matrix_rank scipy version ?

random question, while catching up with some linalg (matrix decomposition and least squares with reduced rank) scipy has rank-revealing (pivoting) QR for a few versions now. Would it be worth it to add a scipy version of matrix_rank that uses QR, instead of SVD as in numpy (IIRC) What's the cutoff for a QR version? Josef

playing with parsing fortran documentation in special cdflib https://gist.github.com/josef-pkt/6426618 some fortran files don't work example ################# cumpoi(s, xlam, cum, ccum) CUMulative POIsson distribution Returns the probability of S or fewer events in a Poisson distribution with mean XLAM. Parameters ---------- s : array_like Upper limit of cumulation of the Poisson. xlam : array_like Mean of the Poisson distribution. Returns ------- cum : array_like Cumulative poisson distribution. ccum : array_like Compliment of Cumulative poisson distribution. Notes ----- Uses formula 26.4.21 of Abramowitz and Stegun, Handbook of Mathematical Functions to reduce the cumulative Poisson to the cumulative chi-square distribution. ################# cumt(t, df, cum, ccum) CUMulative T-distribution Computes the integral from -infinity to T of the t-density. Parameters ---------- t : array_like Upper limit of integration of the t-density. df : array_like Degrees of freedom of the t-distribution. Returns ------- cum : array_like Cumulative t-distribution. ccum : array_like Compliment of Cumulative t-distribution. Notes ----- Formula 26.5.27 of Abramowitz and Stegun, Handbook of Mathematical Functions is used to reduce the t-distribution to an incomplete beta. ################# cumtnc(t, df, pnonc, cum, ccum) CUMulative Non-Central T-distribution Computes the integral from -infinity to T of the non-central t-density. Parameters ---------- t : array_like Upper limit of integration of the non-central t-density. df : array_like Degrees of freedom of the non-central t-distribution. pnonc : array_like Non-centrality parameter of the non-central t distibutio Returns ------- cum : array_like Cumulative t-distribution. ccum : array_like Compliment of Cumulative t-distribution. Notes ----- Upper tail of the cumulative noncentral t using formulae from page 532 of Johnson, Kotz, Balakrishnan, Coninuous Univariate Distributions, Vol 2, 2nd Edition. Wiley (1995) This implementation starts the calculation at i = lambda, which is near the largest Di. It then sums forward and backward.

So for MKL, you need non dummy wrappers iff the function returns a complex. A dirty patch seems to confirm that this fixes the issue, I will prepare an actual patch tomorrow, David > > - -- > Pauli Virtanen > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) > > iEYEARECAAYFAlIkwPQACgkQ6BQxb7O0pWBnkwCfeKj32CYYCPdEWVcYYMtq/OZM > 32wAoIn9yG/HNtUeh+XwqAm2uAS9sVQ5 > =CKBN > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > > _______________________________________________ > NumPy-Discussion mailing list > NumPy-Discussion(a)scipy.org > http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion >

ANN: Scipy 0.13.0 beta 1 release
by Ralf Gommers Sept. 2, 2013

Sept. 2, 2013

Hi all, I'm happy to announce the availability of the first beta release of Scipy 0.13.0. Please try this beta and report any issues on the scipy-dev mailing list. Source tarballs and release notes can be found at https://sourceforge.net/projects/scipy/files/scipy/0.13.0b1/. Windows and OS X installers will follow later (we have a minor infrastructure issue to solve, and I'm at EuroScipy now). Cheers, Ralf
