How to automatically concatenate several .mat files into one file?

5 次查看(过去 30 天)
Here is what I am trying to do:
I have these four .mat files... '20130602_SPLBRENT3_135638.mat' '20130602_SPLBRENT3_183333.mat' '20130602_SPLBRENT3_184002.mat' '20130602_SPLBRENT3_205239.mat'
I want to write perhaps a script or function that will concatenate those four files into one file with the name '20130602_SPLBRENT3_concat.mat' My goal is to be able to automate this process through Task Scheduler so that the files are concatenated once a day. As you can see, these are files from June 2.
Anyone know how I go about doing this? I am very new to Matlab so please be as detailed as possible. Thanks!

I think an important question is why do you want to concatenate those files?

Mat files aren't easy to concatenate UNLESS they contain different variables.
The code, in that case, would be:
load(filename1)
load(filename2)
load(filename3)
load(filename4)
save(filename)
If they have similar variables inside them, then concatenation is harder, but you can bodge it easily:
a{1} = load(filename1);
a{2} = load(filename2);
a{3} = load(filename3);
a{4} = load(filename4);
save(filename,a)

load() of a .mat file returns a structure whose fieldnames are the original variable names.
But I do need to think more about what should be concatenated together. The above will probably fail because -struct in save needs scalar structures.

For the case of .mat files with exactly one variable name:
t1 = load(filename1);
t2{1} = struct2cell(t);
t2{2} = struct2cell(load(filename2));
t2{3} = struct2cell(load(filename3));
t2{4} = struct2cell(load(filename4));
fn = fieldnames(t1);
t3.(fn{1}) = vertcat(t2{:});
save(filename, '-struct', 't3');
