Sample from a truncated normal distribution on mlx arrays

Usage

mlx_rand_truncated_normal(lower, upper, dim, dtype = c("float32", "float64"))

Arguments

lower

Lower bound of the truncated normal.

upper

Upper bound of the truncated normal.

dim

Integer vector specifying array dimensions (shape).

dtype

Data type string. Supported types include:

  • Floating point: "float32", "float64"

  • Integer: "int8", "int16", "int32", "int64", "uint8", "uint16", "uint32", "uint64"

  • Other: "bool", "complex64"

Not all functions support all types. See individual function documentation.

Value

An mlx array with truncated normally distributed entries.

Examples

samples <- mlx_rand_truncated_normal(-1, 1, c(5, 5))
