How To Assign a Linear System of Equation Answers to An Array - multidimensional-array

I have a solution list as below from solving a linear equation system:
w[2, 2] -> 0.0000183294,
w[2, 3] -> 0.0000296603,
w[2, 4] -> 0.0000233449,
w[3, 2] -> 0.0000230831,
When I call, for example: w[3,2] I get w[3,2] as output instead of 0.0000230831.
How can I assign these answers to a 2D array named so W[i,j] such that I can call them by their indices?

Solution lists are replacement rules and to get them to work you have to apply the rules. Lets say that you have a Solve[] statement that produces your solution list, the following will create a function W[i,j] that will return the value of w[i,j] if it exists in the list.
sol = Solve[...];
W[i_, j_] := w[i, j] /. sol
As an aside, you should understand that single brackets F[i,j,...] denote a function of the variables i, j, ... and double brackets F[[i,j]] denote a 2D array with indexes i and j. In general it is faster and better to use replacement lists to build functions than it is to make arrays out of them.

Cumulative Integration Options With Julia

I have two 1-D arrays in which I would like to calculate the approximate cumulative integral of 1 array with respect to the scalar spacing specified by the 2nd array. MATLAB has a function called cumtrapz that handles this scenario. Is there something similar that I can try within Julia to accomplish the same thing?
The expected result is another 1-D array with the integral calculated for each element.
There is a numerical integration package for Julia (see the link) that defines cumul_integrate(X, Y) and uses the trapezoidal rule by default.
If this package didn't exist, though, you could easily write the function yourself and have a very efficient implementation out of the box because the loop does not come with a performance penalty.
Edit: Added an #assert to check matching vector dimensions and fixed a typo.
function cumtrapz(X::T, Y::T) where {T <: AbstractVector}
# Check matching vector length
#assert length(X) == length(Y)
# Initialize Output
out = similar(X)
out[1] = 0
# Iterate over arrays
for i in 2:length(X)
out[i] = out[i-1] + 0.5*(X[i] - X[i-1])*(Y[i] + Y[i-1])
end
# Return output
out
end

How to inherit from a regular matrix

using ShiftedArrays
struct CircularMatrix{T} <: AbstractArray{T,2}
data::Array{T,2}
view::CircShiftedArray
currentIndex::Int
function CircularMatrix{T}(dims...) where T
data = zeros(T, dims...)
CircularMatrix(data, ShiftedArrays.circshift(data, (0, -1)), 1)
end
end
Base.size(M::CircularMatrix) = size(M.data)
Base.eltype(::Type{CircularMatrix{T}}) where {T} = T
function shift_forward!(M::CircularMatrix)
M.shift_forward!(1)
end
function shift_forward!(M::CircularMatrix, n)
# replace the view with a view shifted forwards.
M.currentIndex += n
M.view = ShiftedArrays.circshift(M.data, (n, M.currentIndex))
end
#inline Base.#propagate_inbounds function Base.getindex(M::CircularMatrix, i) = M.view[i]
#inline Base.#propagate_inbounds function Base.setindex!(M::CircularMatrix, data, i) = M.view[i] = data
How can I make CircularMatrix act just like a regular matrix.
So that I can access it like
m = CircularMatrix{Int}(4,4)
m[1, 1] = 5
x = view(m, 1, :)
Your matrix type is defined to be a subtype of AbstractArray{T, 2}. You need to implement a few methods in the informal array interface of Julia for your type to make functions and features that work on AbstractArray{T, 2} to also work on your custom type, that is, to make your CircularMatrix an iterable, indexable, completely functioning matrix.
The methods to implement are
size(M::CircularMatrix)
getindex(M::CircularMatrix, i::Int)
getindex(M::CircularMatrix, I::Vararg{Int, N})
setindex!(M::CircularMatrix, v, i::Int)
setindex!(M::CircularMatrix, v, I::Vararg{Int, N})
You already implement 1, 2 and 4 but have not yet set your indexing style. You might not need 3 and 5 if you choose linear indexing style. You only need to set IndexStyle to be IndexLinear() and maybe a few modifications, then everything should just work for your matrix.
1. size(M::CircularMatrix)
The first one is size. size(A::CircularMatrix) returns a Tuple of dimensions of A. I believe for your matrix probably something like the following
Base.size(M::CircularMatrix) = size(M.data)
2. getindex(M::CircularMatrix, i::Int)
This method is needed if you choose linear indexing style. getindex(M, i::Int) should give you the value at linear index i. You already implement it in your code. If you choose linear indexing, you need to set IndexStyle for your type and then you simply skip 3 and 5. Julia will automatically convert multiple index accesses, e.g. a[3, 5], to a linear index access.
Base.IndexStyle(::Type{<:CircularMatrix}) = IndexLinear()
Base.#propogate_inbounds function Base.getindex(M::CircularMatrix, i::Int)
#boundscheck checkbounds(M, i)
#inbounds M.view[i]
end
It might be better to use #inbounds here on the second line. If the caller doesn't use #inbounds, we check the bounds first and this hopefully makes the subsequent bounds check unnecessary. You might want to omit this during development, though.
3. getindex(M::CircularMatrix, I::Vararg{Int, N})
The third one is for Cartesian indexing style. If you choose this style you need to implement this method. Vararg{Int, N} in the signature stands for "exactly N Int arguments". Here N should be equal to the dimensionality of CircularMatrix. Since this is a matrix, N should be two. If you choose this style, you need to define something like the following
Base.#propogate_inbounds function Base.getindex(A::CircularMatrix, I::Vararg{Int, 2})
#boundscheck checkbounds(A, I...)
#inbounds A.view[# convert I[1]` and `I[2]` to a linear index in `view`]
end
or since your dimensionality is not parametric and a matrix is 2D, simply
Base.#propogate_inbounds function Base.getindex(A::CircularMatrix, i::Int, j::Int)
#boundscheck checkbounds(A, i, j)
#inbounds A.view[# convert i` and `j` to a linear index in `view`]
end
4. setindex!(M::CircularMatrix, v, i::Int)
The fourth one is similar to the second. This method should set the value at linear index i, if you choose linear indexing style.
5. setindex!(M::CircularMatrix, v, I::Vararg{Int, N})
The fifth one should be similar to the third, if you choose Cartesian indexing style.
After the implementations for 1, 2, and 4 and setting IndexStyle, you should have a custom matrix type that just works.
m[1, 1] = 5
x = view(m, 1, :)
for e in
...
end
for i in eachindex(m)
...
end
display(m)
println(m)
length(m)
ndims(m)
map(f, A)
....
These should all work.
A few notes
There is a documentation for Abstract Arrays interface here with a few examples. You can also see Optional Methods to implement.
There is a JuliaArray organization on GitHub that provides lots of useful custom array implementations including StaticArrays, OffsetArrays, etc. and also a JuliaMatrices organization that provides custom matrix types. You might want to take a look at their implementations.
#inline is redundant if you use Base.#propogate_inbounds.
#propagate_inbounds
Tells the compiler to inline a function while retaining the caller's
inbounds context.
You do not need to define eltype for your matrix, since there is already a definition for AbstractArray{T, N} which returns T.

The use of map when the function that map is used on has arrays of inputs

Julia's "higher-order" function "map" looks very useful. But while it is easy to understand how it can be used on functions that have one input, it is not obvious how map can be used when the function has multiple inputs, and when each these may be arrays. I would like discover how map is used in that situation.
Suppose I have the following function:
function randomSample(items, weights)
sample(items, Weights(weights))
end
Example:
Pkg.add("StatsBase")
using StatsBase
randomSample([1,0],[0.5, 0.5])
How can map be used here? I have tried something like:
items = [1 0;1 0;1 0]
weights = [1 0;0.5 0.5;0.75 0.25]
map(randomSample(items,weights))
In the example above, I would expect Julia to output a 3 by 1 array of integers (from the items), each row being either 0 or 1 depending on the corresponding weights.
In your case when items and weights are Matrix you can use the eachrow function like this:
map(randomSample, eachrow(items), eachrow(weights))
If you are on Julia version earlier than 1.1 you can write:
map(i -> randomSample(items[i, :], weights[i, :]), axes(items, 1))
or
map(i -> randomSample(view(items,i, :), view(weights, i, :)), axes(items, 1))
(the latter avoids allocations)
However, in practice I would probably define items and weights as vectors of vectors:
items = [[1, 0],[1, 0],[1, 0]]
weights = [[1, 0], [0.5, 0.5], [0.75, 0.25]]
and then you can simply write:
map(randomSample, items, weights)
or
randomSample.(items, weights)
The reason for my preference is the following:
it is conceptually clearer what is the structure of your data
vector of vectors is easier to mutate (e.g. you can push! a new entry at the end)
vector of vectors can be ragged if needed
in some cases it might be a bit faster (iterating by rows in Julia is not optimal as it uses column-major indexing; of course you can fix it in your Matrix approach by assuming that you store your data columnwise not colwise as you currently do)
(this is not a very strong preference and you can probably choose whatever is more convenient to you)

How to know the index of the iterator when using map in Julia

I have an Array of arrays, called y:
y=Array(Vector{Int64}, 10)
which is basically a list of 1-dimensional arrays(10 of them), and each 1-dimensional array has length 5. Below is an example of how they are initialized:
for i in 1:10
y[i]=sample(1:20, 5)
end
Each 1-dimensional array includes 5 randomly sampled integers between 1 to 20.
Right now I am applying a map function where for each of those 1-dimensional arrays in y , excludes which numbers from 1 to 20:
map(x->setdiff(1:20, x), y)
However, I want to make sure when the function applied to y[i], if the output of setdiff(1:20, y[i]) includes i, i is excluded from the results. in other words I want a function that works like
setdiff(deleteat!(Vector(1:20),i) ,y[i])
but with map.
Mainly my question is that whether you can access the index in the map function.
P.S, I know how to do it with comprehensions, I wanted to know if it is possible to do it with map.
comprehension way:
[setdiff(deleteat!(Vector(1:20), index), value) for (index,value) in enumerate(y)]
Like this?
map(x -> setdiff(deleteat!(Vector(1:20), x[1]),x[2]), enumerate(y))
For your example gives this:
[2,3,4,5,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,15,17,19,20]
[1,3,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,13,16,17,18,20]
....
[1,2,4,7,8,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18]
[1,2,3,5,6,8,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,19,20]

vectorize a bidimensional function in R

I have a some true and predicted labels
truth <- factor(c("+","+","-","+","+","-","-","-","-","-"))
pred <- factor(c("+","+","-","-","+","+","-","-","+","-"))
and I would like to build the confusion matrix.
I have a function that works on unary elements
f <- function(x,y){ sum(y==pred[truth == x])}
however, when I apply it to the outer product, to build the matrix, R seems unhappy.
outer(levels(truth), levels(truth), f)
Error in outer(levels(x), levels(x), f) :
dims [product 4] do not match the length of object [1]
What is the recommended strategy for this in R ?
I can always go through higher order stuff, but that seems clumsy.
I sometimes fail to understand where outer goes wrong, too. For this task I would have used the table function:
> table(truth,pred) # arguably a lot less clumsy than your effort.
pred
truth - +
- 4 2
+ 1 3
In this case, you are test whether a multivalued vector is "==" to a scalar.
outer assumes that the function passed to FUN can take vector arguments and work properly with them. If m and n are the lengths of the two vectors passed to outer, it will first create two vectors of length m*n such that every combination of inputs occurs, and pass these as the two new vectors to FUN. To this, outer expects, that FUN will return another vector of length m*n
The function described in your example doesn't really do this. In fact, it doesn't handle vectors correctly at all.
One way is to define another function that can handle vector inputs properly, or alternatively, if your program actually requires a simple matching, you could use table() as in #DWin 's answer
If you're redefining your function, outer is expecting a function that will be run for inputs:
f(c("+","+","-","-"), c("+","-","+","-"))
and per your example, ought to return,
c(3,1,2,4)
There is also the small matter of decoding the actual meaning of the error:
Again, if m and n are the lengths of the two vectors passed to outer, it will first create a vector of length m*n, and then reshapes it using (basically)
dim(output) = c(m,n)
This is the line that gives an error, because outer is trying to shape the output into a 2x2 matrix (total 2*2 = 4 items) while the function f, assuming no vectorization, has given only 1 output. Hence,
Error in outer(levels(x), levels(x), f) :
dims [product 4] do not match the length of object [1]
