plot a 3D graph using points in matlab - matlab

I am struggling to create a 3D graph using data comming from an array. for example
x = [ 12 23 43 89 56 23 15 78 89 56 20 8]
y = [ 120 56 69 89 56 15 65 89 70 69 27 10]
z = [ 89 56 43 89 56 23 15 63 23 78 36 9]
this is sample set of points I already succeeded to plot those points.
now am trying to join them together to form a surface.
what am trying to plot.
this is what i have

How i can find homogeneity and enargy of image block

Suppose I have block of pixels form an image as following
8 5 22 94 63
65 98 52 41 32
65 21 48 59 77
20 14 15 63 52
21 63 77 85 95
how can I find homogeneity and energyof these pixels (block)
and I tried to compute entropy for these values as following :
H=hist(block(:));
pro=H./25;
pro(pro==0)=[]; % remove zeros
Ent=-sum(pro.*log2(pro)); %entropy equation
Is this correct way to calculate the entropy?

Matlab: select submatrix from matrix by certain criteria

I have a matrix A
A=[f magic(10)]
A=
931142103 92 99 1 8 15 67 74 51 58 40
931142103 98 80 7 14 16 73 55 57 64 41
931142103 4 81 88 20 22 54 56 63 70 47
459200101 85 87 19 21 3 60 62 69 71 28
459200101 86 93 25 2 9 61 68 75 52 34
459200101 17 24 76 83 90 42 49 26 33 65
459200101 23 5 82 89 91 48 30 32 39 66
37833100 79 6 13 95 97 29 31 38 45 72
37833100 10 12 94 96 78 35 37 44 46 53
37833100 11 18 100 77 84 36 43 50 27 59
The first column are firm codes. The rest columns are firms' data, with each row referring to the firm in Column 1 in a given year. Notice that years may not be balance for every firms.
I would like to subtract sub-matrices according to the first column. For instance, for A(1:3,2:11) for 931142103:
A(1:3,2:11)
ans =
92 99 1 8 15 67 74 51 58 40
98 80 7 14 16 73 55 57 64 41
4 81 88 20 22 54 56 63 70 47
Same as 459200101 (which would be A(4:7,2:11)) and A(8:10,2:11) for 37833100.
I get a sense that the code should like this:
indices=find(A(:,1));
obs=size(A(:,1));
for i=1:obs,
if i==indices(i ??)
A{i}=A(??,2:11);
end
end
I have difficulties in indexing these complicated codes: 459200101 and 37833100 in order to gather them together. And how can I write the rows of my submatrix A{i}?
Thanks so much!
One approach with arrayfun -
%// Get unique entries from first column of A and keep the order
%// with 'stable' option i.e. don't sort
unqA1 = unique(A(:,1),'stable')
%// Use arrayfun to select each such submatrix and store as a cell
%// in a cell array, which is the final output
outA = arrayfun(#(n) A(A(:,1)==unqA1(n),:),1:numel(unqA1),'Uni',0)
Or this -
[~,~,row_idx] = unique(A(:,1),'stable')
outA = arrayfun(#(n) A(row_idx==n,:),1:max(row_idx),'Uni',0)
Finally, you can verify results with a call to celldisp(outA)
If values in column 1 always appear grouped (as in your example), you can use mat2cell as follows:
result = mat2cell(A, diff([0; find(diff(A(:,1))); size(A,1)]));
If they don't, just sort the rows of A according to column 1 before applying the above:
A = sortrows(A,1);
result = mat2cell(A, diff([0; find(diff(A(:,1))); size(A,1)]));
If you don't mind the results internally not being ordered, you can use accumarray for this:
[~,~,I] = unique(A(:,1),'stable');
partitions = accumarray(I, 1:size(A,1), [], #(I){A(I,2:end)});

Matlab: 3D Surface Plot of values from own vectors

I have 3 vectors with values for coordinates (X,Y,Z) and I want to plot them as a surface. I have tried all sorts of solutions from here and other forums and cannot for the life of me get it to look like anything that makes sense. I have a picture that can describe the situation better but I can't post it as I don't have enough reputation. Please help. Thank you.
EDIT: This is the link to the picture :
In the picture, the origin of each vector arrow represents the point in a 3D coordinate, with the length of the vector arrow giving the magnitude of the required torque to move at that point in 3D space.
Right now, the data is separated in line vectors with each point's coordinate: so that's one vector for the X, one for Y. Z is one line inside a 3 line matrix as the whole matrix describes the required torque in a 3 coordinate axes.
I've tried using meshgridon the X and Y vectors and then attributed the Z value using griddataand then surfbut I'm not getting something that looks like the original:
The plot is linear but I'm pretty sure the data is not... at least not that linear.
It seems like you want want to plot the single points decribed by the vectors, here you have an old answer of mine (as a bonus you will have nice colorful plots 'cause that's what the original question asked):
Assuming Data=[Vec1,Vec2,Vec3,...] and VecN=[Xn,Yn,Zn]'
"
If you want to plot points, you can define an RGB color and plot single points with hold on like this:
hold on
for i=1:length(Data(:,1))
plot3(Data(i,1),Data(i,2),Data(i,3),'Color',[(i/100*255)/255 0/255 (255-(i/100*255))/255],'LineWidth',2)
end
shg
"
Managed to solve the problem. As mentioned, the data was not uniform and because of that, surfwas jumping from one end of the plot to the other, creating a total mess. Solved it by organising the values linearly using linspaceand then using those values to create the meshgrid and then assign the Z values using griddata with a cubic interpolation.. Managed to produce proper looking surface plots with the data on hand.
Plot each data point separately within a loop:
figure; hold on; grid on;
for i = 1:length(x)
stem3(x(i),y(i),z(i));
end
Don't forget to add hold on. Use "Rotate 3D" button from the toolbar in the figure window if the plot was shown in 2D at first.
You can use griddata parameter to natural, cubic or v4. This will do interpolation and make your graph with non-uniform data smooth

Morphological dilation on Greyscale image using a neighborhood of size n x n in MATLAB

The Dilation process is performed by laying the structuring element B on the image A and sliding it across the image in a manner similar to convolution.
I understand the main concept behind the mathematical morphology dilation of the grayscale images, but i still have one question :
Can the values of the structure element be not chosen by the user ? In other words, can we perform a dilation process on the image by just choosing the size and shape of the structure element without specifying its elements?
For more precision, i will explain well my question by an example : Assume a greyscale image I of size 160 x 160 to be processed (dilated in this case) by a neighborhood of size 8 x 8. I didn't specify the elements of this neighborhood, so their elements are from the image itself. For example i wrote the matlab code below:
Max_image = max_filter(I, [0 0 7 7]);
Where the function max_filter is:
[n m] = size(I); % n=160 and m=160
B = I;
for i = 1:m-7,
B(:,i) = max(I(:,i:i+7),[],2);
end
for i=m-7+1:m
B(:,i) = max(I(:,i:min(end,i+7),[],2);
end
for i = 1:n-7,
I(i,:) = max(B(max(1,i):min(end,i+7),:),[],1);
end
for i = n-7+1:n,
I(i,:) = max(B(i:min(end,i+7),:),[],1);
end
Does that is still considered as a morphological dilation operation ? Recall that i used a structure element of size 8 x 8.
Your program is equivalent to a full image dilation with the structure element of ones(8) (btw, you didn't use the input argument [0 0 7 7], and you don't need that indeed):
I = [92 99 1 8 15 67 74 51 58 40
98 80 7 14 16 73 55 57 64 41
4 81 88 20 22 54 56 63 70 47
85 87 19 21 3 60 62 69 71 28
86 93 25 2 9 61 68 75 52 34
17 24 76 83 90 42 49 26 33 65
23 5 82 89 91 48 30 32 39 66
79 6 13 95 97 29 31 38 45 72
10 12 94 96 78 35 37 44 46 53
11 18 100 77 84 36 43 50 27 59];
Max_image = max_filter(I, [0 0 7 7]) will give you:
99 99 97 97 97 75 75 75 72 72
98 97 97 97 97 75 75 75 72 72
100 100 100 97 97 75 75 75 72 72
100 100 100 97 97 75 75 75 72 72
100 100 100 97 97 75 75 75 72 72
100 100 100 97 97 72 72 72 72 72
100 100 100 97 97 72 72 72 72 72
100 100 100 97 97 72 72 72 72 72
100 100 100 96 84 59 59 59 59 59
100 100 100 84 84 59 59 59 59 59
When you are using:
J1=imdilate(I,ones(8),'full');
J1(8:end,8:end)
It will give you exactly the same answer.
That's why I told you yesterday that it is often to use a binary image mask as the structure element. You don't need to choose the value inside the mask, but you need to choose the size (8*8) and shape. What is a shape? In a binary image, the elements that are filled with 1 determines the shape. Here in your code you selected the largest value within the 8*8 region, that is equivalent to the image dilation with a whole bright 8*8 square shaped mask.

How can I retrieve the coordinate from excel and plot the points according to the map? - MATLAB

I'm currently working on map routing system for pedestrian pathway and not sure does anyone did this before. But I have collected various way-points coordinates of the path using google earth.

My Code
M = xlsread('YCKMap.xlsx');
figure(),plot(M(:,2), M(:,3));
RESULT
http://i.stack.imgur.com/0dncY.jpg
What I want:
Is it possible to join these points together
(55 115 56) (49 116 65) (37 117 76) (30 118 80)
As shown in the image above?
I have figure out the answer for my question and would like to benefit the community for what I have come out with. According #Dan code plot(M(:,2), M(:,3); can plot the points out but the orientation of the graph is way off. Therefore I use waypoints function to make it better.
Anyway, organize your excel data by leaving a cell gap when you want to insert a new line.
I have paste the excel data for you to get a clearer picture.
Coding
M = xlsread('excel.xlsx');
waypoints =[M(:,2), M(:,3)];
[lttrk,lntrk] = track('rh',waypoints,'degrees');
figure(),geoshow(lttrk,lntrk,'DisplayType','line', 'color','r');

If you want to plot points in Matlab in a different order from that which they appear in your matrix, append a column vector at the beginning of the matrix that is a vector of the order the point should appear in. Then use the sortrows function of matlab to rearrange the matrix. It will now be in the correct order for plotting. For example:
M = [0 4 2; 1 17 5]';
plot(M);
Now suppose you knew that the correct plot order was (0,1) then (2,5) then (4,17). Compared to the input matrix, M, the correct plot order can be specified by order = [1 3 2]'
So to plot in the correct order:
M = [order'; M'];
M = sortrows(M);
plot(M(:,2), M(:,3);
Which means as long as you know the correct plot order, you can now use this method to get the correct plot.
So in your example you want those points to be plotted in this order (55 115 56) (49 116 65) (37 117 76) (30 118 80). Lets assume you want them to start at 55 as this is the first point in your new order, currently M looks like this: M = [...;30 118 80;...;37 117 76;...;49 116 65;...;55 115 56;...] but you want it to look like this: M = [...; 55 115 56; 56 116 65; 57 117 76; 58 118 80;...]. The problem is that you can't just change the values like this M(M(:,1) == 30,1) = 58 because then you will land up with 2 points indexed at 58. So first you need to add 1 too all the indices that are 58 or higher, so M(M(:,1) >= 58) = M(M(:,1) >= 58) + 1 and then finally M(M(:,1) == 30,1) = 58. So to generalise the changing of a point:
M(M(:,1) >= newIndex) = M(M(:,1) >= newIndex) + 1;
M(M(:,1) == oldIndex,1) = newIndex;
If there is some logic that define how you change the points, then you can write this into a loop. If not and it is just those 4 points, then just run this manually in the command line.
