Summation of function in a for loop (matlab) - matlab

Suppose I have a function f(x) = cos(x). I want to evaluate f(x) in a form of g(x) = 1/2*f(0) + sum(1/4*f(a+h*i)) (for i is odd) + sum(3/4*f(a+h*i)) (for i is even except 0 and 10) + 1/2*f(b)
I write the code below, but it did not give the sum of (1/4*f(a+h*i)(for i is odd) and the sum of 3/4*f(a+h*i)(for i is even except 0 and 10).
a=0
h=0.1571
n=10
b=1.5708
for i = 1: n
simp_int2 = 0;
simp_int3 = 0;
simp_int1 = 1/2*f(0)
if i < n
if rem(i,2)~=0
simp_int2 = simp_int2 + 1/4*f(a+h*i)
end
if rem(i,2)==0
simp_int3 = simp_int3 + 3/4*f(a+h*i)
end
end
simp_int4 = 1/2*f(b)
end
simp_int = simp_int1 + simp_int2 + simp_int3 + simp_int4
I also tried cumsum and symsum. Both not working the way I intended. Thanks for any help!

You are resetting the accumulation variables at every iteration. Move the simp_* initializations to outside of the for loop.
Specifically:
a=0
h=0.1571
n=10
b=1.5708
% Change
simp_int1 = 1/2*f(0);
simp_int2 = 0;
simp_int3 = 0;
simp_int4 = 1/2*f(b);
for i = 1: n
if i < n
if rem(i,2)~=0
simp_int2 = simp_int2 + 1/4*f(a+h*i)
end
if rem(i,2)==0
simp_int3 = simp_int3 + 3/4*f(a+h*i)
end
end
end
simp_int = simp_int1 + simp_int2 + simp_int3 + simp_int4;

Since your function will return vector output for vector input you can do this without a for loop:
a=0
h=0.1571
n=10
b=1.5708
simp_int = 1/2*f(0) + sum(1/4*f(a + h*[1:2:n])) + sum(3/4*f(a+h*[2:2:n-1])) + 1/2*f(b)

How to display a function with double values instead of symbolic?

I want the function P to look like this:
-1 + 0.6366*(x+pi/2) + (-0.000)*(x + pi/2)*(x)
and right now it looks like this
(5734161139222659*x)/9007199254740992 + (5734161139222659*pi)/18014398509481984 - (8131029572207409*x*(x + pi/2))/324518553658426726783156020576256 - 1.

n = length(b);
x(1) = (1/A(1,1))*b(1);
for k = 2:n
s = 0;
for j = 1:k-1
s = s + A(k,j)*x(j);
end
x(k) = (1/A(k,k))*(b(k)-s);
end
end
The output you currently have is because symbolic uses exact arithmetic, so it outputs it as a rational number (hence the ugly fraction).
To have it output P using decimals, use vpa(). For instance output P using decimals to 5 significant digits
>> vpa(P, 5)
ans =
0.63662*x - 2.5056e-17*x*(x + 1.5708)
This will, however, also round pi, so you can't really have the best of both worlds here.

find optimum values of model iteratively

Given that I have a model that can be expressed as:
y = a + b*st + c*d2
where st is a smoothed version of some data, and a, b and c are model coffieicients that are unknown. An iterative process should be used to find the best values for a, b, and c and also an additional value alpha, shown below.
Here, I show an example using some data that I have. I'll only show a small fraction of the data here to get an idea of what I have:

The results that follow probably won't be meaningful as the full data would be needed (but this is an example). Using this data I have tried to solve iteratively by
y = d(:,1);
d1 = d(:,2);
d2 = d(:,3);
alpha_o = linspace(0.01,1,10);
a = linspace(0.01,1,10);
b = linspace(0.01,1,10);
c = linspace(0.01,1,10);
defining different values for a, b, and c as well as another term alpha, which is used in the model, and am now going to find every possible combination of these parameters and see which combination provides the best fit to the data:
% every possible combination of values
xx = combvec(alpha_o,a,b,c);
% loop through each possible combination of values
for j = 1:size(xx,2);
alpha_o = xx(1,j);
a_o = xx(2,j);
b_o = xx(3,j);
c_o = xx(4,j);
st = d1(1);
for i = 2:length(d1);
st(i) = alpha_o.*d1(i) + (1-alpha_o).*st(i-1);
end
st = st(:);
y_pred = a_o + (b_o*st) + (c_o*d2);
mae(j) = nanmean(abs(y - y_pred));
end
I can then re-run the model using these optimum values:
[id1,id2] = min(mae);
alpha_opt = xx(:,id2);
st = d1(1);
for i = 2:length(d1);
st(i) = alpha_opt(1).*d1(i) + (1-alpha_opt(1)).*st(i-1);
end
st = st(:);
y_pred = alpha_opt(2) + (alpha_opt(3)*st) + (alpha_opt(4)*d2);
mae_final = nanmean(abs(y - y_pred));
However, to reach a final answer I would need to increase the number of initial guesses to more than 10 for each variable. This will take a long time to run. Thereofre, I am wondering if there is a better method for what I am trying to do here? Any advice is appreciated.
Here's some thoughts: If you could decrease the amount of computation within each for loop, you could possibly speed it up. One possible way is to look for common factors between each loop and move it outside for loop:
If you look at the iteration, you'll see
st(1) = d1(1)
st(2) = a * d1(2) + (1-a) * st(1) = a *d1(2) + (1-a)*d1(1)
st(3) = a * d1(3) + (1-a) * st(2) = a * d1(3) + a *(1-a)*d1(2) +(1-a)^2 * d1(1)
st(n) = a * d1(n) + a *(1-a)*d1(n-1) + a *(1-a)^2 * d1(n-2) + ... +(1-a)^(n-1)*d1(1)
Which means st can be calculated by multiplying these two matrices (here I use n=4 for example to illustrate the concept) and sum along the first dimension:
temp1 = [ 0 0 0 a ;
0 0 a a(1-a) ;
0 a a(1-a) a(1-a)^2 ;
1 (1-a) (1-a)^2 (1-a)^3 ;]
temp2 = [ 0 0 0 d1(4) ;
0 0 d1(3) d1(3) ;
0 d1(2) d1(2) d1(2) ;
d1(1) d1(1) d1(1) d1(1) ;]
st = sum(temp1.*temp2,1)
Here's codes that utilize this concept: Computation has been moved out of the inner for loop and only assignment is left.
alpha_o = linspace(0.01,1,10);
xx = nchoosek(alpha_o, 4);
n = size(d1,1);
matrix_d1 = zeros(n, n);
d2 = d2'; % To make the dimension of d2 and st the same.
for ii = 1:n
matrix_d1(n-ii+1:n, ii) = d1(1:ii);
end
st = zeros(size(d1)'); % Pre-allocation of matrix will improve speed.
mae = zeros(1,size(xx,1));
matrix_alpha = zeros(n, n);
for j = 1 : size(xx,1)
alpha_o = xx(j,1);
temp = (power(1-alpha_o, [0:n-1])*alpha_o)';
matrix_alpha(n,:) = power(1-alpha_o, [0:n-1]);
for ii = 2:n
matrix_alpha(n-ii+1:n-1, ii) = temp(1:ii-1);
end
st = sum(matrix_d1.*matrix_alpha, 1);
y_pred = xx(j,2) + xx(j,3)*st + xx(j,4)*d2;
mae(j) = nanmean(abs(y - y_pred));
end
Then :
idx = find(min(mae));
alpha_opt = xx(idx,:);
st = zeros(size(d1)');
temp = (power(1-alpha_opt(1), [0:n-1])*alpha_opt(1))';
matrix_alpha = zeros(n, n);
matrix_alpha(n,:) = power(1-alpha_opt(1), [0:n-1]);;
for ii = 2:n
matrix_alpha(n-ii+1:n-1, ii) = temp(1:ii-1);
end
st = sum(matrix_d1.*matrix_alpha, 1);
y_pred = alpha_opt(2) + (alpha_opt(3)*st) + (alpha_opt(4)*d2);
mae_final = nanmean(abs(y - y_pred));
Let me know if this helps !

For loop output as an array

I wrote a code in Matlab which I predefine the variable "a" and then set up a for loop of 5 iterations where the variable "a" goes through some basic operations. However, the for loop output only saves the fifth iteration of "a." How do I save all 5 iterations in a 1x5 array?
The code is as follows:
a = 10;
k = 0.5;
n = 2;
for m = 1:5
a = a + (a*k) + n;
end
Edit:
I just found it that I have to create a new variable.
a = 10;
k = 0.5;
n = 2;
a_n = zeros(1,5);
for m = 1:5
a = a + (a*k) + n;
a_n(m) = a;
end
You may need to store value of a after each iteration into an another variable x
a = 10;
k = 0.5;
n = 2;
for m = 1:5
a = a + (a*k) + n;
x(m) = a;
end
x
Output:
x =
17.000 27.500 43.250 66.875 102.312
You would need to use a different variable to store the 5 iterations as an array.
Code would look something like this:
a = 10;
k = 0.5;
n = 2;
b = [];
for m = 1:5
a = (a + (a*k) + n)
b = [b a];
end
You can now print b for all 5 iteration values.
Here is an alternate way to update values into the 1-D matrix.

Matlab remove loop to calculate PT1

I am calculating PT1 behavior in Matlab using the input vector u:
u(20:50,1) = 2;
k = 0.8;
x=zeros(50,1);
for i=2:size(u,1)
x(i) = k*x(i-1) + (1-k)*u(i);
end
How can I remove the for loop to get the same result?
This is actually a first-order IIR filter, so you can use filter for that:
u(20:50, 1) = 2;
k = 0.8;
x = filter(1 - k, [1, -k], u);
If you write x(i) out for a couple of values, you'll see a pattern in it:
x(1) = 0; % since the loop starts at i=2
x(2) = k*x(1) + (1-k)*u(2)
= 0 + (1-k)*u(2)
x(3) = k*x(2) + (1-k)*u(3)
= k*(1-k)*u(2) + (1-k)*u(3)
x(4) = k*x(3) + (1-k)*u(4)
= k^2*(1-k)*u(2) + k*(1-k)*u(3) + (1-k)*u(4)
...
So you'll easily spot the pattern being:
x(i) = (1-k) * sum(k^(i-j)*u(j), j=2..i)
which is now an explicit function.
You could apply this to remove your loop, but in reality this explicit function itself must calculate a large sum. Doing this for every index of x takes probably more time than looping and re-using prior results.

Matrix indexing error in MATLAB

I keep getting this error in Matlab:
Attempted to access r(0,0); index must be a positive integer or
logical.
Error in ==> Romberg at 15
I ran it with Romberg(1.3, 2.19,8)
I think the problem is the statement is not logical because I made it positive and still got the same error. Anyone got some ideas of what i could do?
function Romberg(a, b, n)
h = b - a;
r = zeros(n,n);
for i = 1:n
h = h/2;
sum1 = 0;
for k = 1:2:2^(i)
sum1 = sum1 + f(a + k*h);
end
r(i,0) = (1/2)*r(i-1,0) + (sum1)*h;
for j = 1:i
r(i,j) = r(i,j-1) + (r(i,j-1) - r(i-1,j-1))/((4^j) - 1);
end
end
disp(r);
end
function f_of_x = f(x)
f_of_x = sin(x)/x;
end
There are two lines where you're using 0 to index, which you can't in Matlab:
r(i,0) = (1/2)*r(i-1,0) + (sum1)*h;
and
r(i,j) = r(i,j-1) + (r(i,j-1) - r(i-1,j-1))/((4^j) - 1);
when j==1 or i==1.
I suggest that you run your loops starting from 2, and replace the exponents i and j with (i-1) and (j-1), respectively.
As an aside: You could write the loop
for k = 1:2:2^(i)
sum1 = sum1 + f(a + k*h);
end
as
k = 1:2:2^i;
tmp = f(a + k*h);
sum1 = sum(tmp);
if you write f_of_x as
sin(x)./x
In MATLAB, vectors and matrices are indexed starting from 1. Therefore, the very first line of your code is invalid because the index on r is 0.
You have zero subscripts in
r(i,0) = (1/2)*r(i-1,0) + (sum1)*h;
This is impossible in MATLAB -- all indices start form 1.
