Did you try larger arrays/tuples? I would guess that makes a significant difference. On Fri, Jan 7, 2011 at 7:58 AM, EMMEL Thomas wrote: > Hi, > > There are some discussions on the speed of numpy compared to Numeric in > this list, however I have a topic > I don't understand in detail, maybe so

[Numpy-discussion] speed of numpy.ndarray compared to Numeric.array

Hi, There are some discussions on the speed of numpy compared to Numeric in this list, however I have a topic I don't understand in detail, maybe someone can enlighten me... I use python 2.6 on a SuSE installation and test this: #Python 2.6 (r26:66714, Mar 30 2010, 00:29:28) #[GCC 4.3.2 [gcc-4_3

[Numpy-discussion] code for multidimensional scaling?

2011-01-07 Thread Brian Murphy
Hi, I'm new to the list, so I hope my question is appropriate (I've already sent the same posting to the SciPy Users list). I'm looking for code that implements multi-dimensional scaling (e.g. like Matlab's mdscale command) in Python. My best guess was that I would find it in the Scikit Learn
