kmapper.Cover

class kmapper.Cover(n_cubes=10, perc_overlap=0.5, limits=None, verbose=0)

Helper class that defines the default covering scheme

It calculates the cover based on the following formula for overlap. (https://arxiv.org/pdf/1706.00204.pdf)

             |cube[i] intersection cube[i+1]|
overlap = --------------------------------------
                      |cube[i]|

Parameters

• n_cubes (int) – Number of hypercubes along each dimension. Sometimes referred to as resolution.

• perc_overlap (float) – Amount of overlap between adjacent cubes calculated only along 1 dimension.

• limits (Numpy Array (n_dim,2)) – (lower bound, upper bound) for every dimension If a value is set to np.float(‘inf’), the bound will be assumed to be the min/max value of the dimension Also, if limits == None, the limits are defined by the maximum and minimum value of the lens for all dimensions. i.e. [[min_1, max_1], [min_2, max_2], [min_3, max_3]]

Example

>>> import numpy as np
>>> from kmapper.cover import Cover
>>> data = np.random.random((100,2))
>>> cov = Cover(n_cubes=15, perc_overlap=0.75)
>>> cube_centers = cov.fit(data)
>>> cov.transform_single(data, cube_centers[0])
