Hello,

I have four different timeseries vectors containing velocity data from four different test runs. Since they were recorded in the field, the time between the startup of the data logger and the initial movement of the vehicle varies.

I am trying to remove this dead space in order to better compare the different runs.

I have tried adding events to the individual timeseries and then using gettsafteratevent(), but that only deletes the dead space and does not adjust the X-axis. I've also tried resampling with a new timevector, but have only had error messages with that.

Here is the image with the 4 different runs, and events placed where the run really begins:

The only other thought I had was to bring the data into arrays, delete the data that I dont need, and then reconvert to time series.

Anyone have any other ideas?

Thanks, Jay

One possibility (if you have the Signal Processing Toolbox) is to use the findpeaks function on the negative of your data. I’m not certain that would work on all your data, because even though I enlarged the image, I may not have been able to see all the variations in the deadspace area.

If some of your data don’t have any variations in the deadspace region that findpeaks could detect, another option would be to use the find function. Take a section of your data (such as the first half), and then threshold it using min and a range inequality For instance something like:

min_idx = find(y <= 1.01*min(y), 1, 'last');

to find the end of the ‘dead space’ region.

Without having your data to work with, I can’t write specific code, but these would be my initial approaches to programming the deadspace region endpoint.

Thanks. I was hoping to keep it in the timeseries format, but this is probably easier in the long run.

My pleasure.

You could probably still keep it in timeseries format, just redefine it in terms of the new data. (I haven’t used timeseries objects much, so I have little experience with them, and can’t provide specific recommendations.)
