I have a m * n * k Matrix called M which I want to index to get the mean of some Data.
I have a logical m * n matrix called EZG and want to apply this on every of the k-th dimension from 1:(end-1) (call this vector V).
Any chance to write it without a loop like this:
M=rand(3,3,3)
EZG=logical([1,1,1;0,1,0;0,0,1])
V=1:size(M,3)-1
mean(mean(M(EZG,V)1),2)
Result should be a onedimensional vector of the length of V.
Thank you
I think this is what you want:
M=rand(3,3,3);
EZG=logical([1,1,1;0,1,0;0,0,1]);
% repeat EZG K-1 times, and add zeros to the Kth slice
V=cat(3,repmat(EZG,1,1,size(M,3)-1),false(size(M,1),size(M,2)));
% logical index and mean
m=mean(M(V));

I want to create a matrix in large dimensions that the components themselves are a matrix.
Like the following example
each of the W, V, U is 18*18 matrix and the other components are zero. What is the easiest way to create such a matrix in MATLAB?
Assuming that you want a matrix that contains n x n blocks so its dimensions will be (18 * n) x (18 * n):
n=10;
z=ones(n,1);
result = kron(spdiags(z,-1,n,n),V)+kron(spdiags(z,0,n,n),U)+kron(spdiags(z,1,n,n),W);
I'd like to create a function that adds several gaussian terms of various width over some specified region:
G(a,b,x) = a_1 exp(- b_1 x^2) + a_2 exp(- b_2 x^2) + ... a_N exp(-b_N x^2)
I'd like this function to output an array of length x, summing over the terms of parameters a,b provided, something like:
x = linspace(-2,2,1000);
N_gauss = #(a,b) a(:).*exp(-b(:)*x.^2);
This example actually works if a,b have only a single value, but when they become vectors it no longer works (I suppose Matlab doesn't know what should be added, multiplied or remain a vector). Is this even possible?
You can do this purely by matrix multiplication. Let's tackle the problem slowly and work our way up. You first need to form products of the elements of the vector b and scalar values stored in x. First create a 2D matrix of values where each row corresponds to the product-wise values between an element in b and an element in x. The element (i,j) in this matrix corresponds to the product of the ith element in x with the jth element in b.
You can achieve this by using the outer product. Make x a column vector and b a row vector, then perform the multiplication. Also, make sure you square each of the x terms as seen in your equation.
term1 = (x(:).^2)*b(:).';
Now you can apply the exponential operator and ensure you place a negative in the exponent so you can build the right side of each term (i.e. exp(- b_i x^2)):
term2 = exp(-term1);
The last thing you need to do is multiply each of the values in the 2D matrix with the right coefficient from the a vector. You can do this by enforcing that a be a column vector and performing matrix-vector multiplication.
out = term2*a(:);
Matrix-vector multiplication is the dot product between the column vector a with each row in the 2D matrix we created before. This exactly corresponds to the summation of your equation for each value in x. As such, this achieves the Gaussian summation for each value in x and places this into a n x 1 vector where n is the total number of elements in x. Putting this all together gives us:
out = exp(-(x(:).^2)*b(:).')*a(:);
To finally abstract this into an anonymous function, do:
N_gauss = #(a,b,x) exp(-(x(:).^2)*b(:).')*a(:);
This function takes in the vectors a, b and x as per your problem.
Let v be a row vector (1 x n matrix) and M be a n x m matrix.
I use the following piece of code to create a "weighted vector" (I hope the comments explain what it's supposed to be doing):
weighted_M = bsxfun(#times,v',M);
%creates a matrix with the i-th row of M being weighted (multiplied) by the i-th element of v
weighted_v = sum(weighted_M);
%sums the columns of weighted_M
Now the actual question: I have to do the same calculation for a lot of input vectors v. So instead I would like to input a matrix V that contains the vectors v as rows and output a matrix that contains the weighted vectors as rows. Is there any way to do this without using for loops?
If V is of size [k,n] and M is of size [n,m], and you're looking for the k weighted vectors, then you might simply need
weighted_vs = V*M;
an element of which is equal to
weighted_vs_ij = (V*M)ij = sum_l V_il * M_lj
First you multiply each row of M with a corresponding element of V (V_il * M_lj above for a fix i), then sum up as a function of the first index.
The result are the k weighted row vectors, each of length m.
I have a vector created from linspace between specific numbers and have dimensions of 1*150. Now i want to multiply each element of the above created vector with another vector whose dimension is 1*25. The detail of my code is given below
c_p = linspace(1,.3*pi,150);
c = c_p';
C = zeros([150,25]);
for i= 1:1:size(C,1)
wp= c(i);
for n= 1:25
c_wp(n) = cos(n*wp);
end
C(i,25)= c_wp;
end
The vector is actually a multiple of cosine of length 25 and here wp is the elements of first vector of dimension 1*150. SO by the logic, I must have an output of 150*25 but instead giving me "subscripted assignment dimension mismatch". Any help would be appreciated, as i am new to matlab.
To multiply each element of a row vector a with each element of another row vector b, we can use linear algebra. We transpose a to make it a column vector and then use matrix multiplication:
a.' * b
That way you don't even need a for loop.
I have a M x N matrix. I want to multiply each of the N columns by a M x M matrix. The following does this in a loop, but I have no idea how to vectorize it.
u=repmat(sin(2*pi*f*t),[n 1]);
W = rand(n);
answer = size(u);
for i=1:size(u,2)
answer(:,i) = W*u(:,i);
end
You simply need to multiply the two matrices:
answer = W*u;
Think about it: in every iteration of your loop you multiply a matrix by a vector. The result of that operation is a vector, which you save into your answer in column i. Matrix multiplication is a similar thing: you can understand it as multiplication of a matrix (W) by a set of vectors, which form your matrix u.
So your code is good, just remove the loop :)
