maximum

maximum(x1, x2, out=None, **kwargs)

Returns element-wise maximum of the input arrays with broadcasting.

Parameters:

x1, x2 : scalar or mxnet.numpy.ndarray

The arrays holding the elements to be compared. They must have the same shape, or shapes that can be broadcast to a single shape.

Returns:

out : mxnet.numpy.ndarray or scalar

The maximum of x1 and x2, element-wise. This is a scalar if both x1 and x2 are scalars.

Examples

>>> np.maximum(np.array([2, 3, 4]), np.array([1, 5, 2]))
array([2., 5., 4.])

>>> np.maximum(np.eye(2), np.array([0.5, 2])) # broadcasting
array([[1. , 2. ],
       [0.5, 2. ]])
