I need to reduce the running time for quad() in python (I am integrating some thousands integrals). I found a similar question in here where they suggested to do several integrations and add the partial values. However that does not improve performance. Any thoughts? here is a simple example:
import numpy as np
from scipy.integrate import quad
from scipy.stats import norm
import time
funcB = lambda x: norm.pdf(x,0,1)
start = time.time()
good_missclasified,_ = quad(funcB, 0,3.3333)
stop = time.time()
time_elapsed = stop - start
print ('quad : ' + str(time_elapsed))
start = time.time()
num = np.linspace(0,3.3333,10)
Lv = []
last, lastG = 0, 0
for g in num:
Lval,x = quad(funcB, lastG, g)
last, lastG = last + Lval, g
Lv.append(last)
Lv = np.array(Lv)
stop = time.time()
time_elapsed = stop - start
print ('10 int : ' + str(time_elapsed))
print(good_missclasified,Lv[9])
