hypercoil.functional.symmap.symmap(input: Tensor, map: Callable, spd: bool = True, psi: float = 0, key: Tensor | None = None, recondition: Literal['eigenspaces', 'convexcombination'] = 'eigenspaces', fill_nans: bool = True, truncate_eigenvalues: bool = False) Tensor[source]#

Apply a specified matrix-valued transformation to a batch of symmetric (probably positive semidefinite) tensors.

Note

This should be faster than using jax.scipy.linalg.funm for Hermitian matrices, although it is less general and probably less stable. This method relies on the eigendecomposition of the matrix.

Dimension:
Input : \((N, *, D, D)\)

N denotes batch size, * denotes any number of intervening dimensions, D denotes matrix row and column dimension.

Output : \((N, *, D, D)\)

As above.

Parameters:
inputTensor

Batch of symmetric tensors to transform.

mapdimension-conserving callable

Transformation to apply as a matrix-valued function.

spdbool (default True)

Indicates that the matrices in the input batch are symmetric positive semidefinite; guards against numerical rounding errors and ensures all eigenvalues are nonnegative.

psifloat in [0, 1]

Conditioning factor to promote positive definiteness.

key: Tensor or None (default None)

Key for pseudo-random number generation. Required if recondition is set to 'eigenspaces' and psi is in (0, 1].

recondition'convexcombination' or 'eigenspaces' (default 'eigenspaces')

Method for reconditioning.

  • 'convexcombination' denotes that the original input will be replaced with a convex combination of the input and an identity matrix.

    \(\widetilde{X} = (1 - \psi) X + \psi I\)

    A suitable \(\psi\) can be used to ensure that all eigenvalues are positive.

  • 'eigenspaces' denotes that noise will be added to the original input along the diagonal.

    \(\widetilde{X} = X + \psi I - \xi I\)

    where each element of \(\xi\) is independently sampled uniformly from \((0, \psi)\). In addition to promoting positive definiteness, this method promotes eigenspaces with dimension 1 (no degenerate/repeated eigenvalues). Nondegeneracy of eigenvalues is required for differentiation through SVD.

fill_nansbool (default True)

Indicates that any NaNs among the transformed eigenvalues should be replaced with zeros.

truncate_eigenvaluesbool (default False)

Indicates that very small eigenvalues, which might for instance occur due to numerical errors in the decomposition, should be truncated to zero. Note that you should not do this if you wish to differentiate through this operation, or if you require the input to be positive definite. For these use cases, consider using the psi and recondition parameters.

Returns:
outputTensor

Transformation of each matrix in the input batch.
