Area under curve of data points (no function) with x and y boundary

4 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hello, how can I compute the area under a curve (see green area) of data points with a x and a y boundary? The x boundary = 70 and y=0.05. I tried trapz but I don't know how to use this with an x and an y boundary. The curve is made up of data points imported from excel:
x= xlsread(datafile, 'x-axis', 'B5:MI5');
y=xmid = xlsread(datafile, 'y-axis', 'B5:MI5');
area = trapz(x,y) %this gives the whole area under the red curve, but I only want the green area
I hope someone can help me, thanks!

Something like this
mask = x > 70;
xv = x(mask);
yv = y(mask);
trapz(xv, yv-0.05); % if all the points are above x-axis then just subtracting 0.05 is enough.

I modified it a bit, and I think this works better in general:
mask = x >= 70;
xv = x(mask);
yv = y(mask);
trapz(xv(yv>=0.05), yv(yv>=0.05));
Correct me if I'm wrong :)

Yes, If you only want to integrate when y is above 0.05 then it is correct.
