How can I truncate a random generated exponentail distribution?

2 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi, I'm trying to truncate an exponential distribution generated with the random function:
for mu_curr=1:100;
mu_exp=linspace(0.002,1,100);
x=1:desired_length;
mu_curr_exp=mu_exp(curr_distr);
%% generating ISI
ISI_exp=((random('Exponential',mu_curr_exp,length(x),1)));
%% concatenating in a matrix
Y_EXP(curr_distr,1:length(x))=ISI_exp';
end
I am using this loop because I have to change the mu value 100 times. I have to truncate this so number don't go below 1e-6 and above 0.2. Do you have any ideas? I tried to use the distribution object but I don't know how to use it to perform calculations on the results. Thank you,
Carolina

I leave you an idea that can be useful, in R numbers are generated with an exponential distribution in the range you want :
n=20;%amount of values to generate
mu=0.1;%mu
R = mapminmax(exprnd(mu,1,n),1e-6,0.2)

Is this?
I am expecting the number is Y_EXP, if else, please replace Y_EXP with respective number.
Y_EXP(Y_EXP<1e-6 | Y_EXP>0.2)=0;

Use the truncate function (introduced in R2013a).
See the documentation section on pd to use it with different distributions.

Yes you can use truncate but you will create an object, and I can't perform any calculations on objects. Thank you anyway

My pleasure.
However, I disagree!
pd = makedist('Normal')
t = truncate(pd,0,inf)
y = pdf(t, (0:5:10))
produces:
y =
0.797884560802865 2.9734390294686e-06 1.53891972534128e-22
What ‘calculations’ do you want to perform with it?
See: Working with Probability Distributions and specifically Probability Distribution Objects for an extended discussion of their capabilities.
