Accumulate sliding blocks into a matrix - matlab

In MATLAB, we can use im2col and col2im to transform from columns to blocks and back, for example
>> A = floor(30*rand(4,6))
A =
8 5 2 13 15 11
22 11 27 13 24 24
5 18 23 9 23 15
20 23 14 15 19 10
>> B = im2col(A,[2 2],'distinct')
B =
8 5 2 23 15 23
22 20 27 14 24 19
5 18 13 9 11 15
11 23 13 15 24 10
>> col2im(B,[2 2],[4,6],'distinct')
ans =
8 5 2 13 15 11
22 11 27 13 24 24
5 18 23 9 23 15
20 23 14 15 19 10
my question is that: after using im2col with sliding mode
>> B = im2col(A,[2 2],'sliding')
B =
8 22 5 5 11 18 2 27 23 13 13 9 15 24 23
22 5 20 11 18 23 27 23 14 13 9 15 24 23 19
5 11 18 2 27 23 13 13 9 15 24 23 11 24 15
11 18 23 27 23 14 13 9 15 24 23 19 24 15 10
I wish to get a 4-by-6 matrix C from B(without knowing A) that the value at each site equals the original value multiple the times of sampling.
In other word, C(1,1)=A(1,1), C(1,2)=A(1,2)*2, C(2,2) = A(2,2)*4
Though we can easily implement with a for-loop, but the efficiency is critically low. So how to vectorize the implementation?

If I'm understanding correctly, you're desired output is
C = [ 8 10 4 26 30 11
44 44 108 52 96 48
10 72 92 36 92 30
20 46 28 30 38 10 ]
which I got by computing C = A.*S where
S = [ 1 2 2 2 2 1
2 4 4 4 4 2
2 4 4 4 4 2
1 2 2 2 2 1 ]_
The entries in S represent how many sliding blocks each entry is a member of.
I believe your question boils down to how to construct the matrix S.
Solution:
S = min(min(1:M,M:-1:1),x)'*min(min(1:N,N:-1:1),y)
C = A.*S
where A is size M-by-N, and your sliding block is size x-by-y.
Explanation:
In the given example, M=4, N=6, x=2, and y=2.
Notice the solution S can be written as the outer product of two vectors:
S = [1;2;2;1] * [1,2,2,2,2,1]
We construct each of these two vectors using the values of M,N,x,y:
min(1:M,M:-1:1)' == min(1:4,4:-1:1)'
== min([1,2,3,4], [4,3,2,1])'
== [1,2,2,1]'
== [1;2;2;1]
In this case, the extra min(...,x) does nothing since all entries are already <=x.
min(1:N,N:-1:1) == min(1:6,6:-1:1)
== min([1,2,3,4,5,6],[6,5,4,3,2,1])
== [1,2,3,3,2,1]
This time the extra min(...,y) does matter.
min(min(1:N,N:-1:1),y) == min([1,2,3,3,2,1],y)
== min([1,2,3,3,2,1],2)
== [1,2,2,2,2,1]

average using index form the array

I have and time sequence: lines are channels, columns are time points, say
x = [1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8; 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16; 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 ; 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32]
x =
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24
25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32
I have an index of a specific points in time when I want to compute mean for the x
y = [4 5 6]
y =
4 5 6
How can I get a 3D array out of x with +- 2 points around and average thrue 3d dimation? In over words, I need to average
3 4 5 4 5 6 5 6 7
11 12 13 and 12 13 14 and 13 14 15
19 20 21 20 21 22 21 22 23
27 28 29 28 29 39 29 30 31
for each entrance.
Since the mean is of all the rows, just get the 3 chunks (1 before, the index, and 1 after) and calculate the mean value. I didn't use the mean function since will calculate the mean of each column. Instead of that, I just add the 3 chunks and divide them by 3.
% Get the x values
x = [1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8;...
9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16;...
17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 ;...
25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32]
% Define the idx
idx = [4 5 6]
% Get the mean matrix. It is the mean of 1 column before
% the idx and 1 column after. Since there are 3, divided by 3.
% 1 before index 1 after
MeanMatrix = (x(:,idx-1)+x(:,idx)+x(:,idx+1))./3
The best approach i think would be to loop over the array something like this:
result = [];
for i = 1:length(y)
result = [result, mean(x(1:height(x),y(i)-1:y(i)+1), 'all')];
end
Here, we are just splitting it into the chunks you want using indexing then computing the mean over the entire selected chunk.

how to display my vertical matrix in an horizontal matrix?

In one file 'file.mat', I have a matrix which its size is (1,100), it is written vertically like this:
M1 =
Columns 1 through 26:
6 13 3 15 13 12 8 5 5 1 11 8 5 9 1 7 15 9 2 5 7 7 3 9 0 13
Columns 27 through 52:
4 5 7 2 6 6 2 7 12 5 5 12 0 6 11 15 1 2 12 9 13 9 7 13 2 2
Columns 53 through 78:
7 15 4 15 5 12 5 12 14 3 10 15 12 5 5 15 3 3 9 3 6 0 13 13 8 5
Columns 79 through 100:
2 10 0 8 5 5 9 8 13 14 15 14 10 6 7 8 9 10 14 5 2 5
How to change it in an horizontal Matrix?
You can use M1.' or permute(M1,[2 1]). If you want all numbers to be in one horizontal line (i.e. to be an vector) you can use reshape(M1, [1,100])
What you have is a horizontal vector, but MATLAB displays it like that so that you can easily see where each element belongs. I guess what you want is to display the vector as a horizontal vector, so that you can copy-paste it. If so:
You can use sprintf if you want to display this as a long vector.
sprintf('%i ', M)
ans =
35 3 31 8 30 4 1 32 9 28 5 36 6 7 2 33 34 29 26 21 22 17 12 13 19 23 27 10 14 18 24 25 20 15 16 11
Or if you need the brackets:
['[', sprintf('%i ', M), ']']
ans =
[35 3 31 8 30 4 1 32 9 28 5 36 6 7 2 33 34 29 26 21 22 17 12 13 19 23 27 10 14 18 24 25 20 15 16 11 ]
You can also have it tab-separated: sprintf('%i\t', M), or with commas: sprintf('%i,', M).
If you want to reshape your horizontal vector to a vertical, you can do:
M = M.';
Note that ' is NOT the transpose operator, .' is. If you have a vector, but don't know whether it's horizontal of vertical, use the following notation: M = M(:).', or reshape(M, 1, []).

MATLAB: How to make 2D binary mask from mesh?

I'm using MESH2D in Matlab in order to mesh ROI (Region Of Interest) from images. Now I would like to make binary masks from these triangular meshes. The outputs from [p,t] = mesh2d(node) are:
p = Nx2 array of nodal XY co-ordinates.
t = Mx3 array of triangles as indicies into P, defined with a counter-clockwise node ordering.
Example of an initial code (feel free to improve it!):
mask= logical([0 0 0 0 0; 0 1 1 0 0; 0 1 1 1 1; 0 1 1 0 0]) %let's say this is my ROI
figure, imagesc(mask)
lol=regionprops(mask,'all')
[p,t] = mesh2d(lol.ConvexHull); %it should mesh the ROI
How to make masks from this triangular mesh?
Thank you in advance!

How to Store Matrix/Vector and values in Matlab

I am trying to store vectors. When I run the program in the loop I see all the values, but when referred outside the loop only the last vector is evaluated and stored (the one that ends with prime number 953, see below). Any calculations done with the PVX vector are done only with the last entry. I want PVX to do calculations with all the results not just the last entry. How can I store these results to do calculations with?
This is the code:
PV=[2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29];
for numba=2:n
if mod(numba,PV)~=0;
xp=numba;
PVX=[2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 xp]
end
end
The first few results looks like this:
PVX: Prime Vectors (Result)
PVX =
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31
PVX =
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 37
PVX =
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 41
PVX =
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 43
PVX = ...........................................................
PVX =
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 953
If you want to store all PVX values, use a different row for each:
PV = [2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29];
PVX = [];
for numba=2:n
if mod(numba,PV)~=0;
xp = numba;
PVX = [PVX; 2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 xp];
end
end
Of course if would be better to initiallize the PVX matrix to the appropriate size, but the number of rows is hard to predict.
Alternatively, build the PVX without loops:
xp = setdiff(primes(n), primes(29)).'; %'// all primes > 29 and <= n
PVX = [ repmat([2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29], numel(xp), 1) xp ];
As an example, for n=100, either of the above approaches gives
PVX =
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 37
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 41
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 43
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 47
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 53
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 59
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 61
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 67
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 71
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 73
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 79
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 83
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 89
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 97
I'm assuming you were going for this:
PVX=[2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29];
for numba=2:n
if mod(numba,PVX)~=0;
xp=numba;
PVX(end+1) = xp;
%// Or alternatively PVX = [PVX, xp];
end
end
but if you could get an estimate of how large PVX will be in the end, you should pre-allocate the array first for a significant speed up.
So, looks like you need all prime till n
As Dan said use this :
PVX=[2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 ];
for numba=2:n
if mod(numba,PVX)~=0
xp=numba;
PVX=[ PVX xp];
end
end
Or why not simply use primes function ?
PVX = primes( n ) ;

In matlab, how to calculate elapsed time between rows in a matrix

I have a 21128x9 matrix in the following format:
x = ['Participant No.' 'yyyy' 'mm' 'dd' 'HH' 'MM' 'SS' 'question No.' 'response']
e.g.
x =
Columns 1 through 5
18 2011 10 26 15
18 2011 10 26 15
18 2011 10 26 15
18 2011 10 26 15
18 2011 10 26 15
19 2011 10 31 13
19 2011 10 31 13
19 2011 10 31 13
19 2011 10 31 13
19 2011 10 31 13
Columns 6 through 9
42 33 27 4
42 39 17 2
42 45 52 2
42 47 45 3
42 50 12 3
6 5 36 1
6 20 27 4
6 22 34 5
6 33 43 3
6 42 42 1
where columns 2-7 are date vectors.
The data are sorted by date/time.
I'd like to calculate the time taken to answer each question for each participant - i.e. the time elapsed between row 1 and 2, 2 and 3, 3 and 4, 4 and 5, and then 6 and 7, 7 and 8 etc. - to end up with a matrix, sorted by participant number, where I can then work out the mean time taken per question.
I've tried using the etime function, but to no avail.
EDIT: With regards to etime, just to see if it would work in practice, I tried to write:
etime(x(2,5:7),x(1,5:7))
to compare just columns 5-7 of rows 1 and 2, but i keep getting back:
??? Index exceeds matrix dimensions.
Error in ==> etime at 41
t = 86400*(datenummx(t1(:,1:3)) - datenummx(t0(:,1:3))) + ...
You were almost there! You needed to change the 5s to 2s, that's all:
etime(x(2,2:7),x(1,2:7))
Now to get them all lets make two matrices of the date vectors but one row out of synch with each other:
fisrt set up x:
x =[ 18 2011 10 26 15 42 33 27 4
18 2011 10 26 15 42 39 17 2
18 2011 10 26 15 42 45 52 2
18 2011 10 26 15 42 47 45 3
18 2011 10 26 15 42 50 12 3
19 2011 10 31 13 6 5 36 1
19 2011 10 31 13 6 20 27 4
19 2011 10 31 13 6 22 34 5
19 2011 10 31 13 6 33 43 3
19 2011 10 31 13 6 42 42 1]
now extract the times:
Tn = x(1:end-1, 2:7);
Tnplus1 = x(2:end, 2:7);
And no to get a vector of the difference in seconds between consecutive rows:
etime(Tnplus1, Tn)
Which results in:
ans =
6
6
2
3
422595
15
2
11
9
Also if you don't care about the year month day data just set them to zero i.e.
Tn(:, 1:3) = 0;
Tnplus1(:, 1:3) = 0;
etime(Tnplus1, Tn)
ans =
6
6
2
3
-9405
15
2
11
9
Here are some simple steps:
Calculate the difference between the two rows that you want to compare
Multiply with a vector that contains the number of seconds per unit
Small scale example:
% Hours Mins Secs:
difference = ([23 12 4] - [23 11 59]);
secvec = difference .* [3600 60 1];
secdiff = sum(secvec)
