random.choice的加权版本

我需要写一个加权版的random。选择(列表中的每个元素有不同的被选择的概率)。这是我想到的:

def weightedChoice(choices):
    """Like random.choice, but each element can have a different chance of
    being selected.

    choices can be any iterable containing iterables with two items each.
    Technically, they can have more than two items, the rest will just be
    ignored.  The first item is the thing being chosen, the second item is
    its weight.  The weights can be any numeric values, what matters is the
    relative differences between them.
    """
    space = {}
    current = 0
    for choice, weight in choices:
        if weight > 0:
            space[current] = choice
            current += weight
    rand = random.uniform(0, current)
    for key in sorted(space.keys() + [current]):
        if rand < key:
            return choice
        choice = space[key]
    return None

这个函数对我来说太复杂了，而且很丑。我希望这里的每个人都能提供一些改进的建议或其他方法。对我来说，效率没有代码的整洁和可读性重要。

加权选择的一个非常基本和简单的方法如下:

np.random.choice(['A', 'B', 'C'], p=[0.3, 0.4, 0.3])

如果你有一个加权字典而不是一个列表，你可以这样写

items = { "a": 10, "b": 5, "c": 1 } 
random.choice([k for k in items for dummy in range(items[k])])

注意(k, k范围的虚拟物品(物品[k])]产生这个列表(' a ', ' ', ' ', ' ', ' ', ' ', ' ', ' ', ' ', ' ', ' c ', ' b ', ' b ', ' b ', ' b ', ' b ']

如果您的加权选项列表是相对静态的，并且您希望频繁采样，则可以执行一个O(N)预处理步骤，然后使用相关答案中的函数在O(1)中进行选择。

# run only when `choices` changes.
preprocessed_data = prep(weight for _,weight in choices)

# O(1) selection
value = choices[sample(preprocessed_data)][0]

将权重排列成a 累积分布。使用random.random()来选择一个随机的浮点0.0 <= x < total。搜索用等分法进行分布。二等分的如http://docs.python.org/dev/library/bisect.html#other-examples中的示例所示。

from random import random
from bisect import bisect

def weighted_choice(choices):
    values, weights = zip(*choices)
    total = 0
    cum_weights = []
    for w in weights:
        total += w
        cum_weights.append(total)
    x = random() * total
    i = bisect(cum_weights, x)
    return values[i]

>>> weighted_choice([("WHITE",90), ("RED",8), ("GREEN",2)])
'WHITE'

如果需要做出多个选择，可以将其分成两个函数，一个用于构建累积权重，另一个用于对随机点进行等分。

import numpy as np
w=np.array([ 0.4,  0.8,  1.6,  0.8,  0.4])
np.random.choice(w, p=w/sum(w))

通解:

import random
def weighted_choice(choices, weights):
    total = sum(weights)
    treshold = random.uniform(0, total)
    for k, weight in enumerate(weights):
        total -= weight
        if total < treshold:
            return choices[k]
