Create a submatrix using random columns and loop - matlab

I have a 102-by-102 matrix. I want to select square sub-matrices of orders from 2 up to 8 using random column numbers. Here is what I have done so far.
matt is the the original matrix of size 102-by-102.
ittr = 30
cols = 3;
for i = 1:ittr
rr = randi([2,102], cols,1);
mattsub = matt([rr(1) rr(2) rr(3)], [rr(1) rr(2) rr(3)]);
end
I have to extract matrices of different orders from 2 to 8. Using the above code I would have to change the mattsub line every time I change cols. I believe it is possible to do with another loop inside but cannot figure out how. How can I do this?

There is no need to extract elements of a vector and concatenate them, just use the vector to index a matrix.
Instead of :
mattsub = matt([rr(1) rr(2) rr(3)], [rr(1) rr(2) rr(3)]);
Use this:
mattsub = matt(rr, rr);

Defining a set of random sizes is pretty easy using the randi function. Once this is done, they can be projected along your iterations number N using arrayfun. Within the iterations, the randperm and sort functions can be used in order to build the random indexers to the original matrix M.
Here is the full code:
% Define the starting parameters...
M = rand(102);
N = 30;
% Retrieve the matrix rows and columns...
M_rows = size(M,1);
M_cols = size(M,2);
% Create a vector of random sizes between 2 and 8...
sizes = randi(7,N,1) + 1;
% Generate the random submatrices and insert them into a vector of cells...
subs = arrayfun(#(x)M(sort(randperm(M_rows,x)),sort(randperm(M_cols,x))),sizes,'UniformOutput',false);
This can work on any type of matrix, even non-squared ones.

You don't need another loop, one is enough. If you use randi to get a random integer as size of your submatrix, and then use those to get random column and row indices you can easily get a random submatrix. Do note that the ouput is a cell, as the submatrices won't all be of the same size.
N=102; % Or substitute with some size function
matt = rand(N); % Initial matrix, use your own
itr = 30; % Number of iterations
mattsub = cell(itr,1); % Cell for non-uniform output
for ii = 1:itr
X = randi(7)+1; % Get random integer between 2 and 7
colr = randi(N-X); % Random column
rowr = randi(N-X); % random row
mattsub{ii} = matt(rowr:(rowr+X-1),colr:(colr+X-1));
end

Columnwise removal of first ones from binary matrix. MATLAB

I have some binary matrix. I want to remove all first ones from each column, but keep one if this value is alone in column. I have some code, which produces correct result, but it looks ugly- I should iterate through all columns.
Could You give me a piece of advice how to improve my code?
Non-vectorised code:
% Dummy matrix for SE
M = 10^3;
N = 10^2;
ExampleMatrix = (rand(M,N)>0.9);
ExampleMatrix1=ExampleMatrix;
% Iterate columns
for iColumn = 1:size(ExampleMatrix,2)
idx = find(ExampleMatrix(:,iColumn)); % all nonzeroes elements
if numel(idx) > 1
% remove all ones except first
ExampleMatrix(idx(1),iColumn) = 0;
end
end
I think this does what you want:
ind_col = find(sum(ExampleMatrix, 1)>1); % index of relevant columns
[~, ind_row] = max(ExampleMatrix(:,ind_col), [], 1); % index of first max of each column
ExampleMatrix(ind_row + (ind_col-1)*size(ExampleMatrix,1)) = 0; % linear indexing
The code uses:
the fact that the second output of max gives the index of the first maximum value. In this case max is applied along the first dimension, to find the first maximum of each column;
linear indexing.

Generate a random sparse matrix with N non-zero-elements

I've written a function that generates a sparse matrix of size nxd
and puts in each column 2 non-zero values.
function [M] = generateSparse(n,d)
M = sparse(d,n);
sz = size(M);
nnzs = 2;
val = ceil(rand(nnzs,n));
inds = zeros(nnzs,d);
for i=1:n
ind = randperm(d,nnzs);
inds(:,i) = ind;
end
points = (1:n);
nnzInds = zeros(nnzs,d);
for i=1:nnzs
nnzInd = sub2ind(sz, inds(i,:), points);
nnzInds(i,:) = nnzInd;
end
M(nnzInds) = val;
end
However, I'd like to be able to give the function another parameter num-nnz which will make it choose randomly num-nnz cells and put there 1.
I can't use sprand as it requires density and I need the number of non-zero entries to be in-dependable from the matrix size. And giving a density is basically dependable of the matrix size.
I am a bit confused on how to pick the indices and fill them... I did with a loop which is extremely costly and would appreciate help.
EDIT:
Everything has to be sparse. A big enough matrix will crash in memory if I don't do it in a sparse way.
You seem close!
You could pick num_nnz random (unique) integers between 1 and the number of elements in the matrix, then assign the value 1 to the indices in those elements.
To pick the random unique integers, use randperm. To get the number of elements in the matrix use numel.
M = sparse(d, n); % create dxn sparse matrix
num_nnz = 10; % number of non-zero elements
idx = randperm(numel(M), num_nnz); % get unique random indices
M(idx) = 1; % Assign 1 to those indices

how to check the values of each variables from a resultant matrix in matlab?

I have sum of 3 cell arrays
A=72x1
B=72x720
C=72x90
resultant=A+B+C
size of resultant=72x64800
now when I find the minimum value with row and column indices I can locate the row element easily but how can I locate the column element in variables?
for example
after dong calculations for A,B,C I added them all and got a resultant in from of <72x(720x90)> or can say a matrix of integers of size <72x64800> then I found the minimum value of resultant with row and column index using the code below.
[minimumValue,ind]=min(resultant(:));
[row,col]=find(result== minimumValue);
then row got 14 and column got 6840 value..
now I can trace row 14 of all A,B,C variables easily but how can I know that the resultant column 6480 belongs to which combination of A,B,C?
Instead of using find, use the ind output from the min function. This is the linear index for minimumValue. To do that you can use ind2sub:
[r,c] = ind2sub(size(resultant),ind);
It is not quite clear what do you mean by resultant = A+B+C since you clearly don't sum them if you get a bigger array (72x64800), on the other hand, this is not a simple concatenation ([A B C]) since this would result in a 72x811 array.
However, assuming this is a concatenation you can do the following:
% get the 2nd dimension size of all matrices:
cols = cellfun(#(x) size(x,2),{A,B,C})
% create a vector with reapiting matrices names for all their columns:
mats = repelem(['A' 'B' 'C'],cols);
% get the relevant matrix for the c column:
mats(c)
so mats(c) will be the matrix with the minimum value.
EDIT:
From your comment I understand that your code looks something like this:
% arbitrary data:
A = rand(72,1);
B = rand(72,720);
C = rand(72,90);
% initializing:
K = size(B,2);
N = size(C,2);
counter = 1;
resultant = zeros(72,K*N);
% summing:
for k = 1:K
for n = 1:N
resultant(:,counter) = A + B(:,k) + C(:,n);
counter = counter+1;
end
end
% finding the minimum value:
[minimumValue,ind] = min(resultant(:))
and from the start of the answer you know that you can do this:
[r,c] = ind2sub(size(resultant),ind)
to get the row and column of minimumValue in resultant. So, in the same way you can do:
[Ccol,Bcol] = ind2sub([N,K],c)
where Bcol and Ccol is the column in B and C, respectively, so that:
minimumValue == A(r) + B(r,Bcol) + C(r,Ccol)
To see how it's working imagine that the loop above fills a matrix M with the value of counter, and M has a size of N-by-K. Because we fill M with a linear index, it will be filled in a column-major way, so the row will correspond to the n iterator, and the column will correspond to the k iterator. Now c corresponds to the counter where we got the minimum value, and the row and column of counter in M tells us the columns in B and C, so we can use ind2sub again to get the subscripts of the position of counter. Off course, we don't really need to create M, because the values within it are just the linear indices themselves.

Delete rows in a vector starting from a specific index Matlab

I have an nx1 vector in Matlab. I want to delete rows starting from a specific index. For example, if n is 100 and the index is 60 then all rows from 60 till 100 will be removed. I've found this REMOVEROWS but I don't know how to make it do this.
The removerows function is probably overkill for a vector, but here is how it can be used along with the usual linear indexing method:
n = 100;
index = 60;
a = rand(n,1); % An n-by-1 column vector
b1 = a(1:index-1)
b2 = removerows(a,'ind',index:n) % Or removerows(a,'ind',index:size(a,1))
Note that the removerows function is in the Neural Network toolbox and thus not part of core Matlab.
This should the trick:
your_vector(index:end) = [];
If you want to remove from the end that you can do:
your_vector(end-index+1:end) = [];

Sum every n rows of matrix

Is there any way that I can sum up columns values for each group of three rows in a matrix?
I can sum three rows up in a manual way.
For example
% matrix is the one I wanna store the new data.
% data is the original dataset.
matrix(1,1:end) = sum(data(1:3, 1:end))
matrix(2,1:end) = sum(data(4:6, 1:end))
...
But if the dataset is huge, this wouldn't work.
Is there any way to do this automatically without loops?
Here are four other ways:
The obligatory for-loop:
% for-loop over each three rows
matrix = zeros(size(data,1)/3, size(data,2));
counter = 1;
for i=1:3:size(data,1)
matrix(counter,:) = sum(data(i:i+3-1,:));
counter = counter + 1;
end
Using mat2cell for tiling:
% divide each three rows into a cell
matrix = mat2cell(data, ones(1,size(data,1)/3)*3);
% compute the sum of rows in each cell
matrix = cell2mat(cellfun(#sum, matrix, 'UniformOutput',false));
Using third dimension (based on this):
% put each three row into a separate 3rd dimension slice
matrix = permute(reshape(data', [], 3, size(data,1)/3), [2 1 3]);
% sum rows, and put back together
matrix = permute(sum(matrix), [3 2 1]);
Using accumarray:
% build array of group indices [1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,3,...]
idx = floor(((1:size(data,1))' - 1)/3) + 1;
% use it to accumulate rows (appliead to each column separately)
matrix = cell2mat(arrayfun(#(i)accumarray(idx,data(:,i)), 1:size(data,2), ...
'UniformOutput',false));
Of course all the solution so far assume that the number of rows is evenly divisble by 3.
This one-liner reshapes so that all the values needed for a particular cell are in a column, does the sum, and then reshapes the back to the expected shape.
reshape(sum(reshape(data, 3, [])), [], size(data, 2))
The naked 3 could be changed if you want to sum a different number of rows together. It's on you to make sure the number of rows in each group divides evenly.
Slice the matrix into three pieces and add them together:
matrix = data(1:3:end, :) + data(2:3:end, :) + data(3:3:end, :);
This will give an error if size(data,1) is not a multiple of three, since the three pieces wouldn't be the same size. If appropriate to your data, you might work around that by truncating data, or appending some zeros to the end.
You could also do something fancy with reshape and 3D arrays. But I would prefer the above (unless you need to replace 3 with a variable...)
Prashant answered nicely before but I would have a simple amendment:
fl = filterLength;
A = yourVector (where mod(A,fl)==0)
sum(reshape(A,fl,[]),1).'/fl;
There is the ",1" that makes the line run even when fl==1 (original values).
I discovered this while running it in a for loop like so:
... read A ...
% Plot data
hold on;
averageFactors = [1 3 10 30 100 300 1000];
colors = hsv(length(averageFactors));
clear legendTxt;
for i=1:length(averageFactors)
% ------ FILTERING ----------
clear Atrunc;
clear ttrunc;
clear B;
fl = averageFactors(i); % filter length
Atrunc = A(1:L-mod(L,fl),:);
ttrunc = t(1:L-mod(L,fl),:);
B = sum(reshape(Atrunc,fl,[]),1).'/fl;
tB = sum(reshape(ttrunc,fl,[]),1).'/fl;
length(B)
plot(tB,B,'color',colors(i,:) )
%kbhit ()
endfor
