I have an MxN matrix and I want a column vector v, using the vector s that tells me for each row in the matrix what column I will take.
Here's an example:
Matrix =
[ 4 13 93 20 42;
31 18 94 64 02;
7 44 24 91 15;
11 20 43 38 31;
21 42 72 60 99;
13 81 31 87 50;
32 22 83 24 04]
s = [4 4 5 4 4 4 3].'
And the desired output is:
v = [20 64 15 38 60 87 83].'
I thought using the expression
Matrix(:,s)
would've work but it doesn't. Is there a solution without using for loops to access the rows separately?
It's not pretty, and there might be better solutions, but you can use the function sub2ind like this:
M(sub2ind(size(M),1:numel(s),s'))
You can also do it with linear indexing, here is an example:
M=M'; s=s';
M([0:size(M,1):numel(M)-1]+s)

How to add the value in specific range in a matrix?
I mean if i have a matrix
Columns 1 through 7
4 4 4 4 4 4 4
48 48 48 48 48 48 48
Columns 8 through 14
4 4 4 13 13 13 13
48 48 48 57 57 57 57
Columns 15 through 20
13 13 13 13 13 13
57 57 57 57 57 57
I want to sum all 4 values ,all 13 values,all 48 values,and all 57 values,so the result should be m=[40 130 480 570]
The easiest but stupid method is like this
a=sum(1,(1:10));
b=sum(1,(11:20));
c=sum(2,(1:10));
d=sum(2,(11:20));
m=[a b c d]
If i want to write a code with for-loop or while-loop to show the result i want.how do i write the code?
Or can i use the some method to write a code without loop to show this?
Though the solution of #phnx works fine, you can also use the other outputs of the unique function in combination with accumarray as described in the docs:
[C, ~, ic] = unique(a);
a_counts = accumarray(ic,1);
m = C.*a_counts
This will avoid the warning 'hist' is not recommended...
A simple two-line solution, with A as your original matrix, would be:
[a,b]=hist(A(:),unique(A(:)))
c = a .* b'
with a containing the number of occurances, b the unique elements and c the sums.
for a=1:50; %numbers 1 through 50
for b=1:50;
c=sqrt(a^2+b^2);
if c<=50&c(rem(c,1)==0);%if display only if c<=50 and c=c/1 has remainder of 0
pyth=[a,b,c];%pythagorean matrix
disp(pyth)
else c(rem(c,1)~=0);%if remainder doesn't equal to 0, omit output
end
end
end

This problem involves the Pythagorean theorem but we cannot use the built in function so I had to write one myself. The problem is for example columns 1 & 2 from the first two rows have the same numbers. How do I code it so it only deletes one of the rows if the columns 1 and 2 have the same number combination? I've tried unique function but it doesn't really delete the combinations. I have read about deleting duplicates from previous posts but those have confused me even more. Any help on how to go about this problem will help me immensely!
Thank you
welcome to StackOverflow.
The problem in your code seems to be, that pyth only contains 3 values, [a, b, c]. The unique() funcion used in the next line has no effect in that case, because only one row is contained in pyth. another issue is, that the values idx and out are calculated in each loop cycle. This should be placed after the loops. An example code could look like this:
pyth = zeros(0,3);
for a=1:50
for b=1:50
c = sqrt(a^2 + b^2);
if c<=50 && rem(c,1)==0
abc_sorted = sort([a,b,c]);
pyth = [pyth; abc_sorted];
end
end
end
% do final sorting outside of the loop
[~,idx] = unique(pyth, 'rows', 'stable');
out = pyth(idx,:);
disp(out)
a few other tips for writing MATLAB code:
You do not need to end for or if/else stements with a semicolon
else statements cover any other case not included before, so they do not need a condition.
Some performance reommendations:
Due to the symmetry of a and b (a^2 + b^2 = b^2 + a^2) the b loop could be constrained to for b=1:a, which would roughly save you half of the loop cycles.
if you use && for contencation of scalar values, the second part is not evaluated, if the first part already fails (source).

You can also linearize your algorithm (but we're still using bruteforce):
[X,Y] = meshgrid(1:50,1:50); %generate all the combination
C = (X(:).^2+Y(:).^2).^0.5; %sums of two square for every combination
ind = find(rem(C,1)==0 & C<=50); %get the index
res = unique([sort([X(ind),Y(ind)],2),C(ind)],'rows'); %check for uniqueness
Now you could really optimized your algorithm using math, you should read this question. It will be useful if n>>50.
I have a few multidimensional matrices of dimensions mxnxt, where each element in mxn is an individual sensor input, and t is time. What I want to do is analyse only the peak values for each element in mxn over t, so I would end up with a single 2D matrix of mxn containing only max values.
I know there are are ways to get a single overall max value, but is there a way to combine this with element-by-element operations like bsxfun so that it examines each individual element over t?
I'd be grateful for any help you can give because I'm really stuck at the moment. Thanks in advance!
Is this what you want?
out = max(A,[],3); %// checking maximum values in 3rd dimension
Example:
A = randi(50,3,3,3); %// Random 3x3x3 dim matrix
out = max(A,[],3);
Results:
A(:,:,1) =
35 5 8
38 12 42
23 46 27
A(:,:,2) =
50 6 39
4 49 41
23 1 44
A(:,:,3) =
5 41 10
20 22 14
13 46 8
>> out
out =
50 41 39
38 49 42
23 46 44
You can call max() with the matrix and select the dimension (look the documentation) on which the operation will be calculated, e.g
M = max(A,[],3)
Quick MATLAB question.
What would be the best/most efficient way to select a certain number of elements, 'n' in windows of 'm'. In other words, I want to select the first 50 elements of a sequence, then elements 10-60, then elements 20-70 ect.
Right now, my sequence is in vector format(but this can easily be changed).
EDIT:
The sequences that I am dealing with are too long to be stored in my RAM. I need to be able to create the windows, and then call upon the window that I want to analyze/preform another command on.
Do you have enough RAM to store a 50-by-nWindow array in memory? In that case, you can generate your windows in one go, and then apply your processing on each column
%# idxMatrix has 1:50 in first col, 11:60 in second col etc
idxMatrix = bsxfun(#plus,(1:50)',0:10:length(yourVector)-50); %'#
%# reshapedData is a 50-by-numberOfWindows array
reshapedData = yourVector(idxMatrix);
%# now you can do processing on each column, e.g.
maximumOfEachWindow = max(reshapedData,[],1);
To complement Kerrek's answer: if you want to do it in a loop, you can use something like
n = 50
m = 10;
for i=1:m:length(v)
w = v(i:i+n);
% Do something with w
end
There's a slight issue with the description of your problem. You say that you want "to select the first 50 elements of a sequence, then elements 10-60..."; however, this would translate to selecting elements:
1-50
10-60
20-70
etc.
That first sequence should be 0-10 to fit the pattern which of course in MATLAB would not make sense since arrays use one-indexing. To address this, the algorithm below uses a variable called startIndex to indicate which element to start the sequence sampling from.
You could accomplish this in a vectorized way by constructing an index array. Create a vector consisting of the starting indices of each sequence. For reuse sake, I put the length of the sequence, the step size between sequence starts, and the start of the last sequence as variables. In the example you describe, the length of the sequence should be 50, the step size should be 10 and the start of the last sequence depends on the size of the input data and your needs.
>> startIndex = 10;
>> sequenceSize = 5;
>> finalSequenceStart = 20;
Create some sample data:
>> sampleData = randi(100, 1, 28)
sampleData =
Columns 1 through 18
8 53 10 82 82 73 15 66 52 98 65 81 46 44 83 9 14 18
Columns 19 through 28
40 84 81 7 40 53 42 66 63 30
Create a vector of the start indices of the sequences:
>> sequenceStart = startIndex:sequenceSize:finalSequenceStart
sequenceStart =
10 15 20
Create an array of indices to index into the data array:
>> index = cumsum(ones(sequenceSize, length(sequenceStart)))
index =
1 1 1
2 2 2
3 3 3
4 4 4
5 5 5
>> index = index + repmat(sequenceStart, sequenceSize, 1) - 1
index =
10 15 20
11 16 21
12 17 22
13 18 23
14 19 24
Finally, use this index array to reference the data array:
>> sampleData(index)
ans =
98 83 84
65 9 81
81 14 7
46 18 40
44 40 53
Use (start : step : end) indexing: v(1:1:50), v(10:1:60), etc. If the step is 1, you can omit it: v(1:50).
Consider the following vectorized code:
x = 1:100; %# an example sequence of numbers
nwind = 50; %# window size
noverlap = 40; %# number of overlapping elements
nx = length(x); %# length of sequence
ncol = fix((nx-noverlap)/(nwind-noverlap)); %# number of sliding windows
colindex = 1 + (0:(ncol-1))*(nwind-noverlap); %# starting index of each
%# indices to put sequence into columns with the proper offset
idx = bsxfun(#plus, (1:nwind)', colindex)-1; %'
%# apply the indices on the sequence
slidingWindows = x(idx)
The result (truncated for brevity):
slidingWindows =
1 11 21 31 41 51
2 12 22 32 42 52
3 13 23 33 43 53
...
48 58 68 78 88 98
49 59 69 79 89 99
50 60 70 80 90 100
In fact, the code was adapted from the now deprecated SPECGRAM function from the Signal Processing Toolbox (just do edit specgram.m to see the code).
I omitted parts that zero-pad the sequence in case the sliding windows do not evenly divide the entire sequence (for example x=1:105), but you can easily add them again if you need that functionality...
Assume we have the following data:
H_T = [36 66 21 65 52 67 73; 31 23 19 33 36 39 42]
P = [40 38 39 40 35 32 37]
Using MATLAB 7.0, I want to create three new matrices that have the following properties:
The matrix H (the first part in matrix H_T) will be divided to 3 intervals:
Matrix 1: the 1st interval contains the H values between 20 to 40
Matrix 2: the 2nd interval contains the H values between 40 to 60
Matrix 3: the 3rd interval contains the H values between 60 to 80
The important thing is that the corresponding T and P will also be included in their new matrices meaning that H will control the new matrices depending on the specifications defined above.
So, the resultant matrices will be:
H_T_1 = [36 21; 31 19]
P_1 = [40 39]
H_T_2 = [52; 36]
P_2 = [35]
H_T_3 = [66 65 67 73; 23 33 39 42]
P_3 = [38 40 32 37]
Actually, this is a simple example and it is easy by looking to create the new matrices depending on the specifications, BUT in my values I have thousands of numbers which makes it very difficult to do that.
Here's a quick solution
[~,bins] = histc(H_T(1,:), [20 40 60 80]);
outHT = cell(3,1);
outP = cell(3,1);
for i=1:3
idx = (bins == i);
outHT{i} = H_T(:,idx);
outP{i} = P(idx);
end
then you access the matrices as:
>> outHT{3}
ans =
66 65 67 73
23 33 39 42
>> outP{3}
ans =
38 40 32 37
