i have two matrices
r=10,000x2
q=10,000x2
i have to find out those rows of q which are one value or both values(as it is a two column matrix) different then r and allocate them in another matrix, right now i am trying this.i cannot use isequal because i want to know those rows
which are not equal this code gives me the individual elements not the complete rows different
can anyone help please
if r(:,:)~=q(:,:)
IN= find(registeredPts(:,:)~=q(:,:))
end
You can probably do this using ismember. Is this what you want? Here you get the values from q in rows that are different from r.
q=[1,2;3,4;5,6]
r=[1,2;3,5;5,6]
x = q(sum(ismember(q,r),2) < 2,:)
x =
3 4
What this do:
ismember creates an array with 1's in the positions where q == r, and 0 in the remaining positions. sum(.., 2) takes the column sum of each of these rows. If the sum is less than 2, that row is included in the new array.
Update
If the values might differ some due to floating point arithmetic, check out ismemberf from the file exchange. I haven't tested it myself, but it looks good.

I am trying to count the number of similar elements in two arrays, which can be done by the intersect function but I need to get only the values which are similar and have the same index. Any ideas?
If you are looking for how many entries in the two matrices are "nearly" the same, then set some tolerance tol, and then you want to find how many corresponding entries in your matrices (call them A and B) differ by less than tol.
abs(A-B)<tol
is a matrix the same size as A and B which has a 1 where the elements are close together, and a 0 where they're not. You can use
[i,j]=find(abs(A-B)<tol)
to get the positions of the nearly-mathcing elements, or
nnz(abs(A-B)<tol)
to just count how many values nearly-match.
I have a matrix with a large number of rows. I have another matrix that I will loop through one row at a time. For each row in the second matrix, I need to look for similar rows in the first matrix. Once all the similar rows are found, I need to know the row numbers of the similar rows. These rows will almost never be exact, so ismember does not work.
Also, the solution would preferably (not necessarily, however) give some way to set a level of similarity that would trigger the code to say it is similar and give me the row number.
Is there any way to do this? I've looked around, and I can't find anything.
You could use cosine distance, which finds the angle between two vectors. Similar vectors (in your case, a row and your comparison vector) have a value close to 1 and dissimilar vectors have a value close to 0.
function d = cosSimilarity(u, v)
d = dot(u,v)/(norm(u)*norm(v));
end
To apply this function to each to all pairs of rows in the matrices M and V you could use nested for loops. Hardly the most elegant, but it will work:
numRowsM = size(M, 1)
numRowsV = size(V, 1)
similarThresh = .9
for m = 1:numRowsM
for v = 1:numRowsV
similarity = cosSimilarity(V(v,:), M(m, :))
% Notify about similar rows
if similarity > similarThresh
disp([num2str(m) ' is similar to a row in V'])
end
end
end
Instead of nested for loops, there are definitely other ways. You could start by looking at the solution from this question, which will help you avoid the loop by converting the rows of the matrix into cells of a cell array and then applying the function with cellfun.
Lets say i have a matrix A of 300x65. the last column(65th) contains ordered values (1,2,3). the first 102 elements are '1', the second 50 elements are '2' and the remainder will be '3'.
I have another matrix B, which is 3x65 and i want to copy the first row of B by the number of '1's in matrix A. The second row of B should be copied by the number of '2's in in matrix A and the 3th row should be copied by the remaining value of matrix A. By doing this, matrix B should result in a 300x65 matrix.
I've tried to use the repmat function of matlab with no succes, does anyone know how to do this?
There are many inconsistencies in your problem
first if you copy 1 row of B for every element of A(which will end up happening by your description) that will result in a matrix 19500x65
secondly copy its self is a vague term, do you mean duplicate? do you want to store the copied value into a new var?
what I gathered from your problem is you want to preform some operation between A and B to create a matrix and store it in B which in itself will cause the process to warp as it goes if you do not have another variable to store the result in
so i suggest using a third variable c to store the result in and then if you need it to be in b set b = C
also for whatever process you badly described I recommend learning to use a 'for' loop effectively because it seems like that is what you would need to use
syntax for 'for' loop
for i = [start:increment:end]
//loops for the length of [start:increment:end]
//sets i to the nth element of [start:increment:end] where n is the number of times the loop has run
end
If I understand your question, this should do it
index = A(:,end); % will be a column of numbers with values of 1, 2, or 3
newB = B(index,:); % B has 3 rows, which are copied as required by "index"
This should result in newB having the same number of rows as A and the same number of columns as the original B
Introduction to problem:
I'm modelling a system where i have a matrix X=([0,0,0];[0,1,0],...) where each row represent a point in 3D-space. I then choose a random row, r, and take all following rows and rotate around the point represented by r, and make a new matrix from these rows, X_rot. I now want to check whether any of the rows from X_rot is equal two any of the rows of X (i.e. two vertices on top of each other), and if that is the case refuse the rotation and try again.
Actual question:
Until now i have used the following code:
X_sim=[X;X_rot];
if numel(unique(X_sim,'rows'))==numel(X_sim);
X(r+1:N+1,:,:)=X_rot;
end
Which works, but it takes up over 50% of my running time and i were considering if anybody in here knew a more efficient way to do it, since i don't need all the information that i get from unique.
P.S. if it matters then i typically have between 100 and 1000 rows in X.
Best regards,
Morten
Additional:
My x-matrix contains N+1 rows and i have 12 different rotational operations that i can apply to the sub-matrix x_rot:
step=ceil(rand()*N);
r=ceil(rand()*12);
x_rot=x(step+1:N+1,:);
x_rot=bsxfun(#minus,x_rot,x(step,:));
x_rot=x_rot*Rot(:,:,:,r);
x_rot=bsxfun(#plus,x_rot,x(step,:));
Two possible approaches (I don't know if they are faster than using unique):
Use pdist2:
d = pdist2(X, X_rot, 'hamming'); %// 0 if rows are equal, 1 if different.
%// Any distance function will do, so try those available and choose fastest
result = any(d(:)==0);
Use bsxfun:
d = squeeze(any(bsxfun(#ne, X, permute(X_rot, [3 2 1])), 2));
result = any(d(:)==0);
result is 1 if there is a row of X equal to some row of X_rot, and 0 otherwise.
How about ismember(X_rot, X, 'rows')?
I have a 161*32 matrix (labelled "indpic") in MATLAB and I'm trying to find the frequency of a given number appearing in a row. So I think that I need to analyse each row separately for each value, but I'm incredibly unsure about how to go about this (I'm only new to MATLAB). This also means I'm incredibly useless with loops and whatnot as well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
If you want to count the number of times a specific number appears in each row, you can do this:
sum(indpic == val, 2)
where indpic is your matrix (e.g image) and val is the desired value to be counted.
Explanation: checking equality of each element with the value produces a boolean matrix with "1"s at the locations of the counted value. Summing each row (i.e summing along the 2nd dimension results in the desired column vector, where each element being equal to the number of times val is repeated in the corresponding row).
If you want to count how many times each value is repeated in your image, this is called a histogram, and you can use the histc command to achieve that. For example:
histc(indpic, 1:256)
counts how many times each value from 1 to 256 appears in image indpic.
Like this,
sum(indpic(rownum,:) == 7)
obviously change 7 to whatever.
You can just write
length(find(indpic(row_num,:)==some_value))
and it will give you the number of elements equal to "some_value" in the "row_num"th row in matrix "indpic"
