mseeger commented on issue #9982: Unary ops logcdf_normal, derivlogcdf_normal for log CDF of standard n? URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/9982#issuecomment-370703827 @piiswrong Are you worried about polluting the global namespace with specific mathematical functions? Any suggestions? Some thoughts: - Could move them to random namespace, as this is about functions related to random variates. Drawback is that random so far has only sampling ops - A new namespace, say stats? Drawback: Not much in there - An operator called "normal_funcs" with a string arg, which I can set to "logcdf", "deriv_logcdf". This is just a bit harder to implement, cannot use the default macros for unary ops - Move to contrib namespace. I'd be OK with this, but note this is just as solid as gamma or gammaln, there is nothing experimental about this code. I have the feeling that stuff in contrib is not generally trusted These are really useful functions, MXNet should have them. Just let me know what to do.
