To generate random array for ObservedRV in
sample_ppc
andsample_prior_predictive
ashape
kwarg sometimes is needed to make sure the generated array has the same shape as the observed.This PR improved that to make sure the shape is inferred during random number generation.
Previously I tried to add the shape attr to
ObservedRV
at the model creation, but turns out it breaks thesample_ppc
fortheano.shared
observation. I try a different approach here to always reset the distribution shape at generation.
