Vectorizing sums of different diagonals in a matrix
- by reve_etrange
I want to vectorize the following MATLAB code. I think it must be simple but I'm finding it confusing nevertheless.
r = some constant less than m or n
[m,n] = size(C);
S = zeros(m-r,n-r);
for i=1:m-r
for j=1:n-r
S(i,j) = sum(diag(C(i:i+r-1,j:j+r-1)));
end
end
The code calculates a table of scores, S, for a dynamic programming algorithm, from another score table, C. The diagonal summing is to generate scores for individual pieces of the data used to generate C, for all possible pieces (of size r).
Thanks in advance for any answers! Sorry if this one should be obvious...
