Summary
This release introduces several new linear algebra functions in `jax.scipy.linalg` and updates RNG API handling by moving related functionality to dtypes. It also deprecates positional arguments for certain array creation parameters and modifies the mesh context manager usage.
⚠️ Breaking Changes
- The `with mesh:` context manager is deprecated. Users must switch to using `with jax.set_mesh(mesh):` instead.
Migration Steps
- Replace usage of the deprecated `with mesh:` context manager with `with jax.set_mesh(mesh):`.
✨ New Features
- Added `jax.image.resize` support for `ResizeMethod.AREA`, aligning with TensorFlow's behavior.
- Added `jax.scipy.linalg.hadamard` for constructing Hadamard matrices.
- Added `jax.scipy.linalg.circulant` for constructing circulant matrices.
- Added `jax.scipy.linalg.dft` for constructing discrete Fourier transform matrices.
- Added `jax.scipy.linalg.leslie` for constructing Leslie matrices.
- Added `jax.scipy.linalg.companion` for constructing companion matrices from polynomial coefficients.
- Added `jax.scipy.linalg.fiedler` for constructing symmetric Fiedler matrices.
- Added `jax.scipy.linalg.helmert` for constructing Helmert matrices.
- RNG APIs were moved from "implementations" to dtypes.
- Added `jax.random.key_dtype` to retrieve the dtype corresponding to a PRNG implementation name.
- `jax.random.key` and `wrap_key_data` now accept an optional `dtype` argument.
Affected Symbols
⚡ Deprecations
- Passing `copy`, `order`, and `ndmin` arguments positionally to `jax.numpy.array` is deprecated; they must now be passed as keyword arguments.
- Python `dict_values`, generators, zip return type, and general iterators are deprecated by default when used as leaves in pytrees. Users relying on this behavior should pass an `is_leaf` argument to `jax.tree.*` methods.
