Compare two vectors of unequal lengths to get a logical array - matlab

I need to vectorize the following code:
a = [1 2 3 2 3 1];
b = [1 2 3];
for i = 1:length(a)
for j = 1:length(b)
r(i, j) = (a(i) == b(j));
end
end
The output r should be a logical array:
1 0 0
0 1 0
0 0 1
0 1 0
0 0 1
1 0 0
The closest I can get is:
for j = 1:length(b)
r(:, j) = (a == b(j));
end
Iterating through the shorter vector is obviously more efficient as it generates fewer for iterations. The correct solution should have no for-loops whatsoever.
Is this possible in MATLAB/Octave?

Here's a simple solution using bsxfun.
bsxfun(#eq,b,a')
ans =
1 0 0
0 1 0
0 0 1
0 1 0
0 0 1
1 0 0

bsxfun(#eq, a', b)

How to crate cells contain subvectors from logical vector in MATLAB

For example I have a logial vector in MATLAB:
idx1 = [0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0]
And I want to get numbers (count each block) of such blocks: 1 1 1, i.e. such block contain N elements == 1 (N "1"). idx1 - array, and his dimension can be any, for example 3820000.
How count many blocks (sequences of ones) occur in the entire array idx1?
counts_idx = 0;
init_counts_idx = 0;
arr = 0;
for i = 1:length(idx1) -1
for kk = 1 : length(idx1) - 1
if idx1(kk + 1) == 1
init_counts_idx = init_counts_idx + 1;
arr = init_counts_idx;
else
init_counts_idx = counts_idx;
end
C = {i,arr};
end
end
I try to using cells...
You can calculate the start and end indices of each block by diff([0 idx1 0]). Then, use this information to calculate block lengths Ns. Finally express the result as a cell array using the function C = mat2cell(A,rowDist).
idx1 = [0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0];
diffs = diff([0 idx1 0]);
% find start index of the blocks
loc = find(diffs == 1);
% calc block lengths by subtracting end - start indices
Ns = find(diffs == -1) - loc;
C = mat2cell([loc' Ns'],ones(size(loc)))
4×1 cell array
{[ 4 3]}
{[ 9 3]}
{[16 6]}
{[29 3]}
If you are interested only in the number of such blocks, length(loc) will give you the answer, it is similar to bwconncomp(idx1).NumObjects.
bwconncomp(idx1).NumObjects

How to permute elements of a vector by another vector to obtain a matrix of permutations

I want to obtain all the possible permutations of one vector elements by another vector elements. For example one vector is A=[0 0 0 0] and another is B=[1 1]. I want to replace the elements of A by B to obtain all the permutations in a matrix like this [1 1 0 0; 1 0 1 0; 1 0 0 1; 0 1 1 0; 0 1 0 1; 0 0 1 1]. The length of real A is big and I should be able to choose the length of B_max and to obtain all the permutations of A with B=[1], [1 1], [1 1 1],..., B_max.
Thanks a lot
Actually, since A and B are always defined, respectively, as a vector of zeros and a vector of ones, this computation is much easier than you may think. The only constraints you should respect concerns B, which shoud not be empty and it's elements cannot be greater than or equal to the number of elements in A... because after that threshold A will become a vector of ones and calculating its permutations will be just a waste of CPU cycles.
Here is the core function of the script, which undertakes the creation of the unique permutations of 0 and 1 given the target vector X:
function p = uperms(X)
n = numel(X);
k = sum(X);
c = nchoosek(1:n,k);
m = size(c,1);
p = zeros(m,n);
p(repmat((1-m:0)',1,k) + m*c) = 1;
end
And here is the full code:
clear();
clc();
% Define the main parameter: the number of elements in A...
A_len = 4;
% Compute the elements of B accordingly...
B_len = A_len - 1;
B_seq = 1:B_len;
% Compute the possible mixtures of A and B...
X = tril(ones(A_len));
X = X(B_seq,:);
% Compute the unique permutations...
p = [];
for i = B_seq
p = [p; uperms(X(i,:).')];
end
Output for A_len = 4:
p =
1 0 0 0
0 1 0 0
0 0 1 0
0 0 0 1
1 1 0 0
1 0 1 0
1 0 0 1
0 1 1 0
0 1 0 1
0 0 1 1
1 1 1 0
1 1 0 1
1 0 1 1
0 1 1 1

Perform "outer product" of 2-D matrix and return a 3-D array in MATLAB

I would like to do an operation on a 2-D matrix which somehow looks like the outer product of a vector. I already have written some codes for this task, but it is pretty slow, so I would like to know if there is anything I can do to accelerate it.
I would like to show the code I wrote first, followed by an example to illustrate the task I wanted to do.
My code, version row-by-row
function B = outer2D(A)
B = zeros(size(A,1),size(A,2),size(A,2)); %Pre-allocate the output array
for J = 1 : size(A,1)
B(J,:,:) = transpose(A(J,:))*A(J,:); %Perform outer product on each row of A and assign to the J-th layer of B
end
end
Using the matrix A = randn(30000,20) as the input for testing, it spends 0.317 sec.
My code, version page-by-page
function B = outer2D(A)
B = zeros(size(A,1),size(A,2),size(A,2)); %Pre-allocate the output array
for J = 1 : size(A,2)
B(:,:,J) = repmat(A(:,J),1,size(A,2)).*A; %Evaluate B page-by-page
end
end
Using the matrix A = randn(30000,20) as the input for testing, it spends 0.146 sec.
Example 1
A = [3 0; 1 1; 1 0; -1 1; 0 -2]; %A is the input matrix.
B = outer2D(A);
disp(B)
Then I would expect
(:,:,1) =
9 0
1 1
1 0
1 -1
0 0
(:,:,2) =
0 0
1 1
0 0
-1 1
0 4
The first row of B, [9 0; 0 0], is the outer product of [3 0],
i.e. [3; 0]*[3 0] = [9 0; 0 0].
The second row of B, [1 1; 1 1], is the outer product of [1 1],
i.e. [1; 1]*[1 1] = [1 1; 1 1].
The third row of B, [1 0; 0 0], is the outer product of [1 0],
i.e. [1; 0]*[1 0] = [1 0; 0 0].
And the same for the remaining rows.
Example 2
A =
0 -1 -2
0 1 0
-3 0 2
0 0 0
1 0 0
B = outer2D(A)
disp(B)
Then, similar to the example 1, the expected output is
(:,:,1) =
0 0 0
0 0 0
9 0 -6
0 0 0
1 0 0
(:,:,2) =
0 1 2
0 1 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
(:,:,3) =
0 2 4
0 0 0
-6 0 4
0 0 0
0 0 0
Because the real input in my project is like in the size of 30000 × 2000 and this task is to be performed for many times. So the acceleration of this task is quite essential for me.
I am thinking of eliminating the for-loop in the function. May I have some opinions on this problem?
With auto expansion:
function B = outer2D(A)
B=permute(permute(A,[3 1 2]).*A',[2 3 1]);
end
Without auto expansion:
function B = outer2Dold(A)
B=permute(bsxfun(#times,permute(A,[3 1 2]),A'),[2 3 1]);
end
Outer products are not possible in the matlab language.

Generate derived matrix from index vector in matlab

Consider an index vector consisting of ones and zeros:
I=[0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0];
How can I easily generate the following matrix in matlab:
J=[0 2;
1 1;
0 1;
1 2;
0 3];
Use diff:
I = [0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0];
d = diff(I);
ind = [1 find(d~=0)+1]; %// starting index of each new value
rep = diff([ind numel(I)+1]); %// number of repetitions of each new value
J = [ I(ind).' rep.' ];
Using strfind for a slightly bigger example -
I =[1 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0]
zero_pos = ['0' num2str(bsxfun(#eq,I,0),'%1d') '0']
ind3 = [ strfind(zero_pos,'01') ; strfind(zero_pos,'10')]
counts = diff(ind3(:))
var = zeros(numel(counts),1);
var(2:2:end)=1;
J = [var counts];
if ind3(1,1)-1>0
J = [1 ind3(1,1)-1;J];
end
Output
J =
1 2
0 2
1 1
0 1
1 2
0 3
1 4
0 2

Is there any function in MATLAB for changing the form of a matrix?

I have to get the unknown matrix by changing the form of a known matrix considering the following rules:
H = [-P'|I] %'
G = [I|P]
where
H is a known matrix
G is an unknown matrix which has to be calculated
I is the identity matrix
So for example, if we had a matrix,
H = [1 1 1 1 0 0;
0 0 1 1 0 1;
1 0 0 1 1 0]
its form has to be changed to
H = [1 1 1 1 0 0;
0 1 1 0 1 0;
1 1 0 0 0 1]
So
-P' = [1 1 1;
0 1 0;
1 1 0]
and in case of binary matrices -P = P.
Therefore
G = [1 0 0 1 1 1;
0 1 0 0 1 0;
0 0 1 1 1 0]
I know how to solve it on paper by performing basic row operations but haven't figured out how to solve it using MATLAB yet.
What is the method for solving the given problem?
If the order of columns in -P' doesn't matter, here's one solution using the function ISMEMBER:
>> H = [1 1 1 1 0 0; 0 0 1 1 0 1; 1 0 0 1 1 0]; %# From above
>> pColumns = ~ismember(H',eye(3),'rows') %'# Find indices of columns that
%# are not equal to rows
pColumns = %# of the identity matrix
1
0
1
1
0
0
>> P = -H(:,pColumns)' %'# Find P
P =
-1 0 -1
-1 -1 0
-1 -1 -1
>> G = logical([eye(3) P]) %# Create the binary matrix G
G =
1 0 0 1 0 1
0 1 0 1 1 0
0 0 1 1 1 1
NOTE: This solution will work properly for integer or binary values in H. If H has floating-point values, you will likely run into an issue with floating-point comparisons when using ISMEMBER (see here and here for more discussion of this issue).
