Sample from the Laplace distribution on mlx arrays

Usage

mlx_rand_laplace(
  dim,
  loc = 0,
  scale = 1,
  dtype = c("float32", "float64"),
  device = mlx_default_device()
)

Arguments

dim

Integer vector specifying the array shape/dimensions.

loc

Location parameter (mean) of the Laplace distribution.

scale

Scale parameter (diversity) of the Laplace distribution.

dtype

Desired MLX dtype ("float32" or "float64").

device

Execution target: provide "gpu", "cpu", or an mlx_stream created via mlx_new_stream(). Defaults to the current mlx_default_device().

Value

An mlx array with Laplace-distributed entries.

Examples

samples <- mlx_rand_laplace(c(2, 3), loc = 0, scale = 1)
