Summing a Column values Starting with the Last one in Matlab - matlab

is there a function in matlab that sums up values starting from the last row and susbstitue the next row with summed values? for example:
data= 1 result 21
2 20
3 18
4 15
5 11
6 6

GameOfThrows is on the right track, but you need an additional flipud when you're done:
out = flipud(cumsum(flipud(data)));
The first flip ensures that we start summing from the last element instead of the first. We then perform our cumulative sum but you also want to be sure that the order is reversed so you have to call flipud one more time. However, to be absolutely safe, because we don't know if your data is a row or column vector, I'm going to ensure that your data is a column vector before doing what you ask:
out = flipud(cumsum(flipud(data(:))));

Matlab - filter matrix by having specific values

I have a matrix A and a vector b. I don't know their sizes, the size varies because it is the output of another function. What I want to do is filter A by a column (let's say jth column) which has at least one value that is in b.
How do I do this without measuring the size of b and concatenating every filtered result. Right now, the code is like this (assume j is a given value)
bsize=size(b,1);
for i=1:bsize
if i==1
a=A(A(:,j)==b(i),:);
else
a=[a; A(A(:,j)==b(i),:)];
end
end
I want to code a faster solution.
I am adding a numerical example just to make it clear. Let's say
A=[2 4
7 14
11 13
15 14]
and b=[4 14]
What I'm trying to do is filter to obtain the A matrix whose values are 4 and 14 in the second column, the elements of b to obtain the following output.
A=[2 4
7 14
15 14]
In my data A has more than 12000 rows and b has more than 100 elements. It doesn't always have to be the second column, sometimes the column index changes but that's not the problem now.
Use the ismember function to create a logical index based on column j=2 of A and vector b, and use that index into the rows of A:
output = A(ismember(A(:,j), b), :);

Matlab general matrix indexing for accesing several rows

Edit for clarity:
I have two matrices, p.valor 2x1000 and p.clase 1x1000. p.valor consists of random numbers spanning from -6 to 6. p.clase contains, in order, 200 1:s, 200 2:s and 600 3:s. What I wan´t to do is
Print p.valor using a diferent color/prompt for each clase determined in p.clase, as in following figure.
I first wrote this, in order to find out which locations in p.valor represented where the 1,2 respective 3 where in p.clase
%identify the locations of all 1,2 respective 3 in p.clase
f1=find(p.clase==1);
f2=find(p.clase==2);
f3=find(p.clase==3);
%define vectors in p.valor representing the locations of 1,2,3 in p.clase
x1=p.valor(f1);
x2=p.valor(f2);
x3=p.valor(f3);
There is 200 ones (1) in p.valor, thus, is x1=(1:200). The problem is that each number one(1) (and, respectively 2 and 3) represents TWO elements in p.valor, since p.valor has 2 rows. So even though p.clase and thus x1 now only have one row, I need to include the elements in the same colums as all locations in f1.
So the different alternatives I have tried have not yet been succesfull. Examples:
plot(x1(:,1), x1(:,2),'ro')
hold on
plot(x2(:,1),x2(:,2),'k.')
hold on
plot(x3(:,1),x3(:,2),'b+')
and
y1=p.valor(201:400);
y2=p.valor(601:800);
y3=p.valor(1401:2000);
scatter(x1,y1,'k+')
hold on
scatter(x2,y1,'b.')
hold on
scatter(x3,y1,'ro')
and
y1=p.valor(201:400);
y2=p.valor(601:800);
y3=p.valor(1401:2000);
plot(x1,y1,'k+')
hold on
plot(x2,y2,'b.')
hold on
plot(x3,y3,'ro')
My figures have the axisies right, but the plotted values does not match the correct figure provided (see top of the question).
Ergo, my question is: how do I include tha values on the second row in p.valor in my plotted figure?
I hope this is clearer!
Values from both rows simultaneously can be accessed using this syntax:
X=p.value(:,findX)
In this case, resulting X matrix will be a matrix having 2 rows and length(findX) columns.
M = magic(5)
M =
17 24 1 8 15
23 5 7 14 16
4 6 13 20 22
10 12 19 21 3
11 18 25 2 9
M2 = M(1:2, :)
M2 =
17 24 1 8 15
23 5 7 14 16
Matlab uses column major indexing. So to get to the next row, you actually just have to add 1. Adding 2 to an index on M2 here gets you to the next column, or adding 5 to an index on M
e.g. M2(3) is 24. To get to the next row you just add one i.e. M2(4) returns 5.To get to the next column add the number of rows so M2(2 + 2) gets you 1. If you add the number of columns like you suggested you just get gibberish.
So your method is very wrong. Freude's method is 100% correct, it's much easier to use subscript indexing than linear indexing for this. But I just wanted to explain why what you were trying doesn't work in Matlab. (aside from the fact that X=p.value(findX findX+1000) gives you a syntax error, I assume you meant X=p.value([findX findX+1000]))

How to change elements in matrices using MATLAB

Starting wish a 7x4 binary matrix I need to change a random bit in each column to simulate error. Have been trying to no avail.
A very straightforward way to do this is to use a for loop. It might not be the most efficient approach in MATLAB, but it's probably good enough considering your data set is so small.
Iterate through each of the four columns. On each iteration, randomly chose a number from 1 to 7 to represent the row in that column that you have selected to change. Finally, flip the bit at that row/column. The following code does just this. Assume that "A" is a binary matrix with 7 rows and 4 columns
for col=1:4; %// Iterate through each column
row = ceil(7*rand()); %// Randomly chose a number from 1 to 7 to represent row
A(row,col) = ~A(row,col); %// Flip the bit at the specified row/col
end
Another possibility is to create 4 random numbers in one call, and assign in a vectorized fashion:
rowNumbers = randi(4,[1 4])
A(rowNumbers,:) = ~A(rowNumbers,:);

matlab sort one column and keep respective values on second column

How do I just do a simple sort in matlab. I always have to use the excel link to import my data, sort it, then export back to matlab. This is annoying!!!
I have one matrix <10x10> and I want to sort the first column in descending order while keeping it's respective values on the second column. Matlab seems to just sort each column individually.
Example:
matrix a
5 4
8 9
0 6
7 3
matrix b (output)
0 6
5 4
7 3
8 9
The sortrows answer by #chaohuang is probably what you're looking for. However, it sorts based on all columns. If you only want to sort based on the first column, then you can do this:
% sort only the first column, return indices of the sort
[~,sorted_inds] = sort( a(:,1) );
% reorder the rows based on the sorted indices
b = a(sorted_inds,:);
Simply use b=sortrows(a); See here.

Removing rows with identical first column value in matlab

I have a cell matrix of size 10000 X 3 in Matlab and I would like to remove rows with the same value in the first column.
That is, if row i and row j have the same value in the first column, I'd like to delete both rows.
I should also say that there can be more than two rows with the same value in the first column and in that case, I'd like to delete all these rows.
How do I do it?
Thanks!
You can use the functions histc, unique and logical indexing to achieve what you want. Here's a small example.
a=randi(10,5,3) %#generate a sample random matrix
a =
5 3 5
5 7 10
7 7 4
8 2 6
8 2 3
[uniqVals,uniqIndx]=unique(a(:,1)); %# get unique values and corresponding indices of the first column of a
count=histc(a(:,1),uniqVals); %# get the bin counts of the elements (i.e., find which are repeated)
b=a(uniqIndx(count==1),:)
b =
7 7 4
Only the row with the non-repeated element is selected. Since you said that you have a cell matrix, simply covert it to a matrix using cell2mat before doing this.
