ot.utils.reduce_lazytensor(a, func, axis=None, nx=None, batch_size=100)[source]

Parameters:
  • a (LazyTensor) – LazyTensor to reduce

  • func (callable) – Function to apply to the LazyTensor

  • axis (int, optional) – Axis along which to reduce the LazyTensor. If None, reduce the LazyTensor to a scalar as a sum of fun over batches taken along axis 0. If 0 or 1 reduce the LazyTensor to a vector/matrix as a sum of fun over batches taken along axis.

ot.utils.reduce_lazytensor(a, func, axis=None, nx=None, batch_size=100)[source]

Reduce a LazyTensor along an axis with function fun using batches.

When axis=None, reduce the LazyTensor to a scalar as a sum of fun over batches taken along dim.

Warning

This function works for tensor of any order but the reduction can be done only along the first two axis (or global). Also, in order to work, it requires that the slice of size batch_size along the axis to reduce (or axis 0 if axis=None) is can be computed and fits in memory.

Parameters:
  • a (LazyTensor) – LazyTensor to reduce

  • func (callable) – Function to apply to the LazyTensor

  • axis (int, optional) – Axis along which to reduce the LazyTensor. If None, reduce the LazyTensor to a scalar as a sum of fun over batches taken along axis 0. If 0 or 1 reduce the LazyTensor to a vector/matrix as a sum of fun over batches taken along axis.

  • nx (Backend, optional) – Backend to use for the reduction

  • batch_size (int, optional) – Size of the batches to use for the reduction (default=100)

Returns:
