Substituting values of a matrix - matlab

Say I have the following two matrices:
>> x = [1 4 3; 6 4 3; 6 9 3; 2 4 3; 5 4 0; 5 3 1; 6 4 7];
>> y = [0 0 1; 1 1 0; 1 1 0; 0 1 1; 0.2 0.8 0.54; 1 1 1; 0 0 0];
Where you can think of x as some image, and y the degree of membership of of each element of x to some region of interest.
Say I set those elements in x that have degree of membership = 1 to 1 and the other elements to 0 as follows:
x = zeros(size(y));
x(y==1) = 1;
In which case I will have the following output:
0 0 1
1 1 0
1 1 0
0 1 1
0 0 0
1 1 1
0 0 0
Now, for the elements of 0, how can I substitute their values with the value of y in the corresponding location?
Thanks.

Try this:
x(x==0)=y(x==0);
Ans:
x =
0 0 1.0000
1.0000 1.0000 0
1.0000 1.0000 0
0 1.0000 1.0000
0.2000 0.8000 0.5400
1.0000 1.0000 1.0000
0 0 0

How to reorder the rows and columns of a matrix multiplying a vector indexed by (i,j)

I am trying to construct a particular matrix A which multiplies a column vector v= [p_0,0; p_0,1; ... p_0,N; p_1,0; ...; p_N,N].
I know the required matrix (B say) if the vector v was rearranged in the order given by sorting by the second index before the first ( i.e if v were [p_0,0; p_1,0; ... p_N,0; p_0,1; ...; p_N,N]), however would like to rearrange the rows and columns of this matrix to obtain A so that it multiplies the correctly ordered v.
Example:
B =
-2.6667 1.0000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
-0.5000 0 0.5000 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 -1.0000 -0.4706 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 -2.6667 1.0000 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 -0.5000 0 0.5000 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 -1.0000 -0.4706 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0 -2.6667 1.0000 0
0 0 0 0 0 0 -0.5000 0 0.5000
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 -1.0000 -0.4706
multiplying v in the wrong order
p_0,0
p_1,0
p_2,0
p_0,1
p_1,1
p_2,1
p_0,2
p_1,2
p_2,2
As long as I understood, you want to convert matrix B to the matrix A in the following order:
v1= [p_0,0; p_0,1; ... p_0,N; p_1,0; ...; p_N,N]
v2=[p_0,0; p_1,0; ... p_N,0; p_0,1; ...; p_N,N]
where A*v1 equals to B*v2.
For this, you need swapping of each row of the matrix.
Try this code:
m=length(B); % m is equal to NxN
N=sqrt(m);
A=zeros(m,m);
for i=0:N-1
for j=0:N-1
A(j+i*N+1,:)=B(i+N*j+1,:);
end
end

Matlab : What am I doing wrong? (Indexing)

I'm trying to solve a system of 10 linear equations out of which the middle 8 equations look alike. They look like this :
t_i-1 - 2.3086*(t_i) + t_i+1 == -7.7160
where i = 2:9
so I decided to construct the coefficient matrix and the constant matrix(array) for the system of equations through looping.This is what I did.
T = sym('t' , [1 10]); %% Creates a vector T = [ t1 t2 .... t10]
A_10 = zeros(10,10);
b_10 = zeros(10,1);
for i = 2:9 %% This loop generates the equations and arranges them in the matrices A_10 and B_10.
T(i-1) - 2.3086*T(i) + T(i+1) == -7.7160;
[A_10(i,i-1:i+1),b_10(i,1)] = equationsToMatrix(ans)
end
Everything except for the ninth row(last but one) is correct in the Matrix A_10. This is what A_10 looks like
A_10 =
Columns 1 through 9
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
1.0000 -2.3086 1.0000 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 1.0000 -2.3086 1.0000 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 1.0000 -2.3086 1.0000 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 1.0000 -2.3086 1.0000 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 1.0000 -2.3086 1.0000 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 1.0000 -2.3086 1.0000 0
0 0 0 0 0 0 1.0000 -2.3086 1.0000
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1.0000 1.0000
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Column 10
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
-2.3086
0
The last three elements of the row nine should be 1 , -2.3086 , 1 like the previous rows but it shows 1, 1, -2.3086. What am I doing wrong here?
This is what the iteration looks like in the loop
ans = t8 - (11543*t9)/5000 + t10 == -1929/250
The equation is correct too. I can't figure out what the problem is.
Without the second input vars, equationsToMatrix uses symvar to determine the variable list.
Using symvar directly with the last equation gives
>> i = 9;symvar(T(i-1) - 2.3086*T(i) + T(i+1) == -7.7160)
ans =
[ t10, t8, t9]
So for whatever reason, symvar produced the incorrect ordering for only the last equation (possibly because 1 < 9). To remedy the situation, pass your intended ordering using the second input
eqn = T(i-1) - 2.3086*T(i) + T(i+1) == -7.7160;
[A_10(i,i-1:i+1),b_10(i,1)] = equationsToMatrix(eqn,T(i-1:i+1));
You'll also noticed I assigned the equation to an explicit variable eqn. This is better practice than relying on ans.
Also, since you're producing a numeric array anyway, you can produce A without the Symbolic Toolbox in a number of ways. For example:
n = 10;
A = full(spdiags(ones(n,1)*[1,-2.3086,1],[-1,0,1],n,n));
A([1,end],:) = 0;

MATLAB: indexing a 3d matrix with another 3d matrix

Say I have two 3D matrices of same dimension (3x3x2):
A =
ans(:,:,1) =
0 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
ans(:,:,2) =
0 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
B =
ans(:,:,1) =
0 1 0
0 1 0
0 1 0
ans(:,:,2) =
1 0 0
1 0 0
0 0 1
I would like to index the last page (third dimension) of A where the corresponding page of B equals 1 and turn those values into 2, so that A becomes:
A =
ans(:,:,1) =
0 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
ans(:,:,2) =
2 0 0
2 0 0
0 0 2
How can I do it? Is there an easy way?
This could be one approach to set the elements in last page in the third dimension of A at places where the last page in the third dimension of B have 1's -
A(find(B(:,:,end)==1) + numel(B) - numel(B(:,:,1))) = 2
Sample run -
%// Starting input, A
A(:,:,1) =

How to revert signed distance function back to binary image?

So I used MATLAB's bwdist function to obtain the distance transform of a binary image. My question is, how do I transform a signed distance matrix back into a binary image?
D = bwdist(BW)
Specifically, is there a transform that can go back from BW -> D?
If D = bwdist(BW), how about BW0 = D<=0?
Consider the first example from the bwdist documentation:
bw = zeros(5,5); bw(2,2) = 1; bw(4,4) = 1
bw =
0 0 0 0 0
0 1 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 1 0
0 0 0 0 0
[D,IDX] = bwdist(bw)
D =
1.4142 1.0000 1.4142 2.2361 3.1623
1.0000 0 1.0000 2.0000 2.2361
1.4142 1.0000 1.4142 1.0000 1.4142
2.2361 2.0000 1.0000 0 1.0000
3.1623 2.2361 1.4142 1.0000 1.4142
To get back your binary image, you just want the points in the distance transform that are equal to zero (i.e. on a non-zero pixel in the original bw):
>> bw0 = D<=0
bw0 =
0 0 0 0 0
0 1 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 1 0
0 0 0 0 0
>> isequal(bw,bw0)
ans =
1

Probability of a number occurring in a matrix

I'm using Matlab and well it's straightforward to find the probability of an element in a matrix, but I a little unsure of how to find probability of an element in a row or column.
e.g this matrix:
X = [
1 2 4 1 8;
5 3 6 9 2;
6 2 2 3 2
];
How would I find the probability of "2" occurring in each row and column of this random matrix.
You could do the following:
X_unique = unique(X);
p_row = zeros(size(X,1),numel(X_unique));
p_col = zeros(size(X,2),numel(X_unique));
for ii = 1:size(X,1)
p_row(ii,:) = hist(X(ii,:),X_unique);
p_row(ii,:) = p_row(ii,:)/sum(p_row(ii,:));
end
for ii = 1:size(X,2)
p_col(ii,:) = hist(X(:,ii),X_unique);
p_col(ii,:) = p_col(ii,:)/sum(p_col(ii,:));
end
Now, each row of p_row contains the probability distribution of the elements of unique(X) in the corresponding row of X and each row of p_col contains the probability distribution of the elements of unique(X) in the corresponding column of X.
For example, for the given example,
X_unique =
1
2
3
4
5
6
8
9
Thus,
p_row =
0.4000 0.2000 0 0.2000 0 0 0.2000 0
0 0.2000 0.2000 0 0.2000 0.2000 0 0.2000
0 0.6000 0.2000 0 0 0.2000 0 0
p_col =
0.3333 0 0 0 0.3333 0.3333 0 0
0 0.6667 0.3333 0 0 0 0 0
0 0.3333 0 0.3333 0 0.3333 0 0
0.3333 0 0.3333 0 0 0 0 0.3333
0 0.6667 0 0 0 0 0.3333 0
Here's a simple, not-quite-Matlab-ish solution that works on non-empty bi-dimensional matrices, looking for elements with the value "2", and returning probabilities by column:
a = [1 2 4 1 8; 5 3 6 9 2; 6 2 2 3 2];
nrows = size(a,1);
ncols = size(a,2);
pc = zeros(1, ncols); % Prob. by column
% Iterate trough columns
for k = 1:ncols
n = sum(a(:,k) == 2);
pc(k) = n/nrows;
end;
You can adapt it to compute "probabilities" by row, or by other dimensions, or look for other values.
