You could generate the subarrays using as_strided
:
import numpy as np
a = np.array([[ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4],
[ 5, 6, 7, 8, 9],
[10, 11, 12, 13, 14],
[15, 16, 17, 18, 19],
[20, 21, 22, 23, 24]])
sub_shape = (3,3)
view_shape = tuple(np.subtract(a.shape, sub_shape) + 1) + sub_shape
strides = a.strides + a.strides
sub_matrices = np.lib.stride_tricks.as_strided(a,view_shape,strides)
To get rid of your second “ugly” sum, alter your einsum
so that the output array only has j
and k
. This implies your second summation.
conv_filter = np.array([[0,-1,0],[-1,5,-1],[0,-1,0]])
m = np.einsum('ij,ijkl->kl',conv_filter,sub_matrices)
# [[ 6 7 8]
# [11 12 13]
# [16 17 18]]
