exponential_logpdf

std.stats.exponential_logpdf · Level L1

The exponential distribution's log density at x ≥ 0: log λ − λx.

log f(x) = log λ − λx

Signature

exponential_logpdf(x: f64[n], rate: f64[]) → f64[n]

Structure

The function as NOVA stores it: one box per input, operation and output, and arrows that carry values. A double border marks another library function this one runs — called once, or by Scan once per element; select it to open that function.

Verification

  • Signature proven by NOVA’s shape solver, for every size.
  • Agrees with the reference np.log(rate) − rate·x to 80 digits (100-digit arithmetic), on all 40 test cases.
  • All 161 float64 results inside the running error bound; the closest uses 57% of it.
  • Interpreter and NumPy backend return bit-identical results.
  • At float32 too: the 40 test cases rounded to float32, and 40 of them inside the running error bound at u = 2⁻²⁴; the closest uses 52% of it.
Accuracy in detail
correctly rounded (the float64 nearest the exact value)
76%
bit-equal to the NumPy formula in float64
100%
largest error, in units in the last place
26

Large ulp counts appear where a result is tiny next to the numbers it is computed from (after cancellation, for example), so one unit in the last place is tiny too; the absolute error is still inside the bound. Results within their own error of zero are not counted.

The semantic hash of the graph. It changes when the program changes, and never when only its documentation does.

Needs
no capability: a pure function

Through NOVA’s control layer, the symbol launches this function only while the program still matches what it pins: a change to this graph, or to any graph it reaches, needs a migration first.
