How can I set x-variable cutoffs using a script to include or exclude points

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi there! I'm somewhat new to using MATLAB and wanted to know what commands would help me create a script like this:
I have a set of 5 data points that look like this:
x = [40 ; 43 ; 50; 52; 60]
y = [12 ; 15 ; 20; 21; 26]
I want to create a script that I can apply to any set of data such that if the difference between consecutive x-values is less than 3, only keep the data point that has a larger y-value. On the other hand, if the consecutive x-values are greater than or equal to 3, keep both points as part of the data set. I tried using a for loop and an if statement to create a script that looks like this but am unsure what should go after the difference function to keep both data points included. Likewise, how should I format the code after the else statement to account for the scenario in which the consecutive x-value difference is less than 3 and should only keep the data point with the higher y-value?
for ii = x
if diff(x)>=3
......
else
.......
end
Thanks

x = [40 ; 42; 43 ; 50; 52; 60; 70; 71 ; 73; 80];
y = [12 ; 3; 5 ; 20; 21; 26; 3; 10; 1; 15];
xy = [x y];
v = [0; diff(x)<3]';
idSt=strfind([0,v==1],[0,1])-1;
idEn=strfind([v==1,0],[1,0]);
for k=1:numel(idSt)
temp = xy(idSt(k):idEn(k),:);
[~,idMax] = max(temp(:,2));
xy(idSt(k):idEn(k),:)=repmat(temp(idMax,:),size(temp,1),1);
end
x = xy(:,1);
y = xy(:,2);
Input:
xy =
40 12
42 3
43 5
50 20
52 21
60 26
70 3
71 10
73 1
80 15
output;
xy =
40 12
40 12
40 12
52 21
52 21
60 26
71 10

In those cases, where delta x is less than 3, the highest y-value should be kept. So in the two instances you mentioned, (42, 3) should be removed since it does not satisfy delta x>=3 with respect to (40,12). Since we exclude (42,3), (43, 5) should be kept given it satisifies delta x>=3 when compared to (40,12). For the bottom data set, only (71,10) should be kept since it has the higher y-value compared to (70,3). (73,1) should be excluded since it does not satisfy the requirement of delta x >=3 when compared to (71,10).

then, the procedure is different. Thy this.
x = [40 ; 42; 43 ; 50; 52; 60; 70; 71 ; 73; 80];
y = [12 ; 3; 5 ; 20; 21; 26; 3; 10; 1; 15];
xy = [x y];
watchVar = 1;
while watchVar
for k= 2:size(xy,1)
if xy(k,1)-xy(k-1,1)<3
[~,idMax] = max(xy(k-1:k,2));
xy(k+1-idMax,:)=[];
break;
end
end
watchVar = ~(k==size(xy,1));
end
x = xy(:,1);
y = xy(:,2);
input:
xy =
40 12
42 3
43 5
50 20
52 21
60 26
70 3
71 10
73 1
80 15
output:
xy =
40 12
43 5
52 21
60 26
71 10
80 15
