge.net/ I have no idea what apt-get is, though, so I don't know if this will be helpful or not! -Rob On 21/06/07, Alex Torquato S. Carneiro
