Consider two Matlab vectors A=[1 2 3 4 5] B=[6 7 8 9 10];
I would like your advise to write a Matlab matrix C of size 32x5 where each row has :
as first element A(1) or B(1)
as second element A(2) or B(2)
as third element A(3) or B(3)
as fourth element A(4) or B(4)
as fifth element A(5) or B(5)
C should not contain equal rows. 32 comes from 2^5, where 5 is the length of A and B.
C=[1 2 3 4 5; %all elements from A (1 row)
6 2 3 4 5; %one element from B (5 rows)
1 7 3 4 5;
1 2 8 4 5;
1 2 3 9 5;
1 2 3 4 10;
6 7 3 4 5; %two elements from B (10 rows)
... ;
6 7 8 4 5; %three elements from B (10 rows)
... ;
6 7 8 9 5; %four elements from B (5 rows)]
... ;
6 7 8 9 10; %all elements from B (1 row)]
I could write down C manually, but I would like to know if there is a faster way to build it.
Similar approach as my answer to your previous question:
A = [1 2 3 4 5];
B = [6 7 8 9 10];
N = numel(A);
t = dec2bin(0:2^N-1)-'0';
[~, ind_sort] = sortrows([sum(t,2) -t]);
t = t(ind_sort, :);
AB = [A B];
ind_AB = t*N + (1:N); % or bsxfun(#plus, t*N, 1:N) in old Matlab versions
result = AB(ind_AB);

Question 1: I have a 1x15 array, comprising of positive integers and negative integers. I wish to implement a MATLAB code which keeps all positive integers and skips the cells with negative contents.
I have tried the following:
X = [1 2 3 4 5 -10 1 -5 4 6 8 9 2 4 -2];
[r c] = size(X);
for i=1:r
for j=1:c
if X(i,j)<0
X(i,j)=X(i,j+1)
end
end
end
The output should be:
X_new = [1 2 3 4 5 1 4 6 8 9 2 4]
How do I do this?
Question 2:
X = [1 2 3 4 5 -10 1 -5 4 6 8 9 2 4 -2]
Y = [5 3 8 9 4 5 6 7 4 7 9 5 2 1 4]
From Question 1,
X_new = [1 2 3 4 5 1 4 6 8 9 2 4]
I need to delete the corresponding values in Y so that:
Y_new = [5 3 8 9 4 6 4 7 9 5 2 1]
How do I perform this?
In MATLAB, manipulating arrays and matrices can be done much easier than for-loop solutions,
in your task, can do find and delete negative value in the array, simply, as follows:
Idx_neg = X < 0; % finding X indices corresponding to negative elements
X ( Idx_neg ) = []; % removing elements using [] operator
Y ( Idx_neg ) = []; % removing corresponding elements in Y array
>> A = [ 1 2 3 3 4 5 5 6 7 7 8 9 ];
>>
>> B = reshape(A, 2, 2, 3)
B(:,:,1) =
1 3
2 3
B(:,:,2) =
4 5
5 6
B(:,:,3) =
7 8
7 9
Since reshape can only change the size of the given array in the way of preserving the linear indices, however I would like to reshape the array along the reverse dimensions.
For example, convert A into
>> C = reverse-reshape(A, 2, 2, 3) % not required to be only one function
C(:,:,1) =
1 3
5 7
C(:,:,2) =
2 4
6 8
C(:,:,3) =
3 5
7 9
Is there any better method than writing loops and fill numbers one by one in version R2017b?
You would first reshape with the dimensions in reverse order, then swap the first and third dimensions with permute to reorder the elements so that they are populated in reverse order:
>> B = permute(reshape(A, 3, 2, 2), [3 2 1])
B(:,:,1) =
1 3
5 7
B(:,:,2) =
2 4
6 8
B(:,:,3) =
3 5
7 9
To do this in general independent of the matrix dimensions and assuming it is a 3D matrix, declare an array called dims that contains the output desired matrix size, reverse the elements and supply this into reshape:
dims = [2 2 3];
B = permute(reshape(A, fliplr(dims)), [3 2 1]);
fliplr reverses the elements in a matrix horizontally.
I'm having trouble in looking for an element in a specific.
I have the array
A = [ 1 2 3 7 2 ; 2 8 5 7 2; 1 9 8 4 1; 8 7 2 10 9; 10 9 4 3 8]
I just want to get the index of A(3,4) for the element of 4. However my code spits out the two locations of the element 4, which is A(5,3) and A(3,4).
I used [row, col] = find(E==4)
Use
[row, col] = find(E==4, 1)
The second parameter is the number of elements you want to find. Find more details at https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/find.html
Matlab searches a matrix in column-by-column order. If you want to find the first element by rows, you could transpose E before calling find. But you need to swap the resulting indices then:
[col, row] = find(E'==4, 1)
Here's a lengthier, iterative way to find the first index:
A = [ 1 2 3 7 2 ;...
2 8 5 7 2;...
1 9 8 4 1;...
8 7 2 10 9;...
10 9 4 3 8];
[a,b] = size(A);
for i = 1:a
for j = 1:b
if A(i,j) == 4
break
end
end
if A(i,j) == 4
break
end
end
index = [i,j]
It returned [3, 4] for me.
Suppose I have the following array:
x = [a b
c d
e f
g h
i j];
I want to "swipe a window of two rows" progressively (one row at a time) along the array to generate the following array:
y = [a b c d e f g h
c d e f g h i j];
What is the most efficient way to do this? I don't want to use cellfun or arrayfun or for loops.
im2col is going to be your best bet here if you have the Image Processing Toolbox.
x = [1 2
3 4
5 6
7 8];
im2col(x.', [1 2])
% 1 2 3 4 5 6
% 3 4 5 6 7 8
If you don't have the Image Processing Toolbox, you can also easily do this with built-ins.
reshape(permute(cat(3, x(1:end-1,:), x(2:end,:)), [3 2 1]), 2, [])
% 1 2 3 4 5 6
% 3 4 5 6 7 8
This combines the all rows with the next row by concatenating a row-shifted version along the third dimension. Then we use permute to shift the dimensions around and then we reshape it to be the desired size.
If you don't have the Image Processing Toolbox, you can do this using simple indexing:
x =
1 2
3 4
5 6
7 8
9 10
y = x.'; %% Transpose it, for simplicity
z = [y(1:end-2); y(3:end)] %% Take elements 1:end-2 and 3:end and concatenate them
z =
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
You can do the transposing and reshaping in a simple step (see Suever's edit), but the above might be easier to read, understand and debug for beginners.
Here's an approach to solve it for a generic case of selecting L rows per window -
[m,n] = size(x) % Store size
% Extend rows by indexing into them with a progressive array of indices
x_ext = x(bsxfun(#plus,(1:L)',0:m-L),:);
% Split the first dim at L into two dims, out of which "push" back the
% second dim thus created as the last dim. This would bring in the columns
% as the second dimension. Then, using linear indexing reshape into the
% desired shape of L rows for output.
out = reshape(permute(reshape(x_ext,L,[],n),[1,3,2]),L,[])
Sample run -
x = % Input array
9 1
3 1
7 5
7 8
4 9
6 2
L = % Window length
3
out =
9 1 3 1 7 5 7 8
3 1 7 5 7 8 4 9
7 5 7 8 4 9 6 2
How can I remove elements in a matrix, that aren't all in a straight line, without going through a row at a time in a for loop?
Example:
[1 7 3 4;
1 4 4 6;
2 7 8 9]
Given a vector (e.g. [2,4,3]) How could I remove the elements in each row (where each number in the vector corresponds to the column number) without going through each row at a time and removing each element?
The example output would be:
[1 3 4;
1 4 4;
2 7 9]
It can be done using linear indexing at follows. Note that it's better to work down columns (because of Matlab's column-major order), which implies transposing at the beginning and at the end:
A = [ 1 7 3 4
1 4 4 6
2 7 8 9 ];
v = [2 4 3]; %// the number of elements of v must equal the number of rows of A
B = A.'; %'// transpose to work down columns
[m, n] = size(B);
ind = v + (0:n-1)*m; %// linear index of elements to be removed
B(ind) = []; %// remove those elements. Returns a vector
B = reshape(B, m-1, []).'; %'// reshape that vector into a matrix, and transpose back
Here's one approach using bsxfun and permute to solve for a 3D array case, assuming you want to remove indexed elements per row across all 3D slices -
%// Inputs
A = randi(9,3,4,3)
idx = [2 4 3]
%// Get size of input array, A
[M,N,P] = size(A)
%// Permute A to bring the columns as the first dimension
Ap = permute(A,[2 1 3])
%// Per 3D slice offset linear indices
offset = bsxfun(#plus,[0:M-1]'*N,[0:P-1]*M*N) %//'
%// Get 3D array linear indices and remove those from permuted array
Ap(bsxfun(#plus,idx(:),offset)) = []
%// Permute back to get the desired output
out = permute(reshape(Ap,3,3,3),[2 1 3])
Sample run -
>> A
A(:,:,1) =
4 4 1 4
2 9 7 5
5 9 3 9
A(:,:,2) =
4 7 7 2
9 6 6 9
3 5 2 2
A(:,:,3) =
1 7 5 8
6 2 9 6
8 4 2 4
>> out
out(:,:,1) =
4 1 4
2 9 7
5 9 9
out(:,:,2) =
4 7 2
9 6 6
3 5 2
out(:,:,3) =
1 5 8
6 2 9
8 4 4
