Hello everyone,
I have a little problem calculating a velocity from a distance matrix. I do have the time array already.
My distance matrix looks as following:
dist=[x_coord1, y_coord1; x_coord2, y_coord2; ....];
The coordinates are absolute, and I need the relative distance between the current coordinates and the previous one.
So, my vector should look like this:
newdist=[pdist2([x_coord2,y_coord2],[x_coord1,y_coord1]); pdist2([x_coord3,y_coord3],[x_coord2,y_coord2]) ......];
But instead pdist2 gives a vector with the distance of every possible combination of cells.
My questions(in my opinion at least):
1. Are there any functions which give me what I want immediately; or if this is not the case
2. Is there a way to decipher the pdist2 vector and get the correct values?
Thanks for reading this long post and helping 🙂
Kind regards, Dries van Roovert
