COO.sum

COO.sum(axis=None, keepdims=False, dtype=None, out=None)[source]

Performs a sum operation along the given axes. Uses all axes by default.

Parameters
  • axis (Union[int, Iterable[int]], optional) – The axes along which to sum. Uses all axes by default.

  • keepdims (bool, optional) – Whether or not to keep the dimensions of the original array.

  • dtype (numpy.dtype) – The data type of the output array.

Returns

The reduced output sparse array.

Return type

COO

numpy.sum

Equivalent numpy function.

scipy.sparse.coo_matrix.sum()

Equivalent Scipy function.

nansum

Function with NaN skipping.

Notes

  • This function internally calls COO.sum_duplicates to bring the array into canonical form.

Examples

You can use COO.sum to sum an array across any dimension.

>>> x = np.ones((5, 5), dtype=np.int)
>>> s = COO.from_numpy(x)
>>> s2 = s.sum(axis=1)
>>> s2.todense()  
array([5, 5, 5, 5, 5])

You can also use the keepdims argument to keep the dimensions after the sum.

>>> s3 = s.sum(axis=1, keepdims=True)
>>> s3.shape
(5, 1)

You can pass in an output datatype, if needed.

>>> s4 = s.sum(axis=1, dtype=np.float16)
>>> s4.dtype
dtype('float16')

By default, this reduces the array down to one number, summing along all axes.

>>> s.sum()
25
