Replacing row in matrix with previous row depending on condition

3 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi
Say I have a matrix:
A=[2,5,3;5,8,2;1,-2,5]
If a value in any of the rows are -2 the whole row should be replaced by the previous row.
So the result would be:
A=[2,5,3;5,8,2;5,8,1]
The matrix consists of 1 million rows, so I'm looking for the fastest method.

Here is one way:
while any(A(:)==-2)
rowToReplace = find(any(A==-2,2));
A(rowToReplace,:) = A(rowToReplace-1,:);
end
This solution could probably made faster by using only logical indices, without the find command, but I felt lazy.

Thanks alot, this one does that job in a decent amount of time. Lovely. Have a splendid weekend.

This is a little faster, in limited testing:
while any(A(:)==-2)
rowToReplace = any(A==-2,2);
A(rowToReplace,:) = A([rowToReplace(2:end); false],:);
end
The optimized version might depend on the pattern of -2's in the array.

If you have consecutive rows containing -2, you will have to repeat until all the -2 rows have been replaced if that is your goal
[a,~]=find(A==-2);
a=unique(a);
A(a,:)=A(a-1,:);
