MATLAB: Divide vectors of different lengths

differentdivisionlengthvectors

Hi,

I have two vectors of different lengths where one vector A is a 2×1 matrix and vector B is a 1×491 matrix. I want to divide each element in A by the vector B so that I get C and it will be a 2×491 matrix. I am not sure on how to execute this so can anyone please advise?

I want it to look something like this: A=[a1 a2]', B=[b1,…,b491], C=A/B where C=[a1/b1,…,a1/b491 ; a2/b1,…,a2/b491]

Best Answer

a=[1 2]
b=[1 2 3 4]
out=bsxfun(@rdivide,a.',b)

If the inputs are effectively constants for a minimization (such as weights that are given for a situation) then they should not form part of x and you should instead parameterize the function call

@(x)objective(x, a, b, c, d)

Where a b c d are the extra inputs

If instead your input x0 values all represent variables whose best value is to be found to minimize the function, then you need to bundle them all together into a single input variable

function cost = objective(allinputs)
   a = allinputs(1:4);
   b = reshape(allinputs(5:16),4,3);

With x0 = [a0(:) ; b0(:)] ;
