Syntax

[u,v] = transformPointsInverse(tform,x,y)
[u,v,w] = transformPointsInverse(tform,x,y,z)
U = transformPointsInverse(tform,X)

Description

[u,v] = transformPointsInverse(tform,x,y) applies the inverse transformation of 2-D geometric transformation tform to the points specified by coordinates x and y.

example

[u,v,w] = transformPointsInverse(tform,x,y,z) applies the inverse transformation of 3-D geometric transformation tform to the points specified by coordinates x, y, and z.

U = transformPointsInverse(tform,X) applies the inverse transformation of tform to the input coordinate matrix X and returns the coordinate matrix U. transformPointsInverse maps the kth point X(k,:) to the point U(k,:).

Define a 3-by-3 geometric transformation matrix. This example specifies a matrix for an affine transformation consisting of vertical shear and horizontal stretch.

A = [1.5 0 0; 0.8 1 0; 0 0 1];

Create an affinetform2d object from the transformation matrix.

tform = affinetform2d(A);

Apply the inverse geometric transformation to a point.

Specify the packed (x,y) coordinates of five input points. The packed coordinates are stored in a 5-by-2 matrix, where the x-coordinate of each point is in the first column, and the y-coordinate of each point is in the second column.

XY = [10 15;11 32;15 34;2 7;2 10];

Define the inverse mapping function. The function accepts and returns points in packed (x,y) format.

inversefn = @(c) [c(:,1)+c(:,2),c(:,1)-c(:,2)]
inversefn = function_handle with value:
    @(c)[c(:,1)+c(:,2),c(:,1)-c(:,2)]

Create a 2-D geometric transform object, tform, that stores the inverse mapping function.

tform = geometricTransform2d(inversefn)
tform = 
  geometricTransform2d with properties:

        InverseFcn: @(c)[c(:,1)+c(:,2),c(:,1)-c(:,2)]
        ForwardFcn: []
    Dimensionality: 2

Apply the inverse geometric transform to the input points.

Specify the packed (x,y,z) coordinates of five input points. The packed coordinates are stored as a 5-by-3 matrix, where the first, second, and third columns contain the x-, y-, and z- coordinates,respectively.

XYZ = [5 25 20;10 5 25;15 10 5;20 15 10;25 20 15];

Define an inverse mapping function that accepts and returns points in packed (x,y,z) format.

inverseFcn = @(c) [c(:,1)+c(:,2),c(:,1)-c(:,2),c(:,3).^2];

Create a 3-D geometric transformation object, tform, that stores this inverse mapping function.

tform = geometricTransform3d(inverseFcn)
tform =

x-coordinates of points to be transformed, specified as an m-by-n or m-by-n-by-p numeric array. The number of dimensions of x matches the dimensionality of tform.

Data Types: single | double

y-coordinates of points to be transformed, specified as an m-by-n or m-by-n-by-p numeric array. The size of y must match the size of x.

Data Types: single | double

z-coordinates of points to be transformed, specified as an m-by-n-by-p numeric array. z is used only when tform is a 3-D geometric transformation. The size of z must match the size of x.
