首先看定义:
Dot product of two arrays. Specifically,
If both a and b are 1-D arrays, it is inner product of vectors (without complex conjugation).
If both a and b are 2-D arrays, it is matrix multiplication, but using
matmul
ora @ b
is preferred.If either a or b is 0-D (scalar), it is equivalent to
multiply
and usingnumpy.multiply(a, b)
ora * b
is preferred.If a is an N-D array and b is a 1-D array, it is a sum product over the last axis of a and b.
If a is an N-D array and b is an M-D array (where
M>=2
), it is a sum product over the last axis of a and the second-to-last axis of b:dot(a, b)[i,j,k,m] = sum(a[i,j,:] * b[k,:,m])
Parameters: | a : array_like
b : array_like
out : ndarray, optional
|
---|---|
Returns: | output : ndarray

Raises: | ValueError

Examples
>>> np.dot(3, 4)
12
Neither argument is complex-conjugated:
>>> np.dot([2j, 3j], [2j, 3j])
(-13+0j)
For 2-D arrays it is the matrix product:
>>> a = [[1, 0], [0, 1]]
>>> b = [[4, 1], [2, 2]]
>>> np.dot(a, b)
array([[4, 1],
[2, 2]])
>>> a = np.arange(3*4*5*6).reshape((3,4,5,6))
>>> b = np.arange(3*4*5*6)[::-1].reshape((5,4,6,3))
>>> np.dot(a, b)[2,3,2,1,2,2]
499128
>>> sum(a[2,3,2,:] * b[1,2,:,2])
499128
