intersect() returns unplausible values
显示 更早的评论
I am trying to return the coordinates of the intersection of two lines (please see below plot). I need the x- and y-values of the point of intersection. Code looks like this:
%Arbeitspunkt Daten
%Mm = blue line
%Mld = red dashed line
if Mld > 0
[M_ap, s_ap] = intersect(Mm, Mld);
app.LabelM_ap.Visible = 'on';
app.LabelM_ap.Text = sprintf('%.1f', M_ap);
else
app.LabelM_ap.Visible = 'off';
end
However, I set a breakpoint at the last "end" and reviewed the workspace variables M_ap and s_ap. For those two variables I do not get any values written back from intersect() function, even tho there is a intersection between these two lines at roughly ~95%
Mm and Mld are both 1x100000 double.
Does intersect()-function have trouble processing double format? Is there a way to integrate this differently?
Thanks in advance!

I think you may be misunderstanding the usage of MATLAB's intersect function. It finds the set intersection (elements in common) between two collections of values. It looks like you may be looking for the intersection between two piecewise linear functions, specified by your data vectors Mm and Mld along with whatever the corresponding "x" values that go along with these vectors.
In general you would have to test to see each segment of Mm to see if it crosses (geometrically intersects) any segment of Mld, and if so where the line segments have the same value (the intersection point). I haven't tried it but it looks like this recent File Exchange entry might do what you are looking for: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/26014-finding-zeros-and-intersections by @Patrick might do what you are looking for.
Note in general you should cover the possibility that their are no intersections or more than one.

I see that by the time I posted this you had gotten some similar information from @Image Analyst

I'm glad you got things working. Sorry my File Exchange suggestion didn't work, I hadn't tried it out, but the description sounded promising. Good though that you were able to find another one that worked.

That's not what intersect does.
C = intersect(A,B) returns the data common to both A and B, with no repetitions. C is in sorted order.
If you want to find where two curves cross you'll have to use a different method. And it depends if you want to do it numerically (nearest actual index) or analytically (exact, but interpolated, index location)
