stemflow.utils.validation

Validation module. Most of these functions are plain checking and easy to understand.

check_random_state(seed)

Turn seed into a np.random.RandomState instance.

Parameters:

  • seed (Union[None, int, RandomState]) –

    If seed is None, return the RandomState singleton used by np.random. If seed is an int, return a new RandomState instance seeded with seed. If seed is already a RandomState instance, return it. Otherwise raise ValueError.

Returns:

  • RandomState –

    The random state object based on seed parameter.
