I am currently converting some Matlab code to Python and I am wondering if there is a similar function to Matlab's shiftdim(A, n)
B = shiftdim(A,n) shifts the dimensions of an array A by n positions. shiftdim shifts the dimensions to the left when n is a positive integer and to the right when n is a negative integer. For example, if A is a 2-by-3-by-4 array, then shiftdim(A,2) returns a 4-by-2-by-3 array.
If you use numpy you can use np.moveaxis
.
From the docs :
>>> x = np.zeros((3, 4, 5))
>>> np.moveaxis(x, 0, -1).shape
(4, 5, 3)
>>> np.moveaxis(x, -1, 0).shape
(5, 3, 4)
numpy.moveaxis(a, source, destination)[source]
Parameters a: np.ndarray The array whose axes should be reordered. source: int or sequence of int Original positions of the axes to move. These must be unique. destination: int or sequence of int Destination positions for each of the original axes. These must also be unique.
shiftdim
's function is a bit more complex than shifting axes around.
shiftdim(A, n)
, if n is positive, shift the axes to the left by n (ie, rotate), but if n is negative, shift the axes to the right and append trailing dimensions of size 1.shiftdim(A)
, remove any trailing dimensions of size 1.from collections import deque
import numpy as np
def shiftdim(array, n=None):
if n is not None:
if n >= 0:
axes = tuple(range(len(array.shape)))
new_axes = deque(axes)
new_axes.rotate(n)
return np.moveaxis(array, axes, tuple(new_axes))
return np.expand_dims(array, axis=tuple(range(-n)))
else:
idx = 0
for dim in array.shape:
if dim == 1:
idx += 1
else:
break
axes = tuple(range(idx))
# Note that this returns a tuple of 2 results
return np.squeeze(array, axis=axes), len(axes)
Same examples as the Matlab docs
a = np.random.uniform(size=(4, 2, 3, 5))
print(shiftdim(a, 2).shape) # prints (3, 5, 4, 2)
print(shiftdim(a, -2).shape) # prints (1, 1, 4, 2, 3, 5)
a = np.random.uniform(size=(1, 1, 3, 2, 4))
b, nshifts = shiftdim(a)
print(nshifts) # prints 2
print(b.shape) # prints (3, 2, 4)
