Numpy element-wise dot产品

Question

is there an elegant, numpy way to apply the dot product elementwise? Or how can the below code be translated into a nicer version?

m0 # shape (5, 3, 2, 2)
m1 # shape (5,    2, 2)
r = np.empty((5, 3, 2, 2))
for i in range(5):
    for j in range(3):
        r[i, j] = np.dot(m0[i, j], m1[i])

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Approach #1

Use np.einsum -

np.einsum('ijkl,ilm->ijkm',m0,m1)

Steps involved :

• Keep the first axes from the inputs aligned.

• Lose the last axis from m0 against second one from m1 in sum-reduction.

• Let remaining axes from m0 and m1 spread-out /expand with elementwise multiplications in an outer-product fashion.

Approach #2

If you are looking for performance and with the axis of sum-reduction having a smaller length, you are better off with one-loop and using matrix-multiplication with np.tensordot , like so -

s0,s1,s2,s3 = m0.shape
s4 = m1.shape[-1]
r = np.empty((s0,s1,s2,s4))
for i in range(s0):
    r[i] = np.tensordot(m0[i],m1[i],axes=([2],[0]))

---

Approach #3

Now, np.dot could be efficiently used on 2D inputs for some further performance boost. So, with it, the modified version, though a bit longer one, but hopefully the most performant one would be -

s0,s1,s2,s3 = m0.shape
s4 = m1.shape[-1]
m0.shape = s0,s1*s2,s3   # Get m0 as 3D for temporary usage
r = np.empty((s0,s1*s2,s4))
for i in range(s0):
    r[i] = m0[i].dot(m1[i])
r.shape = s0,s1,s2,s4
m0.shape = s0,s1,s2,s3  # Put m0 back to 4D

Function definitions -

def original_app(m0, m1):
    s0,s1,s2,s3 = m0.shape
    s4 = m1.shape[-1]
    r = np.empty((s0,s1,s2,s4))
    for i in range(s0):
        for j in range(s1):
            r[i, j] = np.dot(m0[i, j], m1[i])
    return r

def einsum_app(m0, m1):
    return np.einsum('ijkl,ilm->ijkm',m0,m1)

def tensordot_app(m0, m1):
    s0,s1,s2,s3 = m0.shape
    s4 = m1.shape[-1]
    r = np.empty((s0,s1,s2,s4))
    for i in range(s0):
        r[i] = np.tensordot(m0[i],m1[i],axes=([2],[0]))
    return r        

def dot_app(m0, m1):
    s0,s1,s2,s3 = m0.shape
    s4 = m1.shape[-1]
    m0.shape = s0,s1*s2,s3   # Get m0 as 3D for temporary usage
    r = np.empty((s0,s1*s2,s4))
    for i in range(s0):
        r[i] = m0[i].dot(m1[i])
    r.shape = s0,s1,s2,s4
    m0.shape = s0,s1,s2,s3  # Put m0 back to 4D
    return r

我认为numpy.inner（）是你真正想要的吗？
