I have a 3d array like the example below:
A(:,:,1) = [5.5 2.2; 5.3 2.5; 5.3 2.1; 5.4 2.6]
A(:,:,2) = [5.2 2.9; 5.4 2.6; 5.4 2.6; 5.5 2.2]
I want to calculate the number of occurrences of all column pairs. So for example [5.4 2.6] should equal 3 and [5.5 2.2] should equal 2 while the rest of all pairs will equal 1.
I want the numbers to be stored in a new array at the same location as its representative pair, like this:
B(:,:,1) = [2 1 1 3]
B(:,:,2) = [1 3 3 2]
How can I do this as efficiently as possible? I should add that the real array is much larger so I really need an automated solution.
