cunumeric.argmax#

cunumeric.argmax(a: ndarray, axis: int | None = None, out: ndarray | None = None, *, keepdims: bool = False) ndarray#

Returns the indices of the maximum values along an axis.

Parameters:
  • a (array_like) – Input array.

  • axis (int, optional) – By default, the index is into the flattened array, otherwise along the specified axis.

  • out (ndarray, optional) – If provided, the result will be inserted into this array. It should be of the appropriate shape and dtype.

  • keepdims (bool, optional) – If this is set to True, the axes which are reduced are left in the result as dimensions with size one. With this option, the result will broadcast correctly against the array.

Returns:

index_array – Array of indices into the array. It has the same shape as a.shape with the dimension along axis removed.

Return type:

ndarray[int]

Notes

CuNumeric’s parallel implementation may yield different results from NumPy when the array contains NaN(s).
