For example, if
A = [7,8,1,1,2,2,2]; % the bins (or subscripts)
B = [2,1,1,1,1,1,2]; % the array
then the desired function "binsum" has two outputs, one is the bins, and the other is the sum. It is just adding values in B according to subscripts in A. For example, for 2, the sum is 1 + 1 + 2 = 4, for 1 it is 1 + 1 = 2.
[bins, sums] = binsum(A,B);
bins = [1,2,7,8]
sums = [2,4,2,1]
The elements in "bins" need not be ordered but must correspond to elements in "sums". This can surely be done by "for" iterations, but "for" iteration is not desired, because there is a performance concern. It is best if there is a build in function for this.
Thanks a lot!
This is another job for accumarray
A = [7,8,1,1,2,2,2]; % the bins (or subscripts)
B = [2,1,1,1,1,1,2]; % the array
sums = accumarray(A.', B.').';
bins = unique(A);
Results:
>> bins
bins =
1 2 7 8
sums =
2 4 0 0 0 0 2 1
The index in sums corresponds to the bin value, so sums(2) = 4. You can use nonzeros to remove the unused bins so that bins(n) corresponds to sums(n)
sums = nonzeros(sums).';
sums =
2 4 2 1
or, to generate this form of sums in one line:
sums = nonzeros(accumarray(A.', B.')).';
Another possibility is to use sparse and then find.
Assuming A contains positive integers,
[bins, ~, sums] = find(sparse(A, 1, B));
This works because sparse automatically adds values (third input) for matching positions (as defined by the first two inputs).
If A can contain arbitrary values, you also need a call to unique, and find can be replaced by nonzeros:
[bins, ~, labels]= unique(A);
sums = nonzeros(sparse(labels, 1, B));
Here is a solution using sort and cumsum:
[s,I]=sort(A);
c=cumsum(B(I));
k= [s(1:end-1)~=s(2:end) true];
sums = diff([0 c(k)])
bins = s(k)

I have a vector T of length n and m other vectors of the same length with 0 or 1 used as condition to select elements of T. The condition vectors are combined into a matrix I of size n x m.
Is there a one liner to extract a matrix M of values from Tsuch that the i-th column of M are those elements in T that are selected by the condition elements of the i-th column in I?
Example:
T = (1:10)'
I = mod(T,2) == 0
T(I)'
yields
2 4 6 8 10
However
I = mod(T,2:4) == 0
T(I)'
yields an error in the last statement. I see that the columns might select a different number of elements which results in vectors of different lengths (as in the example). However, even this example doesn't work:
I = zeros(10,2)
I(:,1) = mod(T,2)==0
I(:,2) = mod(T,2)==1
Is there any way to achieve the solution in a one liner?
The easiest way I can think of to do something like this is to take advantage of the element-wise multiplication operator .* with your matrix I. Take this as an example:
% these lines are just setup of your problem
m = 10;
n = 10;
T = [1:m]';
I = randi([0 1], m, n);
% 1 liner to create M
M = repmat(T, 1, n) .* I;
What this does is expand T to be the same size as I using repmat and then multiplies all the elements together using .*.
Here is a one linear solution
mat2cell(T(nonzeros(bsxfun(#times,I,(1:numel(T)).'))),sum(I))
First logical index should be converted to numeric index for it we multiply T by each column of I
idx = bsxfun(#times,I,(1:numel(T)).');
But that index contain zeros we should extract those values that correspond to 1s in matrix I:
idx = nonzeros(idx);
Then we extract repeated elements of T :
T2 = T(idx);
so we need to split T2 to 3 parts size of each part is equal to sum of elements of corresponding column of I and mat2cell is very helpful
result = mat2cell(T2,sum(I));

}
One line solution using cellfun and mat2cell
nColumns = size(I,2); nRows = size(T,1); % Take the liberty of a line to write cleaner code
cellfun(#(i)T(i),mat2cell(I,nRows,ones(nColumns,1)),'uni',0)
What is going on:
#(i)T(i) % defines a function handle that takes a logical index and returns elements from T for those indexes
mat2cell(I,nRows,ones(nColumns,1)) % Split I such that every column is a cell
'uni',0 % Tell cellfun that the function returns non uniform output
I am working with a n x 1 matrix, A, that has repeating values inside it:
A = [0;1;2;3;4; 0;1;2;3;4; 0;1;2;3;4; 0;1;2;3;4]
which correspond to an n x 1 matrix of B values:
B = [2;4;6;8;10; 3;5;7;9;11; 4;6;8;10;12; 5;7;9;11;13]
I am attempting to produce a generalised code to place each repetition into a separate column and store it into Aa and Bb, e.g.:
Aa = [0 0 0 0 Bb = [2 3 4 5
1 1 1 1 4 5 6 7
2 2 2 2 6 7 8 9
3 3 3 3 8 9 10 11
4 4 4 4] 10 11 12 13]
Essentially, each repetition from A and B needs to be copied into the next column and then deleted from the first column
So far I have managed to identify how many repetitions there are and copy the entire column over to the next column and then the next for the amount of repetitions there are but my method doesn't shift the matrix rows to columns as such.
clc;clf;close all
A = [0;1;2;3;4;0;1;2;3;4;0;1;2;3;4;0;1;2;3;4];
B = [2;4;6;8;10;3;5;7;9;11;4;6;8;10;12;5;7;9;11;13];
desiredCol = 1; %next column to go to
destinationCol = 0; %column to start on
n = length(A);
for i = 2:1:n-1
if A == 0;
A = [ A(:, 1:destinationCol)...
A(:, desiredCol+1:destinationCol)...
A(:, desiredCol)...
A(:, destinationCol+1:end) ];
end
end

Any hints would be much appreciated. If you need further explanation, let me know!
Thanks!
Given our discussion in the comments, all you need is to use reshape which converts a matrix of known dimensions into an output matrix with specified dimensions provided that the number of elements match. You wish to transform a vector which has a set amount of repeating patterns into a matrix where each column has one of these repeating instances. reshape creates a matrix in column-major order where values are sampled column-wise and the matrix is populated this way. This is perfect for your situation.
Assuming that you already know how many "repeats" you're expecting, we call this An, you simply need to reshape your vector so that it has T = n / An rows where n is the length of the vector. Something like this will work.
n = numel(A); T = n / An;
Aa = reshape(A, T, []);
Bb = reshape(B, T, []);
The third parameter has empty braces and this tells MATLAB to infer how many columns there will be given that there are T rows. Technically, this would simply be An columns but it's nice to show you how flexible MATLAB can be.
If you say you already know the repeated subvector, and the number of times it repeats then it is relatively straight forward:
First make your new A matrix with the repmat function.
Then remap your B vector to the same size as you new A matrix
% Given that you already have the repeated subvector Asub, and the number
% of times it repeats; An:
Asub = [0;1;2;3;4];
An = 4;
lengthAsub = length(Asub);
Anew = repmat(Asub, [1,An]);
% If you can assume that the number of elements in B is equal to the number
% of elements in A:
numberColumns = size(Anew, 2);
newB = zeros(size(Anew));
for i = 1:numberColumns
indexStart = (i-1) * lengthAsub + 1;
indexEnd = indexStart + An;
newB(:,i) = B(indexStart:indexEnd);
end
If you don't know what is in your original A vector, but you do know it is repetitive, if you assume that the pattern has no repeats you can use the find function to find when the first element is repeated:
lengthAsub = find(A(2:end) == A(1), 1);
Asub = A(1:lengthAsub);
An = length(A) / lengthAsub
Hopefully this fits in with your data: the only reason it would not is if your subvector within A is a pattern which does not have unique numbers, such as:
A = [0;1;2;3;2;1;0; 0;1;2;3;2;1;0; 0;1;2;3;2;1;0; 0;1;2;3;2;1;0;]
It is worth noting that from the above intuitively you would have lengthAsub = find(A(2:end) == A(1), 1) - 1;, But this is not necessary because you are already effectively taking the one off by only looking in the matrix A(2:end).
I have a matrix with constant consecutive values randomly distributed throughout the matrix. I want the indices of the consecutive values, and further, I want a matrix of the same size as the original matrix, where the number of consecutive values are stored in the indices of the consecutive values. For Example
original_matrix = [1 1 1;2 2 3; 1 2 3];
output_matrix = [3 3 3;2 2 0;0 0 0];
I have struggled mightily to find a solution to this problem. It has relevance for meteorological data quality control. For example, if I have a matrix of temperature data from a number of sensors, and I want to know what days had constant consecutive values, and how many days were constant, so I can then flag the data as possibly faulty.
temperature matrix is number of days x number of stations and I want an output matrix that is also number of days x number of stations, where the consecutive values are flagged as described above.
If you have a solution to that, please provide! Thank you.
For this kind of problems, I made my own utility function runlength:
function RL = runlength(M)
% calculates length of runs of consecutive equal items along columns of M
% work along columns, so that you can use linear indexing
% find locations where items change along column
jumps = diff(M) ~= 0;
% add implicit jumps at start and end
ncol = size(jumps, 2);
jumps = [true(1, ncol); jumps; true(1, ncol)];
% find linear indices of starts and stops of runs
ijump = find(jumps);
nrow = size(jumps, 1);
istart = ijump(rem(ijump, nrow) ~= 0); % remove fake starts in last row
istop = ijump(rem(ijump, nrow) ~= 1); % remove fake stops in first row
rl = istop - istart;
assert(sum(rl) == numel(M))
% make matrix of 'derivative' of runlength
% don't need last row, but needs same size as jumps for indices to be valid
dRL = zeros(size(jumps));
dRL(istart) = rl;
dRL(istop) = dRL(istop) - rl;
% remove last row and 'integrate' to get runlength
RL = cumsum(dRL(1:end-1,:));
It only works along columns since it uses linear indexing. Since you want do something similar along rows, you need to transpose back and forth, so you could use it for your case like so:
>> original = [1 1 1;2 2 3; 1 2 3];
>> original = original.'; % transpose, since runlength works along columns
>> output = runlength(original);
>> output = output.'; % transpose back
>> output(output == 1) = 0; % see hitzg's comment
>> output
output =
3 3 3
2 2 0
0 0 0
I have a vector whose elements identify the indices (per column) that I need to set in a different matrix. Specifically, I have:
A = 7
1
2
and I need to create a matrix B with some number of rows of zeros, except for the elements identified by A. In other words, I want B:
B = zeros(10, 3); % number of rows is known; num columns = size(A)
B(A(1), 1) = 1
B(A(2), 2) = 1
B(A(3), 3) = 1
I would like to do this without having to write a loop.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Use linear indexing:
B = zeros(10, 3);
B(A(:).'+ (0:numel(A)-1)*size(B,1)) = 1;
The second line can be written equivalently with sub2ind (may be a little slower):
B(sub2ind(size(B), A(:).', 1:numel(A))) = 1;
Suppose now I have two vectors of same length:
A = [1 2 2 1];
B = [2 1 2 2];
I would like to create a matrix C whose dim=m*n, m=max(A), n=max(B).
C = zeros(m,n);
for i = 1:length(A)
u = A(i);
v = B(i);
C(u,v)=C(u,v)+1;
end
and get
C =[0 2;
1 1]
More precisely, we treat the according indices in A and B as rows and columns in C, and C(u,v) is the number of elements in {k | A(i)=u and B(i)=v, i = 1,2,...,length(A)}
Is there a faster way to do that?
Yes. Use sparse. It assembles (i.e., sums up) the matrix values for repeating row-column pairs for you. You need an additional vector with the values that will be assembled into the matrix entries. If you use ones(size(A)), you will have exactly what you need - counting of repeated row-column pairs
spA=sparse(A, B, ones(size(A)));
full(spA)
ans =
0 2
1 1
The same can be obtained by simply passing scalar 1 to sparse function instead of a vector of values.
For matrices that have a large number of zero entries this is absolutely crucial that you use sparse storage. Another function you could use is accumarray. It can essentially do the same thing, but also works on dense matrix structure:
AA=accumarray([A;B]', 1);
AA =
0 2
1 1
You can pass size argument to accumarray if you want to create a matrix of specific size
AA=accumarray([A;B]', 1, [2 3]);
AA =
0 2 0
1 1 0
Note that you can actually also make it produce sparse matrices, and use a different operator in assembly (i.e., not necessarily a sum)
AA=accumarray([A;B]', 1, [2 3], #sum, 0, true)
will produce a sparse matrix (last parameter set to true) using sum for assembly and 0 as a fill value, i.e. a value which is used in cases a given row-column pair does not exist in A/B.
