Hi,
I have an array1 (4x3x5) of probabilities. I constructed a second array2 corresponding of probabilities to find some values,for each value in array2 I look in the array1 of probabilies at the same index to know the probability to find the value.
Now the problem is that, in array2, some of the values are duplicated. So first I have to remove all the duplicated values, and to recalculate the probabilities of the new unique values by calculating the sum of the probabilities in the second column where the value is the same in array1.
This is all what I find :
uniqueC = unique(C); to calculate the unique elements of the array. I tried to do manipulations like this : n = histc(C(:), uniqueC, 1);
setdiff(C(:), uniqueC);
But it doesn't work with (4x3x5).
I searched for days before I came here.
Please help me, I need it very soon for an assignement.

if you want to remove the duplicate, what are you going to replace it with? what's the problem with duplication? I don't really understand. Please give an example of a sample C array that is undesirable and also say how you want to make it desirable so we suggest comments on how you do it.

The duplication is not good beacause I have to build a new array of probability law for a random variable, the values of the variable are in array2 and the probabilities are in array1. Here is array1
(:,:,1) =
0.4528 0.0477 0.0715
0.0220 0.0023 0.0035
0.0045 0.0005 0.0007
0.0511 0.0054 0.0081
(:,:,2) =
0.0129 0.0014 0.0020
0.0349 0.0037 0.0055
0.0188 0.0020 0.0030
0.0052 0.0005 0.0008
(:,:,3) =
0.0065 0.0007 0.0010
0.0013 0.0001 0.0002
0.0123 0.0013 0.0019
0.0239 0.0025 0.0038
(:,:,4) =
0.0194 0.0020 0.0031
0.0078 0.0008 0.0012
0.0446 0.0047 0.0070
0.0427 0.0045 0.0067
(:,:,5) =
0.0032 0.0003 0.0005
0.0058 0.0006 0.0009
0.0149 0.0016 0.0023
0.0071 0.0007 0.0011
And array 2 :
C(:,:,1) =
0 25000 35000
20000 45000 55000
60000 85000 95000
50000 75000 85000
C(:,:,2) =
15000 40000 50000
35000 60000 70000
75000 100000 110000
65000 90000 100000
C(:,:,3) =
30000 55000 65000
50000 75000 85000
90000 115000 125000
80000 105000 115000
C(:,:,4) =
75000 100000 110000
95000 120000 130000
135000 160000 170000
125000 150000 160000
C(:,:,5) =
5000 30000 40000
25000 50000 60000
65000 90000 100000
55000 80000 90000
I have to built an array3 like this (this is done):
0
5000
15000
20000
25000
30000
35000
40000
45000
50000
55000
60000
65000
70000
75000
80000
85000
90000
95000
100000
105000
110000
115000
120000
125000
130000
135000
150000
160000
170000
And the array4 (the probability low of array3) will for each indice in array3, calculate the probability like this (the result is an array with the same dimension as that of array3) :
0.4528 //zero apears one time, we looked for the first indice ... 0,055 //at the indice of 50000 ...
for example 50000 appears in 4 indices in array2, I cheked the values at these indices in array1 and did the sum to find the total probability : 0.0511 + 0.0020 + 0.0006 + 0.0013 = 0,055
Thank you

So to get this straight, if you have more than one of the same value (lets say 50000), then you must add up the sum of the percentages corresponding to it? If this is the case, then it might be easier to think about it you put all probabilities into one large column, and all the corresponding values into another large column. This will make it easier to find all duplicate values. This also makes it easier to delete the multiple values, because you don't have to worry about keeping the same number of rows and columns in a matrix.
