Alternative to ginput for finding curve intersections with unevenly spaced data in MATLAB
5 次查看(过去 30 天)

Is there a better way to determine the intersection of two curves in MATLAB, other than using ginput, especially when the data points are unevenly spaced and do not include the exact intersection point? How can I handle cases where one of my datasets forms two angled lines joined together, rather than a smooth curve?

Use fminbnd or fzero,
x=sort(rand(1,12)*5);
y1=[0,1,-1*x(3:end)+3+2*x(3)];
y2=2*x-3;
f=@(z) interp1(x,y1,z)-interp1(x,y2,z) ;
xmin=fzero(f,[min(x),max(x)]); ymin=interp1(x,y1,xmin); %intersection
h=plot(x,y1,'--gx', x,y2,'--b+',xmin,ymin,'ro');
h(3).MarkerFaceColor=h(3).Color; h(3).MarkerSize=8;

Create a function using interp1 for use with fzero. For example:
yfn = @(X,Y,x) interp1(X,Y,x);
X = [1,2,3,7,8,9];
Y1 = X;
Y2 = 15-X.^1.5;
x0 = 6;
xp = fzero(@(x0)fn(x0,X,Y1,Y2,yfn),x0);
disp(xp)
yp = yfn(X,Y1,xp);
plot(X,Y1,'-o',X,Y2,'-+',xp,yp,'ks'),grid
xlabel('x'), ylabel('y')
function Z = fn(x,X,Y1,Y2,yfn)
Z = yfn(X,Y1,x)-yfn(X,Y2,x);
end

Another approach —
x = [linspace(0, 2.4) linspace(5.2, 7, 8)].'*1E-3;
y1 = [x(x<=2.4E-3)*580/2.4E-3; 500*ones(size(x(x>2.5E-3)))];
y2 = x*580/2.4E-3 - 450;
idx = find(diff(sign(y2 - y1)))
idxrng = max(1,idx) : min(numel(x),idx+1)
y2(idxrng)-y1(idxrng)
xi = interp1((y1(idxrng)-y2(idxrng)), x(idxrng), 0)
yi = interp1(x, y1, xi)
figure
plot(x, y1, '.-', DisplayName="y_1")
hold on
plot(x, y2, '.-', DisplayName="y_2")
plot(xi, yi, 'sr', DisplayName="Intersection")
hold off
grid
legend(Location='best')
This approach finds the approximate index of the two lines and then interpolates to find the intersection points of the lines.

Corrected code.
