Mean Function¶

The mean function computes the mean of a signal. Mean is often used as a summary statistic for a signal. Using the SlidingWindow abstraction, the mean can be computed over a sliding window of the signal to be produce a set of features that can be used for a downstream task.

`mean_tf(x, where=lambda : not np.isnan(x))` ¶

Compute the mean of the values in x where where is True.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
`x`	`ndarray`	The array to compute the mean of.	required
`where`	`Callable[[Union[int, float, int_, float_]], Union[bool, bool_]]`	A function that takes a value and returns `True` or `False`. Default is `lambda x: not np.isnan(x)` i.e. a measurement is valid if it is not a `NaN` value.	`lambda : not numpy.isnan(x)`

Returns:

Type	Description
`Union[float, float_]`	The mean of the values in `x` where `where` is `True`.

Examples¶

import numpy as np
import autonfeat as aft
import autonfeat.functional as F

# Random data
n_samples = 100
x = np.random.rand(n_samples)

# Create sliding window
ws = 10
ss = 10
window = aft.SlidingWindow(window_size=ws, step_size=ss)

# Get featurizer
featurizer = window.use(F.mean)

# Get features
features = featurizer(x)

# Print features
print(features)
