Minimum value in sub Matrix
显示 更早的评论
I have a 4 dimensional matrix that represents an array of arrays and I need to find the minimum value and its index in each of the sub arrays. IE I need to call min(example(:)) on example(:,:,1,1), example(:,:,1,2)... example(:,:,1,m), example(:,:,2,1)... example(:,:,2,m)... example(:,:,n,m). Any help with this would be much appreciated.

X = [4D array];
Y = min(min(X,[],1),[],2);
Here is a simple example, with a 3D array:
>> X = reshape(1:24, [2,3,4])
X(:,:,1) =
1 3 5
2 4 6
X(:,:,2) =
7 9 11
8 10 12
X(:,:,3) =
13 15 17
14 16 18
X(:,:,4) =
19 21 23
20 22 24
>> Y = min(min(X,[],1),[],2)
Y(:,:,1) =
1
Y(:,:,2) =
7
Y(:,:,3) =
13
Y(:,:,4) =
19
You can see then it has calculated the minimum of the first two dimensions only, leaving the third dimension remaining. This works for 4D arrays too. If you do not want the leading scalar-dimensions to remain, simply use squeeze to remove them:
>> squeeze(Y)
ans =
1
7
13
19

This is possible, but more complicated. Here is an example for a 3D array:
>> X = reshape(randperm(24), [2,3,4])
X(:,:,1) =
7 21 12
20 6 24
X(:,:,2) =
14 3 8
22 10 15
X(:,:,3) =
19 5 16
11 4 1
X(:,:,4) =
13 23 18
2 17 9
>> [Y,idy] = min(X,[],1);
>> [Z,idz] = min(Y,[],2);
>> N = size(X,3);
>> idy(sub2ind(size(idy),ones(N,1),squeeze(idz),(1:N)')) % row indices
ans =
2
1
2
2
>> squeeze(idz) % column indices
ans =
2
2
3
1
>> squeeze(Z) % the minimum values
ans =
6
3
1
2
This can be extended to work with 4D arrays... with some effort. It might be easier to perform this operation independently for each slice of the fourth dimension.
