0 0 1 minute read

scipy.stats.trimboth(a, proportiontocut, axis=0) function slices off the portion of elements in the array from both the ends.

Parameters :
arr : [array_like] Input array or object to trim.
axis : Axis along which the mean is to be computed. By default axis = 0.
proportiontocut : Proportion (in range 0-1) of data to trim of each end.

Results : trimmed array elements from both the ends in the given proportion.

Code #1: Working

# stats.trimboth() method    
import numpy as np 
from scipy import stats 
    
arr1 = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9] 
  
  
print ("\narr1 : ", arr1) 
  
print ("\nclipped arr1 : \n", stats.trimboth(arr1, proportiontocut = .3)) 
print ("\nclipped arr1 : \n", stats.trimboth(arr1, proportiontocut = .1)) 

Output :

arr1 :  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

clipped arr1 : 
 [3 4 5 6]

clipped arr1 : 
 [1 3 2 4 5 6 7 8]

Code #2:

# stats.trimboth() method    
import numpy as np 
from scipy import stats 
   
   
arr1 = [[0, 12, 21, 3, 14], 
        [53, 16, 37, 85, 39]] 
  
print ("\narr1 : ", arr1) 
  
print ("\nclipped arr1 : \n",  
       stats.trimboth(arr1, proportiontocut = .3)) 
  
print ("\nclipped arr1 : \n",  
       stats.trimboth(arr1, proportiontocut = .1)) 
  
print ("\nclipped arr1 : \n",  
       stats.trimboth(arr1, proportiontocut = .1, axis = 1)) 
  
print ("\nclipped arr1 : \n",  
       stats.trimboth(arr1, proportiontocut = .1, axis = 0)) 

Output :

arr1 :  [[0, 12, 21, 3, 14], [53, 16, 37, 85, 39]]

clipped arr1 : 
 [[ 0 12 21  3 14]
 [53 16 37 85 39]]

clipped arr1 : 
 [[ 0 12 21  3 14]
 [53 16 37 85 39]]

clipped arr1 : 
 [[ 0  3 12 14 21]
 [16 37 39 53 85]]

clipped arr1 : 
 [[ 0 12 21  3 14]
 [53 16 37 85 39]]
