So I have 2d matrix and I want to extract every fifth value from the second column.
I know how to get all the values from the second column -
var = myMatrix(:,2);
But how can I only select every fifth value instead of all the values
Depending on exactly what "every fifth value" means, I think that what you want is:
var = myMatrix(5:5:end, 2);
which returns
var = [myMatrix(5,2); myMatrix(10,2); ...]
Leaving aside the mistake that sans481 has already pointed out to you, you would use array subscript triples. For example, if your array A was 8x8 then
A(2,2:3:8)
would pick out row 2, columns 2,3,8, only.

I have a 1x1 structure called imu_data.txyzrxyz1. It has one field called txyzrxyz1 and the value is 4877x7 double. I just want to "copy and paste" row 62 into row 63 (double up that row) so that the structure now becomes a 4878x7 structure. I've tried the following, with other versions without success:
extra_63 = imu_data.txyzrxyz1(63,:);
imu_data2.txyzrxyz1 = [{imu_data.txyzrxyz1(1:62,:) extra_63 imu_data.txyzrxyz1(63:end,:)}]
Thanks
You can index the row to duplicate twice while matrix indexing:
row_to_duplicate = 63;
yourdata = rand(100,10);
yourstruct.data = yourdata;
yourstruct.data = yourstruct.data([1:row_to_duplicate, row_to_duplicate:end],:)
So in case of 63, 1:row_to_duplicate will create a column vector from 1:63, and row_to_duplicate:end will create a column vector from 63:100 in this example. When combining these, 63 will occur twice, hence that row is duplicated.
You were almost there, you only had to get rid of the {}'s and put the data in the right orientation by using ; instead of a space between matrix entries to vertically concatenate instead of horizontally:
extra_63 = imu_data.txyzrxyz1(63,:);
imu_data2.txyzrxyz1 = [imu_data.txyzrxyz1(1:62,:); extra_63; imu_data.txyzrxyz1(63:end,:)]
I have a 29736 x 6 table, which is referred to as table_fault_test_data. It has 6 columns, with names wind_direction, wind_speed, air_temperature, air_pressure, density_hubheight and Fault_Condition respectively. What I want to do is to label the data in the Fault_Condition (last table column with either a 1 or a 0 value, depending on the values in the other columns.
I would like to do the following checks (For eg.)
If wind_direction value(column_1) is below 0.0040 and above 359.9940, label 6 th column entry corresponding to the respective row of the table as a 1, else label as 0.
Do this for the entire table. Similarly, do this check for others
like air_temperature, air_pressure and so on. I know that if-else
will be used for these checks. But, I am really confused as to how I
can do this for the whole table and add the corresponding value to
the 6 th column (Maybe using a loop or something).
Any help in this
regard would be highly appreciated. Many Thanks!
EDIT:
Further clarification: I have a 29736 x 6 table named table_fault_test_data . I want to add values to the 6 th column of table based on conditions as below:-
for i = 1:29736 % Iterating over the whole table row by row
if(1st column value <x | 1st column value > y)
% Add 0 to the Corresponding element of 6 th column i.e. table_fault_test_data(i,6)
elseif (2nd column value <x | 2nd column value > y)
% Add 0 to the Corresponding element of 6 th column i.e. table_fault_test_data(i,6)
elseif ... do this for other cases as well
else
% Add 1 to the Corresponding element of 6 th column i.e. table_fault_test_data(i,6)
This is the essence of my requirements. I hope this helps in understanding the question better.
You can use logical indexing, which is supported also for tables (for loops should be avoided, if possible). For example, suppose you want to implement the first condition, and also suppose your x and y are known; also, let us assume your table is called t
logicalIndecesFirstCondition = t{:,1} < x | t{:,2} >y
and then you could refer to the rows which verify this condition using logical indexing (please refer to logical indexing
E.g.:
t{logicalIndecesFirstCondition , 6} = t{logicalIndecesFirstCondition , 6} + 1.0;
This would add 1.0 to the 6th column, for the rows for which the logical condition is true
Suppose that I have a string of values corresponding to the height of a group of people
height_str ={'1.76000000000000';
'1.55000000000000';
'1.61000000000000';
'1.71000000000000';
'1.74000000000000';
'1.79000000000000';
'1.74000000000000';
'1.86000000000000';
'1.72000000000000';
'1.82000000000000';
'1.72000000000000';
'1.63000000000000'}
and a single height value.
height_val = 177;
I would like to find the indices of the people that are in the range height_val +- 3cm.
To find the exact match I would do like this
[idx_height,~]=find(ismember(cell2mat(height_str),height_val/100));
How can I include the matches in the previous range (174-180)?
idx_height should be = [1 5 6 7]
You can convert you strings into an numeric array (as #Divakar mentioned) by
height = str2num(char(height_str))*100; % in cm
Then just
idx_height = find(height>=height_val-3 & height<=height_val+3);
Assuming that the precision of heights stays at 0.01cm, you can use a combination of str2double and ismember for a one-liner -
idx_height = find(ismember(str2double(height_str)*100,[height_val-3:height_val+3]))
The magic with str2double is that it works directly with cell arrays to get us a numeric array without resorting to a combined effort of converting that cell array to a char array and then to a numeric array.
After the use of str2double, we can use ismember as you tried in your problem to get us the matches as a logical array, whose indices are picked up with find. That's the whole story really.
Late addition, but for binning my first choice would be to go with bsxfun and logical operations:
idx_height = find(bsxfun(#le,str2double(height_str)*100,height_val+3) & ...
bsxfun(#ge,str2double(height_str)*100,height_val-3))
In my cell array test = cell(1,2,20,14); I want to find numeric values in the subset test(:,1,1,1).
For example test(:,:,1,1) looks like this:
>> test(:,:,1,1)
ans =
[ 0] [0.1000] [57]
[0.9000] [0.9500] [73]
I want to find the index of the cell containing 0.9 in the first column, so I can access the third column (in this case value 73). I tried:
find(test{:,:,1,1} == 0.9) which gives:
Error using == Too many input arguments..
How can I find the respective index?
Thanks.
Try this to access that third column value directly -
cell2mat(test(vertcat(test{:,1,1,1})==0.9,3,1,1))
Edit 1: If you would like to test out for match w.r.t. the first two columns of test's subset, use this -
v1 = reshape(vertcat(test{:,[1 2],1,1}),[],2)
cell2mat(test(ismember(v1,[0.9 0.95],'rows'),3,1,1))
Just add brackets [] around test{:,:,1,1}. This wraps the different cell values together to one vector/matrix.
Like this:
[index1, index2] = find([test{:,:,1,1}] == 0.9)
We've got an array of values, and we would like to create another array whose values are not in the first one.
Example:
load('internet.mat')
The first column contains the values in MBs, we have thought in something like:
MB_no = setdiff(v, internet(:,1))
where v is a 0 vector whose length equals to the number of rows in internet.mat. But it just doesn't work.
So, how do we do this?
You need to specify the range of possible values to define what values are not in internet . Say the range is v = 1:10 then setdiff(v,internet(:,1)) will give you the values in 1:10 that are not in the first column of internet.
It seems as if you don't want the first column.
You can simply do:
MB_no=internet(:,2:end);
assuming internet(:,1) has only positive integers and you wish to find which are the integers in [1,...,max( internet(:,1) )] that do not appear in that range you can simply do
app = [];
app( internet(:,1) ) = 1;
MB_no = find( app == 0 );
This is somewhat like bucket sort.
