I'm trying to implement this integral representation of Bessel function of the first kind of order n.
here is what I tried:
t = -pi:0.1:pi;
n = 1;
x = 0:5:20;
A(t) = exp(sqrt(-1)*(n*t-x*sin(t)));
B(t) = integral(A(t),-pi,pi);
plot(A(t),x)
the plot i'm trying to get is as shown in the wikipedia page.
it said:
Error using * Inner matrix dimensions must agree.
Error in besselfn (line 8) A(t) = exp(sqrt(-1)*(n*t-x*sin(t)));
so i tried putting x-5;
and the output was:
Subscript indices must either be real positive integers or logicals.
Error in besselfn (line 8) A(t) = exp(sqrt(-1)*(n*t-x*sin(t)));
How to get this correct? what am I missing?
To present an anonymous function in MATLAB you can use (NOT A(t)=...)
A = #(t) exp(sqrt(-1)*(n*t-x.*sin(t)));
with element-by-element operations (here I used .*).
Additional comments:
You can use 1i instead of sqrt(-1).
B(t) cannot be the function of the t argument, because t is the internal variable for integration.
There are two independent variables in plot(A(t),x). Thus you can display plot just if t and x have the same size. May be you meant something like this plot(x,A(x)) to display the function A(x) or plot(A(x),x) to display the inverse function of A(x).
Finally you code can be like this:
n = 1;
x = 0:.1:20;
A = #(x,t) exp(sqrt(-1)*(n*t-x.*sin(t)));
B = #(x) integral(#(t) A(x,t),-pi,pi);
for n_x=1:length(x)
B_x(n_x) = B(x(n_x));
end
plot(x,real(B_x))

need to find a set of optimal parameters P of the system y = P(1)*exp(-P(2)*x) - P(3)*x where x and y are experimental values. I defined my function
f = #(P) P(1)*exp(-P(2)*x) - P(3)*x
and
guess = [1, 1, 1]
and tried
P = fminsearch(f,guess)
according to Help. I get an error
Subscripted assignment dimension mismatch.
Error in fminsearch (line 191)
fv(:,1) = funfcn(x,varargin{:});
I don't quite understand where my y values would fall in, as well as where the function takes P from. I unfortunately have no access to nlinfit or optimization toolboxes.
You should try the matlab function lsqnonlin(#testfun,[1;1;1])
But first make a function and save in an m-file that includes all the data points, lets say your y is A and x is x like here below:
function F = testfun(P)
A = [1;2;3;7;30;100];
x = [1;2;3;4;5;6];
F = A-P(1)*exp(-P(2)*x) - P(3)*x;
This minimized the 2-norm end gives you the best parameters.
Im new to MATLAB. Want to use integral2 as follows
function num = numer(x)
fun=#(p,w) prod((p+1-p).*(1-w).*exp(w.*x.*x/2))
num= integral2(fun ,0,1,0,1)
end
I get several errors starting with
Error using .*
Matrix dimensions must agree.
Error in numer>#(p,w)prod(p+(1-w).*exp(w.*x.*x/2)) (line 5)
fun=#(p,w) prod(p+(1-w).*exp(w.*x.*x/2))
Can you please tell me what I do wrong.
Thanks
From the help for integral2:
All input functions must accept arrays as input and operate
elementwise. The function Z = FUN(X,Y) must accept arrays X and Y of
the same size and return an array of corresponding values.
When x was non-scalar, your function fun did not do this. By wrapping everything in prod, the function always returned a scalar. Assuming that your prod is in the right place to begin with and taking advantage of the properties of the exponential, I believe this version will do what you need for vector x:
x = [0 1];
lx = length(x);
fun = #(p,w)(p+1-p).^lx.*(1-w).^lx.*exp(w).^sum(x.*x/2);
num = integral2(fun,0,1,0,1)
Alternatively, fun = #(p,w)(p+1-p).^lx.*(1-w).^lx.*exp(sum(x.*x/2)).^w; could be used.
i have some experimental data and a theoretical model which i would like to try and fit. i have made a function file with the model - the code is shown below
function [ Q,P ] = RodFit(k,C )
% Function file for the theoretical scattering from a Rod
% R = radius, L = length
R = 10; % radius in Å
L = 1000; % length in Å
Q = 0.001:0.0001:0.5;
fun = #(x) ( (2.*besselj(1,Q.*R.*sin(x)))./...
(Q.*R.*sin(x)).*...
(sin(Q.*L.*cos(x)./2))./...
(Q.*L.*cos(x)./2)...
).^2.*sin(x);
P = (integral(fun,0,pi/2,'ArrayValued',true))*k+C;
end
with Q being the x-values and P being the y-values. I can call the function fine from the matlab command line and it works fine e.g. [Q,P] = RodFit(1,0.001) gives me a result i can plot using plot(Q,P)
But i cannot figure how to best find the fit to some experimental data. Ideally, i would like to use the optimization toolbox and lsqcurvefit since i would then also be able to optimize the R and L parameters. but i do not know how to pass (x,y) data to lsqcurvefit. i have attempted it with the code below but it does not work
File = 30; % the specific observation you want to fit the model to
ydata = DataFiles{1,File}.data(:,2)';
% RAdius = linspace(10,1000,length(ydata));
% LEngth = linspace(100,10000,length(ydata));
Multiplier = linspace(1e-3,1e3,length(ydata));
Constant = linspace(0,1,length(ydata));
xdata = [Multiplier; Constant]; % RAdius; LEngth;
L = lsqcurvefit(#RodFit,[1;0],xdata,ydata);
it gives me the error message:
Error using *
Inner matrix dimensions must agree.
Error in RodFit (line 15)
P = (integral(fun,0,pi/2,'ArrayValued',true))*k+C;
Error in lsqcurvefit (line 199)
initVals.F = feval(funfcn_x_xdata{3},xCurrent,XDATA,varargin{:});
Caused by:
Failure in initial user-supplied objective function evaluation. LSQCURVEFIT cannot continue.
i have tried i) making all vectors/matrices the same length and ii) tried using .* instead. nothing works and i am giving the same error message
Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated, whether it is suggestion regading what method is should use, suggestions to my code or something third.
EDIT TO ANSWER Osmoses:
A really good point but i do not think that is the problem. just checked the size of the all the vectors/matrices and they should be alright
>> size(Q)
ans =
1 1780
>> size(P)
ans =
1 1780
>> size(xdata)
ans =
2 1780
>> size([1;0.001]) - the initial guess/start point for xdata (x0)
ans =
2 1
>> size(ydata)
ans =
1 1780
UPDATE
I think i have identified the problem. the function RodFit works fine when i specify the input directly e.g. [Q,P] = RodFit(1,0.001);.
however, if i define x0 as x0 = [1,0.001] i cannot pass x0 to the function
>> x0 = [1;0.001]
x0 =
1.0000
0.0010
>> RodFit(x0);
Error using *
Inner matrix dimensions must agree.
Error in RodFit (line 15)
P = (integral(fun,0,pi/2,'ArrayValued',true))*k+C;
The same happens if i use x0 = [1,0.001]
clearly, matlab is interpreting x0 as input for k only and attempts to multiplay a vector of length(ydata) and a vector of length(x0) which obviously fails.
So my problem is that i need to code so that lsqcurvefit understands that the first column of xdata and x0 is the k variable and the second column of xdata and x0 is the C variable. According to the documentation - Passing Matrix Arguments - i should be able to pass x0 as a matrix to the solver. The solver should then also pass the xdata in the same format as x0.
Have you tried (that's sometimes the mistake) looking at the orientation of your input data (e.g. if xdata & ydata are both row/column vectors?). Other than that your code looks like it should work.
I have been able to solve some of the problems. One mistake in my code was that the objective function did not use of vector a variables but instead took in two variables - k and C. changing the code to accept a vector solved this problem
function [ Q,P ] = RodFit(X)
% Function file for the theoretical scattering from a Rod
% R = radius, L = length
% Q = 0.001:0.0001:0.5;
Q = linspace(0.11198,4.46904,1780);
fun = #(x) ( (2.*besselj(1,Q.*R.*sin(x)))./...
(Q.*R.*sin(x)).*...
(sin(Q.*L.*cos(x)./2))./...
(Q.*L.*cos(x)./2)...
).^2.*sin(x);
P = (integral(fun,0,pi/2,'ArrayValued',true))*X(1)+X(2);
with the code above, i can define x0 as x0 = [1 0.001];, and pass that into RodFit and get a result. i can also pass xdata into the function and get a result e.g. [Q,P] = RodFit(xdata(2,:));
Notice i have changed the orientation of all vectors so that they are now row-vectors and xdata has size size(xdata) = 1780 2
so i thought i had solved the problem completely but i still run into problems when i run lsqcurvefit. i get the error message
Error using RodFit
Too many input arguments.
Error in lsqcurvefit (line 199)
initVals.F = feval(funfcn_x_xdata{3},xCurrent,XDATA,varargin{:});
Caused by:
Failure in initial user-supplied objective function evaluation. LSQCURVEFIT cannot continue.
i have no idea why - does anyone have any idea about why Rodfit recieves to many input arguments when i call lsqcurvefit but not when i run the function manual using xdata?
I created a function in matlab that returns a vector like
function w = W_1D(x,pos,h)
w=zeros(1,length(x));
if (h~=0)
xmpos = x-pos;
inds1 = (-h <= xmpos) & (xmpos < 0);
w(inds1) = xmpos(inds1)./h + 1;
inds2 = (0 <= xmpos) & (xmpos <= h);
w(inds2) = -xmpos(inds2)./h + 1;
else
error('h shouldn't be 0')
end
end
Thus, in the end, there is a vector w of size length(x).
Now i created a second function like
function f = W_2D(x,y,pos_1,pos_2,h)
w_x = W_1D(x,pos_1,h);
w_y = W_1D(y,pos_2,h);
f = w_x'*w_y;
end
where length(x)=length(y). Thus, the function W_2D obviously returns a matrix.
But when I now try to evaluate the integral over a rectangular domain like e.g.
V = integral2(#(x,y) W_2D(x,y,2,3,h),0,10,0,10);
matlab returns some errors:
Error using integral2Calc>integral2t/tensor (line 242)
Integrand output size does not match the input size.
Error in integral2Calc>integral2t (line 56)
[Qsub,esub] = tensor(thetaL,thetaR,phiB,phiT);
Error in integral2Calc (line 10)
[q,errbnd] = integral2t(fun,xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax,optionstruct);
Error in integral2 (line 107)
Q = integral2Calc(fun,xmin,xmax,yminfun,ymaxfun,opstruct);
I also tried to vary something in the W_2D-function: instead of f = w_x'*w_y;
I tried f = w_x.'*w_y;
or w_y = transpose(w_y); f = kron(w_x,w_y);, but there is always this error with the Integrand output size-stuff.
Can anyone explain, where my fault is?
EDIT: After Werner's hint with the keyboard debugging method, I can tell you the following.
The first step returns w_x of type <1x154 double>, w_y is <1x192 double>, x and y are both <14x14 double>. In the next step, f appears with a value of <154x192 double>. Then everything disappears, except x and y and the matlab-function integral2Calc.m appears in the editor and it jumps to the Function Call Stack integral2t/tensor and after some more steps, the error occurs here
Z = FUN(X,Y); NFE = NFE + 1;
if FIRSTFUNEVAL
if ~isfloat(Z)
error(message('MATLAB:integral2:UnsupportedClass',class(Z)));
end
% Check that FUN is properly vectorized. This is important here
% because we (otherwise) always pass in square matrices, which
% reduces the probability of the user generating an error by
% using matrix functions instead of elementwise functions.
Z1 = FUN(X(VTSTIDX),Y(VTSTIDX)); NFE = NFE + 1;
if ~isequal(size(Z),size(X)) || ~isequal(size(Z1),size(VTSTIDX))
% Example:
% integral2(#(x,y)1,0,1,0,1)
error(message('MATLAB:integral2:funSizeMismatch'));
end
Hope that information is detailed enough...I have no idea what happenes, because my example is exact as it is given on the mathworks site about integral2, isn't it?
Maybe I should precise a bit more, what I wanna do: since W_2D gives me a surface w(x,y) of a compactly supported 2-dimensional hat-function, stored in a matrix w, I want to calculate the volume between the (x,y)-plane and the surface z=w(x,y)...
EDIT2: I still do not understand how to handle the problem, that integral2 creates matrices as inputs for my W_1D-functions, which are called in W_2D and intended to have a <1xn double>-valued input and return a <1xn double> output, but at least I can simply use the following to solve the integration over the tensor product by using two one-dimensional integral-calls, that is
V = integral(#(x)integral(#(y)W_1D(y,3,h),0,10).*W_1D(x,2,h),0,10);
This first function is quite wrong. You are not indexing the array positions while you are doing w = x inside for.
Besides, if that would work, you are returning a line vector, that is, size 1xlength(x) and when you do w_x'*w_y you are doing length(x)x1 times 1xlength(y), which would give you a matrix length(x)*length(y).
Consider correcting your function:
function w = W_1D(x,pos)
w = zeros(length(x),1); % Allocate w as column vector, so that the product gives a scalar (as I suppose that it is what you want.
for ii=1:length(x) % Here, so that is indexes w and x elements as you need
w(ii)=x(ii) - pos; % I changed your code to something that makes sense, but I don't know if that is what you want to do, you have to adapt it to work correctly.
end
end
You may also want to debug your functions, consider adding keyboard before your operations and check what they are returning using dbstep. I.e:
function f = W_2D(x,y,pos_1,pos_2)
w_x = W_1D(x,pos_1);
w_y = W_1D(y,pos_2);
keyboard
f = w_x'*w_y;
end
Execution will stop at keyboard, then you can check w_x size, w_y size, and do dbstep to go after f = w_x'*w_y and see what it returned. After you finish debug, you can do dbcont so that it will continue execution.
This answer is a draft as it is quite difficult to help you with the information you have provided. But I think you can start working the things out with this. If you have more doubts feel free to ask.
I have one file with the following code:
function fx=ff(x)
fx=x;
I have another file with the following code:
function g = LaplaceTransform(s,N)
g = ff(x)*exp(-s*x);
a=0;
b=1;
If=0;
h=(b-a)/N;
If=If+g(a)*h/2+g(b)*h/2;
for i=1:(N-1)
If=If+g(a+h*i)*h;
end;
If
Whenever I run the second file, I get the following error:
Undefined function or variable 'x'.
What I am trying to do is integrate the function g between 0 and 1 using trapezoidal approximations. However, I am unsure how to deal with x and that is clearly causing problems as can be seen with the error.
Any help would be great. Thanks.
Looks like what you're trying to do is create a function in the variable g. That is, you want the first line to mean,
"Let g(x) be a function that is calculated like this: ff(x)*exp(-s*x)",
rather than
"calculate the value of ff(x)*exp(-s*x) and put the result in g".
Solution
You can create a subfunction for this
function result = g(x)
result = ff(x) * exp(-s * x);
end
Or you can create an anonymous function
g = #(x) ff(x) * exp(-s * x);
Then you can use g(a), g(b), etc to calculate what you want.
You can also use the TRAPZ function to perform trapezoidal numerical integration. Here is an example:
%# parameters
a = 0; b = 1;
N = 100; s = 1;
f = #(x) x;
%# integration
X = linspace(a,b,N);
Y = f(X).*exp(-s*X);
If = trapz(X,Y) %# value returned: 0.26423
%# plot
area(X,Y, 'FaceColor',[.5 .8 .9], 'EdgeColor','b', 'LineWidth',2)
grid on, set(gca, 'Layer','top', 'XLim',[a-0.5 b+0.5])
title('$\int_0^1 f(x) e^{-sx} \,dx$', 'Interpreter','latex', 'FontSize',14)
The error message here is about as self-explanatory as it gets. You aren't defining a variable called x, so when you reference it on the first line of your function, MATLAB doesn't know what to use. You need to either define it in the function before referencing it, pass it into the function, or define it somewhere further up the stack so that it will be accessible when you call LaplaceTransform.
Since you're trying to numerically integrate with respect to x, I'm guessing you want x to take on values evenly spaced on your domain [0,1]. You could accomplish this using e.g.
x = linspace(a,b,N);
EDIT: There are a couple of other problems here: first, when you define g, you need to use .* instead of * to multiply the elements in the arrays (by default MATLAB interprets multiplication as matrix multiplication). Second, your calls g(a) and g(b) are treating g as a function instead of as an array of function values. This is something that takes some getting used to in MATLAB; instead of g(a), you really want the first element of the vector g, which is given by g(1). Similarly, instead of g(b), you want the last element of g, which is given by g(length(g)) or g(end). If this doesn't make sense, I'd suggest looking at a basic MATLAB tutorial to get a handle on how vectors and functions are used.
