Alternative shorter method to permute and reshape a multidimensional-array - arrays

I have the following multidimensional array:
a(:,:,1) =
11 12 13
21 22 23
a(:,:,2) =
21 22 23
31 32 33
a(:,:,3) =
31 32 33
41 42 43
The end result looks as follows:
e =
11 21 31
12 22 32
13 23 33
21 31 41
22 32 42
23 33 43
In order to obtain array e, I did the following:
b=permute(a,[2,1,3])
c=reshape(b,1,6,[])
d=permute(c,[2,1,3])
Is there a cleaner or more elegant way of achieving the same result?

Here permute used once:
b = permute(a,[2 1 3]);
result = reshape(b, [], 3)

You can do it like the following:
reshape([a(:,:,1);a(:,:,2);a(:,:,3)].',6,3)

Create matrix of some repeating numbers

EN = 10;
etable = [1,2,3,4,5,6;
4,5,6,7,8,9;
7,8,9,10,11,12;
10,11,12,13,14,15;
13,14,15,16,17,18;
16,17,18,19,20,21;
19,20,21,22,23,24;
22,23,24,25,26,27;
25,26,27,28,29,30;
28,29,30,31,32,33];
Is it possible to make a for loop in which I just change the EN value and it automatically creates etable? Because I have to make EN 50 so it'll not be good to write 50 lines in etable.
I tried in this way:
EN = 10;
c = 1:EN;
nodes = zeros(size(c',1),2);
for i = 1:length(c)
nodes(i,1) = i;
nodes(i,2) = i+1;
end
etable = zeros(size(c',1),6);
for i = 1:size(nodes,1)
etable(i,1) = 2*nodes(i,1)-1;
etable(i,2) = 2*nodes(i,1);
etable(i,3) = 2*nodes(i,1)+1;
etable(i,4) = 2*nodes(i,2);
etable(i,5) = 2*nodes(i,2)+1;
etable(i,6) = 2*nodes(i,2)+2;
end
You can use implicit expansion implicitly (introduced in MATLAB R2016b) or explicitly by using MATLAB's bsxfun to create that matrix:
% Parameters
EN = 10;
n = 6;
step = 3;
% Matrix (implict expansion, MATLAB >= R2016b)
etable = (0:step:EN*step-1).' + (1:n)
% Matrix (bsxfun, MATLAB < R2016b)
etable_legacy = bsxfun(#plus, (0:step:EN*step-1).', (1:n))
For the given parameter set, the outputs are:
etable =
1 2 3 4 5 6
4 5 6 7 8 9
7 8 9 10 11 12
10 11 12 13 14 15
13 14 15 16 17 18
16 17 18 19 20 21
19 20 21 22 23 24
22 23 24 25 26 27
25 26 27 28 29 30
28 29 30 31 32 33
etable_legacy =
1 2 3 4 5 6
4 5 6 7 8 9
7 8 9 10 11 12
10 11 12 13 14 15
13 14 15 16 17 18
16 17 18 19 20 21
19 20 21 22 23 24
22 23 24 25 26 27
25 26 27 28 29 30
28 29 30 31 32 33
You can change EN (number of rows), the "number of columns" n and/or the "step between rows" step.
Hope that helps.

2D matrix to 3D matrix with row to [row, col] mapping

I have a 2D matrix with in the 1st dimension different channels, and in the 2nd dimension time samples. I want to rearrange this to a 3D matrix, with in the 1st and 2nd dimension channels, and in the 3rd time samples.
The channels have to mapped according to a certain mapping. Right now I am using a for-loop to do so, but what would be a no-loop solution?
N_samples = 1000;
N_channels = 64;
channel_mapping = reshape(1:64, [8 8]).';
% Results in mapping: (can also be random)
% 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
% 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
% 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24
% 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32
% 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40
% 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48
% 49 50 51 52 53 55 55 56
% 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64
data = rand(N_channels, N_samples);
data_grid = NaN(8,8, N_samples);
for k = 1:N_samples
tmp = data(:, k);
data_grid(:, :, k) = tmp(channel_mapping);
end
You can do it in one go as follows:
data_grid = reshape(data(channel_mapping, :), 8, 8, []);

Data field shifting through a vector of data in matlab

I need to create a data field that will go through a vector. Data field is constant length, and it is going through the data vector shifting data field with data field length. I need the mean value of that field (A vector) that corresponds to a mean value of another field (B vector).
Example:
A=[1 5 7 8 9 10 11 13 15 18 19 25 28 30 35 40 45 48 50 51];
B=[2 4 8 9 12 15 16 18 19 20 25 27 30 35 39 40 45 48 50 55];
I want to do next:
A=[{1 5 7 8 9} 10 11 13 15 18 19 25 28 30 35 40 45 48 50 51];
B=[{2 4 8 9 12} 15 16 18 19 20 25 27 30 35 39 40 45 48 50 55];
I want to take data from field of 5 points and get mean value. And then shift whole data field with data field length.
A=[1 5 7 8 9 {10 11 13 15 18} 19 25 28 30 35 40 45 48 50 51];
B=[2 4 8 9 12 {15 16 18 19 20} 25 27 30 35 39 40 45 48 50 55];
I need two vectors, C and D with mean values of this method.
C=[6 13.4 27.4 45.2];
D=[7 17.6 31.2 47.6];
I started something with
n = length(A);
for k = 1:n
....
but nothing I tried worked.
reshape the vector into a 5-row matrix and then compute the mean of each column:
C = mean(reshape(A,5,[]),1);
D = mean(reshape(B,5,[]),1)

Matlab: reshape 3-dimensional array into 2-dimensional array

I have a 3x3x2000 array of rotation matrices that I need to transform into a 2000x9 array.
I think I have to use a combination of permute() and reshape(), but I don't get the correct output order.
This is what I need:
First row of 3x3 array needs to be columns 1:3 in the output
Second row of 3x3 array needs to be columns 4:6 in the output
Third row of 3x3 array needs to be columns 7:9 in the output
I have tried all possible combinations of numbers 1 2 3 in the following code:
out1 = permute(input, [2 3 1]);
out2 = reshape(out1, [2000 9]);
But I always end up with the wrong order. Any tips for a Matlab newbie?
How about a simple for-loop?
for i=1:size(myinput,3)
myoutput(i,:)=[myinput(1,:,i) myinput(2,:,i) myinput(3,:,i)];
% or
% myoutput(i,:)=reshape(myinput(:,:,i),[],9);
end
It's not simple as using permute and reshape, but it is transparent and easier for debugging. Once everything in your program runs perfectly, you can consider to rewrite such for-loops in your code...
You had a mix-up in your permute
a = reshape(1:9*6, 3, 3, []);
a is a 3x3x6 matrix, each
a(:,:,i) = 9*(i-1) + [1 4 7
2 5 8
3 6 9];
So
out1 = permute(a, [3,1,2]);
out2 = reshape(out1, [], 9);
Or in one line
out3 = reshape(permute(a, [3,1,2]), [], 9);
So
out2 = out3 =
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18
19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27
28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36
37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45
46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54

How can i create an array and auto populate the elements in perl

lets say i have an array :
#time = qw(
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50
);
but the values 1..50 depend on the size of an array #arr
so instead of declaring #time manually, how can i populate #time with 1 .. #arr, and possibly have other TYPES of elements like TIME in seconds, etc.
This will initialise #time with the values from 1 to $#arr:
#time = (1..$#arr);
I suspect you probably want 0 .. $#arr rather than 1 .. $#arr?
and possibly have other TYPES of elements like TIME in seconds, etc.
I'm not quite sure what you mean here, but you should have a look at map for one convenient way of generating a list of values by transforming another list. That might be what you're after.
#time = 1 .. #arr;
If you want to do something with each number, like multiply them by 2, you can use map:
#time = map { 2 * $_ } 1 .. #arr;
