Compute tensor dot product along specified axes.
Given two tensors, a and b, and an array_like object containing two array_like objects, (a_axes, b_axes)
, sum the products of aâs and bâs elements (components) over the axes specified by a_axes
and b_axes
. The third argument can be a single non-negative integer_like scalar, N
; if it is such, then the last N
dimensions of a and the first N
dimensions of b are summed over.
Tensors to âdotâ.
The tensor dot product of the input.
Notes
When axes is integer_like, the sequence for evaluation will be: first the -Nth axis in a and 0th axis in b, and the -1th axis in a and Nth axis in b last.
When there is more than one axis to sum over - and they are not the last (first) axes of a (b) - the argument axes should consist of two sequences of the same length, with the first axis to sum over given first in both sequences, the second axis second, and so forth.
Examples
A âtraditionalâ example:
>>> a = np.arange(60.).reshape(3,4,5) >>> b = np.arange(24.).reshape(4,3,2) >>> c = np.tensordot(a,b, axes=([1,0],[0,1])) >>> c.shape (5, 2) >>> c array([[4400., 4730.], [4532., 4874.], [4664., 5018.], [4796., 5162.], [4928., 5306.]]) >>> # A slower but equivalent way of computing the same... >>> d = np.zeros((5,2)) >>> for i in range(5): ... for j in range(2): ... for k in range(3): ... for n in range(4): ... d[i,j] += a[k,n,i] * b[n,k,j] >>> c == d array([[ True, True], [ True, True], [ True, True], [ True, True], [ True, True]])
An extended example taking advantage of the overloading of + and *:
>>> a = np.array(range(1, 9)) >>> a.shape = (2, 2, 2) >>> A = np.array(('a', 'b', 'c', 'd'), dtype=object) >>> A.shape = (2, 2) >>> a; A array([[[1, 2], [3, 4]], [[5, 6], [7, 8]]]) array([['a', 'b'], ['c', 'd']], dtype=object)
>>> np.tensordot(a, A) # third argument default is 2 for double-contraction array(['abbcccdddd', 'aaaaabbbbbbcccccccdddddddd'], dtype=object)
>>> np.tensordot(a, A, 1) array([[['acc', 'bdd'], ['aaacccc', 'bbbdddd']], [['aaaaacccccc', 'bbbbbdddddd'], ['aaaaaaacccccccc', 'bbbbbbbdddddddd']]], dtype=object)
>>> np.tensordot(a, A, 0) # tensor product (result too long to incl.) array([[[[['a', 'b'], ['c', 'd']], ...
>>> np.tensordot(a, A, (0, 1)) array([[['abbbbb', 'cddddd'], ['aabbbbbb', 'ccdddddd']], [['aaabbbbbbb', 'cccddddddd'], ['aaaabbbbbbbb', 'ccccdddddddd']]], dtype=object)
>>> np.tensordot(a, A, (2, 1)) array([[['abb', 'cdd'], ['aaabbbb', 'cccdddd']], [['aaaaabbbbbb', 'cccccdddddd'], ['aaaaaaabbbbbbbb', 'cccccccdddddddd']]], dtype=object)
>>> np.tensordot(a, A, ((0, 1), (0, 1))) array(['abbbcccccddddddd', 'aabbbbccccccdddddddd'], dtype=object)
>>> np.tensordot(a, A, ((2, 1), (1, 0))) array(['acccbbdddd', 'aaaaacccccccbbbbbbdddddddd'], dtype=object)
