tf.contrib.distributions.WishartFull

class tf.contrib.distributions.WishartFull

Defined in tensorflow/contrib/distributions/python/ops/wishart.py.

See the guide: Statistical Distributions (contrib) > Multivariate distributions

The matrix Wishart distribution on positive definite matrices.

This distribution is defined by a scalar degrees of freedom df and a symmetric, positive definite scale matrix.

Evaluation of the pdf, determinant, and sampling are all O(k^3) operations where (k, k) is the event space shape.

Mathematical Details

The probability density function (pdf) is,

pdf(X; df, scale) = det(X)**(0.5 (df-k-1)) exp(-0.5 tr[inv(scale) X]) / Z
Z = 2**(0.5 df k) |det(scale)|**(0.5 df) Gamma_k(0.5 df)

where: df >= k denotes the degrees of freedom, scale is a symmetric, positive definite, k x k matrix, Z is the normalizing constant, and, Gamma_k is the multivariate Gamma function.

Examples

# Initialize a single 3x3 Wishart with Full factored scale matrix and 5
# degrees-of-freedom.(*)
df = 5
scale = ...  # Shape is [3, 3]; positive definite.
dist = tf.contrib.distributions.WishartFull(df=df, scale=scale)

# Evaluate this on an observation in R^3, returning a scalar.
x = ...  # A 3x3 positive definite matrix.
dist.prob(x)  # Shape is [], a scalar.

# Evaluate this on a two observations, each in R^{3x3}, returning a length two
# Tensor.
x = [x0, x1]  # Shape is [2, 3, 3].
dist.prob(x)  # Shape is [2].

# Initialize two 3x3 Wisharts with Full factored scale matrices.
df = [5, 4]
scale = ...  # Shape is [2, 3, 3].
dist = tf.contrib.distributions.WishartFull(df=df, scale=scale)

# Evaluate this on four observations.
x = [[x0, x1], [x2, x3]]  # Shape is [2, 2, 3, 3]; xi is positive definite.
dist.prob(x)  # Shape is [2, 2].

# (*) - To efficiently create a trainable covariance matrix, see the example
#   in tf.contrib.distributions.matrix_diag_transform.

Properties

allow_nan_stats

Python bool describing behavior when a stat is undefined.

Stats return +/- infinity when it makes sense. E.g., the variance of a Cauchy distribution is infinity. However, sometimes the statistic is undefined, e.g., if a distribution's pdf does not achieve a maximum within the support of the distribution, the mode is undefined. If the mean is undefined, then by definition the variance is undefined. E.g. the mean for Student's T for df = 1 is undefined (no clear way to say it is either + or - infinity), so the variance = E[(X - mean)**2] is also undefined.

Returns:

  • allow_nan_stats: Python bool.

batch_shape

Shape of a single sample from a single event index as a TensorShape.

May be partially defined or unknown.

The batch dimensions are indexes into independent, non-identical parameterizations of this distribution.

Returns:

  • batch_shape: TensorShape, possibly unknown.

cholesky_input_output_matrices

Boolean indicating if Tensor input/outputs are Cholesky factorized.

df

Wishart distribution degree(s) of freedom.

dimension

Dimension of underlying vector space. The p in R^(p*p).

dtype

The DType of Tensors handled by this Distribution.

event_shape

Shape of a single sample from a single batch as a TensorShape.

May be partially defined or unknown.

Returns:

  • event_shape: TensorShape, possibly unknown.

name

Name prepended to all ops created by this Distribution.

parameters

Dictionary of parameters used to instantiate this Distribution.

reparameterization_type

Describes how samples from the distribution are reparameterized.

Currently this is one of the static instances distributions.FULLY_REPARAMETERIZED or distributions.NOT_REPARAMETERIZED.

Returns:

An instance of ReparameterizationType.

scale_operator_pd

Wishart distribution scale matrix as an OperatorPD.

validate_args

Python bool indicating possibly expensive checks are enabled.

Methods

__init__

__init__(
    df,
    scale,
    cholesky_input_output_matrices=False,
    validate_args=False,
    allow_nan_stats=True,
    name='WishartFull'
)

Construct Wishart distributions.

Args:

  • df: float or double Tensor. Degrees of freedom, must be greater than or equal to dimension of the scale matrix.
  • scale: float or double Tensor. The symmetric positive definite scale matrix of the distribution.
  • cholesky_input_output_matrices: Python bool. Any function which whose input or output is a matrix assumes the input is Cholesky and returns a Cholesky factored matrix. Example log_prob input takes a Cholesky and sample_n returns a Cholesky when cholesky_input_output_matrices=True.
  • validate_args: Python bool, default False. When True distribution parameters are checked for validity despite possibly degrading runtime performance. When False invalid inputs may silently render incorrect outputs.
  • allow_nan_stats: Python bool, default True. When True, statistics (e.g., mean, mode, variance) use the value "NaN" to indicate the result is undefined. When False, an exception is raised if one or more of the statistic's batch members are undefined.
  • name: Python str name prefixed to Ops created by this class.

batch_shape_tensor

batch_shape_tensor(name='batch_shape_tensor')

Shape of a single sample from a single event index as a 1-D Tensor.

The batch dimensions are indexes into independent, non-identical parameterizations of this distribution.

Args:

  • name: name to give to the op

Returns:

  • batch_shape: Tensor.

cdf

cdf(
    value,
    name='cdf'
)

Cumulative distribution function.

Given random variable X, the cumulative distribution function cdf is:

cdf(x) := P[X <= x]

Args:

  • value: float or double Tensor.
  • name: The name to give this op.

Returns:

  • cdf: a Tensor of shape sample_shape(x) + self.batch_shape with values of type self.dtype.

copy

copy(**override_parameters_kwargs)

Creates a deep copy of the distribution.

Note: the copy distribution may continue to depend on the original initialization arguments.

Args:

**override_parameters_kwargs: String/value dictionary of initialization arguments to override with new values.

Returns:

  • distribution: A new instance of type(self) initialized from the union of self.parameters and override_parameters_kwargs, i.e., dict(self.parameters, **override_parameters_kwargs).

covariance

covariance(name='covariance')

Covariance.

Covariance is (possibly) defined only for non-scalar-event distributions.

For example, for a length-k, vector-valued distribution, it is calculated as,

Cov[i, j] = Covariance(X_i, X_j) = E[(X_i - E[X_i]) (X_j - E[X_j])]

where Cov is a (batch of) k x k matrix, 0 <= (i, j) < k, and E denotes expectation.

Alternatively, for non-vector, multivariate distributions (e.g., matrix-valued, Wishart), Covariance shall return a (batch of) matrices under some vectorization of the events, i.e.,

Cov[i, j] = Covariance(Vec(X)_i, Vec(X)_j) = [as above]

where Cov is a (batch of) k' x k' matrices, 0 <= (i, j) < k' = reduce_prod(event_shape), and Vec is some function mapping indices of this distribution's event dimensions to indices of a length-k' vector.

Args:

  • name: The name to give this op.

Returns:

Given random variable X, the cumulative distribution function cdf is:

Given random variable X, the survival function is defined:

log_survival_function(x) = Log[ P[X > x] ]
                         = Log[ 1 - P[X <= x] ]
                         = Log[ 1 - cdf(x) ]

Typically, different numerical approximations can be used for the log survival function, which are more accurate than 1 - cdf(x) when x >> 1.
