Constructors

constructor()

Signature

new EmpiricalCovariance(opts?: object): EmpiricalCovariance;

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
opts?object-
opts.assume_centered?booleanIf true, data are not centered before computation. Useful when working with data whose mean is almost, but not exactly zero. If false (default), data are centered before computation. Default Value false
opts.store_precision?booleanSpecifies if the estimated precision is stored. Default Value true

Returns

EmpiricalCovariance

Defined in: generated/covariance/EmpiricalCovariance.ts:23 (opens in a new tab)

Methods

dispose()

Disposes of the underlying Python resources.

Once dispose() is called, the instance is no longer usable.

Signature

dispose(): Promise<void>;

Returns

Promise<void>

Defined in: generated/covariance/EmpiricalCovariance.ts:99 (opens in a new tab)

error_norm()

Compute the Mean Squared Error between two covariance estimators.

Signature

error_norm(opts: object): Promise<number>;

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
optsobject-
opts.comp_cov?ArrayLike[]The covariance to compare with.
opts.norm?"frobenius" | "spectral"The type of norm used to compute the error. Available error types: - ‘frobenius’ (default): sqrt(tr(A^t.A)) - ‘spectral’: sqrt(max(eigenvalues(A^t.A)) where A is the error (comp\_cov \- self.covariance\_). Default Value 'frobenius'
opts.scaling?booleanIf true (default), the squared error norm is divided by n_features. If false, the squared error norm is not rescaled. Default Value true
opts.squared?booleanWhether to compute the squared error norm or the error norm. If true (default), the squared error norm is returned. If false, the error norm is returned. Default Value true

Returns

Promise<number>

Defined in: generated/covariance/EmpiricalCovariance.ts:116 (opens in a new tab)

fit()

Fit the maximum likelihood covariance estimator to X.

Signature

fit(opts: object): Promise<any>;

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
optsobject-
opts.X?ArrayLike[]Training data, where n\_samples is the number of samples and n\_features is the number of features.
opts.y?anyNot used, present for API consistency by convention.

Returns

Promise<any>

Defined in: generated/covariance/EmpiricalCovariance.ts:179 (opens in a new tab)

get_metadata_routing()

Get metadata routing of this object.

Please check User Guide on how the routing mechanism works.

Signature

get_metadata_routing(opts: object): Promise<any>;

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
optsobject-
opts.routing?anyA MetadataRequest encapsulating routing information.

Returns

Promise<any>

Defined in: generated/covariance/EmpiricalCovariance.ts:221 (opens in a new tab)

get_precision()

Getter for the precision matrix.

Signature

get_precision(opts: object): Promise<any>;

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
optsobject-
opts.precision_?ArrayLike[]The precision matrix associated to the current covariance object.

Returns

Promise<any>

Defined in: generated/covariance/EmpiricalCovariance.ts:259 (opens in a new tab)

init()

Initializes the underlying Python resources.

This instance is not usable until the Promise returned by init() resolves.

Signature

init(py: PythonBridge): Promise<void>;

Parameters

NameType
pyPythonBridge

Returns

Promise<void>

Defined in: generated/covariance/EmpiricalCovariance.ts:55 (opens in a new tab)

mahalanobis()

Compute the squared Mahalanobis distances of given observations.

Signature

mahalanobis(opts: object): Promise<ArrayLike>;

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
optsobject-
opts.X?ArrayLike[]The observations, the Mahalanobis distances of the which we compute. Observations are assumed to be drawn from the same distribution than the data used in fit.

Returns

Promise<ArrayLike>

Defined in: generated/covariance/EmpiricalCovariance.ts:297 (opens in a new tab)

score()

Compute the log-likelihood of X\_test under the estimated Gaussian model.

The Gaussian model is defined by its mean and covariance matrix which are represented respectively by self.location\_ and self.covariance\_.

Signature

score(opts: object): Promise<number>;

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
optsobject-
opts.X_test?ArrayLike[]Test data of which we compute the likelihood, where n\_samples is the number of samples and n\_features is the number of features. X\_test is assumed to be drawn from the same distribution than the data used in fit (including centering).
opts.y?anyNot used, present for API consistency by convention.

Returns

Promise<number>

Defined in: generated/covariance/EmpiricalCovariance.ts:336 (opens in a new tab)

set_score_request()

Request metadata passed to the score method.

Note that this method is only relevant if enable\_metadata\_routing=True (see sklearn.set\_config). Please see User Guide on how the routing mechanism works.

The options for each parameter are:

Signature

set_score_request(opts: object): Promise<any>;

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
optsobject-
opts.X_test?string | booleanMetadata routing for X\_test parameter in score.
