how to do this operation in numpy (chaining of tiling operation)?












2















I'm trying to do fast generation of numpy array, possibly without passing through python.



I want to build an 1D index numpy array that would take this as an input:



[2,3] and this [2,4] and would return this



 [0,1,0,1,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2]


Explanation:



I iterate from 0 to 2 (so [0,1] array) and repeat it 2 times : [0,1,0,1]



Then I iterate from 0 to 3 (so [0,1,2] array) and repeat it 4 times : [0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2]
Then I flattened everything.



Is there a way to do this fully in numpy?
For now I'm building each table separately in numpy by using np.tile() and flattening everything afterwards but I feel like there is a more efficient way that would only translate to C functions calls and no python

          Here is a vectorized solution:



          def cycles(spec):
          steps = np.repeat(*spec)
          ps = steps.cumsum()
          psj = np.zeros(ps[-1], int)
          psj[ps[:-1]] = steps[:-1]
          return np.arange(ps[-1]) - psj.cumsum()


          Demo:



          >>> cycles(((2,3),(2,4)))
          array([0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 2])

          • Thanks!However it's failing for some combinations: a = [4, 0, 1,0] b = [35, 72, 5, 72] cycles(a,b) I think it has to do with the 0 at the end of 'a' array

          • @lezebulon Rather pathological example and also easy to address. Just filter out the 0 positions. For example, add the line steps = steps[steps.astype(bool)] after the first line of the function body.

          I am not entirely sure if this is what you want; here each tuple in the call to func() contains first the range and then the repeat.



          import numpy


          def func(tups):
          Arr = numpy.empty(numpy.sum([ele[0] * ele[1] for ele in tups]), dtype=int)
          i = 0
          for ele in tups:
          Arr[i:i + ele[0] * ele[1]] = numpy.tile(numpy.arange(ele[0]), ele[1])
          i += ele[0] * ele[1]
          return Arr


          arr = func([(2, 3), (3, 4)])
          print(arr)
          # [0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 2 0 1 2 0 1 2 0 1 2]
