nlcpy.median

nlcpy.median(a, axis=None, out=None, overwrite_input=False, keepdims=False)

Computes the median along the specified axis.

Returns the median of the array elements.

Parameters
aarray_like

Input array or scalar that can be converted to an array.

axisint, None, optional

Axis along which the medians are computed. The default is to compute the median along a flattened version of the array.

outndarray, optional

Alternative output array in which to place the result. It must have the same shape and buffer length as the expected output, but the type (of the output) will be cast if necessary.

overwrite_inputbool, optional

If True, then allow use of memory of input array a for calculations. The input array will be modified by the call to median. This will save memory when you do not need to preserve the contents of the input array. Treat the input as undefined, but it will probably be fully or partially sorted. Default is False. If overwrite_input is True and a is not already a ndarray, an error will be raised.

keepdimsbool, optional

If this is set to True, the axis which are reduced are left in the result as dimensions with size one. With this option, the result will broadcast correctly against the original array.

Returns
medianndarray

A new array holding the result. If the input contains integers or floats smaller than float64, then the output data-type is nlcpy.float64. Otherwise, the data-type of the output is the same as that of the input. If out is specified, that array is returned instead.

参考

mean

Computes the arithmetic mean along the specified axis.

注釈

Given a vector V of length N, the median of V is the middle value of a sorted copy of V, V_sorted - i.e., V_sorted[(N-1)/2], when N is odd, and the average of the two middle values of V_sorted when N is even.

制限事項

  • If axis is neither a scalar nor None : NotImplementedError occurs.

  • For complex numbers, NotImplementedError occurs.

Examples

>>> import nlcpy as vp
>>> a = vp.array([[10, 7, 4], [3, 2, 1]])
>>> a
array([[10,  7,  4],
       [ 3,  2,  1]])
>>> vp.median(a)
array(3.5)
>>> vp.median(a, axis=0)
array([6.5, 4.5, 2.5])
>>> vp.median(a, axis=1)
array([7., 2.])
>>> m = vp.median(a, axis=0)
>>> out = vp.zeros_like(m)
>>> vp.median(a, axis=0, out=m)
array([6.5, 4.5, 2.5])
>>> m
array([6.5, 4.5, 2.5])
>>> b = a.copy()
>>> vp.median(b, axis=1, overwrite_input=True)
array([7., 2.])
>>> assert not vp.all(a==b)
>>> b = a.copy()
>>> vp.median(b, axis=None, overwrite_input=True)
array(3.5)
>>> assert not vp.all(a==b)
