Vectorizing array indexing/subsetting in Matlab

问题

Suppose I have a long data vector y, plus some indices into it. I want to extract a short snippet or window around every index.

For example, suppose I want to construct a matrix containing 64 samples before and 64 samples after every value that is below three. This is trivial to do in a for-loop:

WIN_SIZE = 64;

% Sample data with padding
data = [nan(WIN_SIZE,1); randn(1e6,1); nan(WIN_SIZE,1)];

% Sample events, could be anything
index = find(data < 3); 

snippets = nan(length(index), 2*WIN_SIZE + 1);
for ii=1:length(index)
   snippets(ii,:) = data((index(ii)-WIN_SIZE):(index(ii)+WIN_SIZE));
end

However,this is not blazingly fast. Is there any way to vectorize (or otherwise speed up) this operation?

(In case this is unclear, the index could be anything and may not necessarily be a property of the data; I just wanted something simple to illustrate the idea.)

回答1:

Use bsxfun -

snippets = data(bsxfun(@plus,index(:),[-WIN_SIZE:WIN_SIZE]))
