Calculate median values of slices of array associated with histogram bins

7 次查看(过去 30 天)
I have an array (array1) which I want to put into histogram bins. I have a second array (array2) which is the same length.
I can sum the values of array2 in each bin with this:
[count, edges, idx] = histcounts(array1,edges);
binsums = accumarray(idx,array2);
But how can I calculate the median values of array2 in each bin?

I would use another accumarray call:
binmedians = accumarray(idx+1, (1:numel(idx)).', [], @(x)median(array2(x)))
Creating data and correcting for ‘idx’ having 0 for some elements (making them inappropriate index values) —
array1 = randn(1E+3,1);
array2 = randn(1E+3,1);
edges = 1:9;
[count, edges, idx] = histcounts(array1,edges);
binsums = accumarray(idx+1,array2)
binsums = 4×1
-13.0331 20.8357 -1.5279 -2.0722
binmedians = accumarray(idx+1, (1:numel(idx)).', [], @(x)median(array2(x)))
binmedians = 4×1
-0.0237 0.2213 0.1113 -1.0361
.

Thank you very much. Some of the values going into the median ar NaNs, but I can handle them.

As always, my pleasure!
Use the missingflag option that works best for you.
One such:
binmedians = accumarray(idx+1, (1:numel(idx)).', [], @(x)median(array2(x),'omitmissing'))
There are several others.

I would use the groupsummary function with the grouping information from the idx variable.
If all you want is the bin numbers, you could also use the discretize function instead of histcounts.
