PyTorch torch.cumsum Function


Pytorch torch 参考手册Pytorch torch Reference Manual

torch.cumsumis a function in PyTorch used to compute the cumulative sum. It returns the cumulative sum along a specified dimension, i.e., the sum of all elements from the beginning to the current position.

Function Definition

torch.cumsum(input, dim, dtype=None)

Usage Example

Example

import torch

# Compute the cumulative sum
x = torch.tensor([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
result = torch.cumsum(x, dim=0)
print("Input:", x)
print("Cumulative sum:", result)
# Output: tensor([1, 3, 6, 10, 15])
# Explanation: 1, 1+2=3, 1+2+3=6, 1+2+3+4=10, 1+2+3+4+5=15

# 2-dimensional tensor
x = torch.tensor([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]], dtype=torch.float32)
# Cumulative along columns
result_col = torch.cumsum(x, dim=0)
print("\nCumulative sum along columns:")
print(result_col)
# tensor([[ 1,  2,  3],
#         [ 5,  7,  9]])

# Cumulative along rows
result_row = torch.cumsum(x, dim=1)
print("\nCumulative sum along rows:")
print(result_row)
# tensor([[ 1,  3,  6],
#         [ 4,  9, 15]])
