multipoly 0.9.1

A multivariate polynomial module.

multipoly

A multivariate polynomial module.

This package provides a single class, MultiPoly, to handle multivariate polynomials of form

$$ p(\vec{x}) = \sum_{0\leq n\leq\deg(p)}a_n(\vec{x}-\vec{c})^n = \sum_{n_0=0}^{\deg_0(p)}\cdots\sum_{n_{\dim(p)-1}=0}^{\deg_{\dim(p)-1}(p)}a_{n_0\cdots n_{\dim(p)-1}}(x_0-c_0)^{n_0}\cdots(x_{\dim(p)-1}-c_{\dim(p)-1})^{n_{\dim(p)-1}} $$

where $n$ and $\deg(p)$ are multi-indices. This differs from the usual upper sum limit $|n|\leq\deg(p)$ where $n$ is a multi-index and $\deg(p)$ a natural number, because this way the degree in every variable can be controlled individually.

Installation

pip install multipoly

Usage

A polynomial can be initialized in two ways:

• With the constructor Multipoly(a, c=None), that takes the coefficients and optional offsets. The coefficients are of shape deg, that is a tuple with the degree for every variable.
• By fitting data with Multipoly.fit(X, y, deg, c=None).

MultiPoly objects have

• a dimension dim, the number of variables &
• a degree deg, the degrees in its variables.

They can

• be called on a single datapoint p(x, y, ...) or on multiple datapoints in a 2D numpy.array,
• rounded p.round(decimals=0), to round coefficients a and offsets c &
• be converted to strings with toString(symbols=None), where the symbols for its variables can be specified (__str__ defaults to x0, x1, ...).
