jax.random.normal

jax.random.normal(key, shape=(), dtype=<class 'numpy.float64'>)[source]

Sample standard normal random values with given shape and float dtype.

Parameters

  • key (Union[Any, PRNGKeyArray]) – a PRNG key used as the random key.

  • shape (Union[Sequence[int], NamedShape]) – optional, a tuple of nonnegative integers representing the result shape. Default ().

  • dtype (Any) – optional, a float dtype for the returned values (default float64 if jax_enable_x64 is true, otherwise float32).

Return type

ndarray

Returns

A random array with the specified shape and dtype.
