pytorch - How to create a tensor of given shape and interval?

Question

I am going through Pytorch and want to create a random tensor of shape 5X3 in the interval [3,7)

torch.rand(5,3) will return a random tensor of shape 5 X 3, however, I could not figure to set the given interval.

Please guide.

Answer 1

You can map U ~ [0, 1] to U ~ [a, b] with u -> (a - b)*u + b:

(a - b)*torch.rand(5, 3) + b
