Removing invalid results knowing the trend

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hello,
I have a matrix, which is an output from angle measurement from a motor. So, over time the angle increases over time until it reaches a maximum (360 i.e) and then stops or descreases.
. For instance:
[0 10 -1 40 50 0 60 10 90 0 ]
How can I remove the invalid values, that in that example are the -1 , second and third '0's and the second 10 ?
Thank you

Your rule should produce a logical vector where True indicates data that should be removed and False indicates data that should be retained. Then you have 2 options.
data(idx) = NaN; % replace the unwanted values with NaN
% or
data(idx) = []; %remove the unwanted values.
The benefit of the first method is that the index of each data point within the vector is retained. So data(4) will always be 40 before and after you replace the unwanted data.

From what you say, it sounds like your valid rule is that if the reported angle is invalid if it is less than the previous value.
A simple slow way to test for this is:
ang = [0 10 -1 40 50 0 60 10 90 0 ];
% find ang(n) < ang(n-1) and remove
for ii = numel(ang):-1:2
if ang(ii) < ang(ii-1)
ang(ii) = [];
end
end
disp(ang)
output: 0 10 40 50 60 90

I think this the most elegant choice. thank you!
@adam is it possible to save the indexes of the nonvalid values ?

Sure. The indices are computed with in the square brackets above. It assumes the first value is never a nonvalid value. Any following value is nonvalid if it's less than the previous value as Ted explained.
[false,diff(ang)<=0]
