python - Numpy：广播+布尔索引

Question

我有以下 numpy 数组

A: shape (n1, n2) array of float
B: shape (n2,) array of float
M: shape (n1, n2) array of bool

如何将以下伪代码转换为高效的真实代码？数组可能很大，可能超过 1 亿个元素。

A[M] = ("B broadcast to shape (n1,n2)")[M]

Answer 1

Broadcasting is simple and memory efficient:

A, B, M = np.broadcast_arrays(A, B, M)

However using this B in your code A[M] = B[M] would not be memory efficient because B[M] has as many real elements as M has True values.

Instead use:

np.putmask(A, M, B)

Since B is repeated automatically with the putmask function, you should not even have to broadcast it. Though I guess it cannot hurt to do that.
