how can I extract multiple random sub-sequences from a numpy array

Question

say I have a sequence s and I\'d like to select n random sub sequences from it each with length l and store in a matrix. Is there a mo

We can leverage np.lib.stride_tricks.as_strided based scikit-image's view_as_windows for efficient patch extraction, like so -

from skimage.util.shape import view_as_windows

# Get sliding windows (these are simply views)
w = view_as_windows(s, l)

# Index with indices, i for desired output
out = w[i]
