I have a CSR matrix:
>> print type(tfidf)
<class 'scipy.sparse.csr.csr_matrix'>
I want to take dot product of two rows of this CSR matrix:
>> v1 = tfidf.getrow(1)
>> v2 = tfidf.getrow(2)
>> print type(v1)
<class 'scipy.sparse.csr.csr_matrix'>
Both v1
and v2
are also CSR matrices. So I use dot
subroutine:
>> print v1.dot(v2)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "cosine.py", line 10, in <module>
print v1.dot(v2)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/scipy/sparse/base.py", line 211, in dot
return self * other
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/scipy/sparse/base.py", line 246, in __mul__
raise ValueError('dimension mismatch')
ValueError: dimension mismatch
They are the rows of the same matrix, so their dimentions ought to match:
>> print v1.shape
(1, 4507)
>> print v2.shape
(1, 4507)
Why does dot
subroutine not work?
Thanks.
To perform a dot product of two row vectors, you have to transpose one. the one to transpose depends on the result you're looking for.
import scipy as sp
a = sp.matrix([1, 2, 3])
b = sp.matrix([4, 5, 6])
In [13]: a.dot(b.transpose())
Out[13]: matrix([[32]])
Versus
In [14]: a.transpose().dot(b)
Out[14]:
matrix([[ 4, 5, 6],
[ 8, 10, 12],
[12, 15, 18]])
