uvex_transients.models.core.parameters.Parameter.sample_latent_variable

Parameter.sample_latent_variable(size: int = 1, *, rng: RNGInput = None) → FloatArray

Draw size samples of the latent variable \(z\).

If is_fixed, every draw is the (transformed) fixed value; otherwise this delegates to prior.

Parameters:

• size (int, optional) – Number of samples to draw. The default is 1.

• rng (numpy.random.Generator, int, or None, optional) – Random-number source. Unused when is_fixed.

Returns:

Latent-space samples with shape (size,).

Return type:

numpy.ndarray
