neighbour_index_gaps — MATH construct op

• 資料種類:pairs → signal

• 呼叫: import fullseye as fs; fs.ledger.neighbour_index_gaps(points, k=6)(要直接呼叫實作,import mathops; mathops.neighbour_index_gaps(points, k=6);從台帳取用則 opsmath.get("neighbour_index_gaps"))

用法

最近鄰之間在編號上相距多遠 —— 把斜列(parastichy)變成數。

> 以下的詳細說明為原文 —— 摘要與標題已翻譯。

In a phyllotactic pattern the visible spirals (parastichies) are not drawn

by anything; they are an illusion of which florets happen to sit next to each

other. This op replaces the illusion with a count: for every point, take its

*k* nearest neighbours in space and record the difference of their

ordering indices. The histogram of those differences is returned, index

`g holding how many neighbour pairs were g` apart.

★Why this earns its place: with the golden angle the peaks land on

Fibonacci numbers (8, 13, 21, 34, 55 ...), and with any other angle they

do not. That is a statement about the arrangement which can be checked

without looking at the picture — which is the whole point, because the

spirals look convincing at every angle.

Parameters

----------

points : (N, 2) array

Ordered points — the order is the data here, not a convenience.

k : int >= 1

Neighbours per point (6 is the natural choice: a well-packed planar

arrangement is locally hexagonal).

Returns a `signal: counts[g]` = number of neighbour pairs whose index

difference is `g (counts[0]` is always 0 — a point is not its own

neighbour).

Raises `ValueError: not an (N, 2) array; fewer than k + 1` points;

`k` below 1; non-finite coordinates.

Limits: the first points of a spiral sit near the centre where the packing

is degenerate, so the histogram has a low-index tail that carries no

parastichy information. Compare *peaks*, not the raw tail.

HALCON: no operator.

該族通用的輸入契約(fail-closed)

mathops 的每個運算子都先檢驗輸入再計算(不讓任何東西無聲通過):

• **complex 輸入一律 ValueError** —— 強制轉成 float64 會無聲丟掉虛部(numpy 只發一個 ComplexWarning,然後回傳一個「看似合理卻是錯的」實數)。請明確寫出 .real/.imag/abs(),或改用支援複數的 complexops。

• **含被遮罩元素的 masked array 一律 ValueError** —— 拒絕「剝掉遮罩直接使用下面原值」的隱式轉換。請明確選擇填補還是丟棄。

• **所有輸入中的 NaN/Inf 一律 ValueError**(明確給出個數後拒絕 —— 它會汙染整個結果)。

• 形狀嚴格:不對 1-D 與 2-D 做隱式提升或廣播(向量槽位收到矩陣、矩陣槽位收到向量都是 ValueError;請明確 reshape)。

• 尺寸上限:接受矩陣的運算子與 stat_histogram 的 bins,超過 mathops.MAX_ELEMENTS(2^26 ≈ 6700 萬個元素)即 ValueError。
