Accessing Specific Data Field In Ground Truth Data

2 views (last 30 days)
Hi All,
I have my goundtruth .mat file with some fields empty and I am trying to select data from only the rows and colums that contains data in all four fields!!
I am not certain how to start the code but i am guessing this is a for loop or rather a while loop!!
Here,s my take on this but it is wrong, I am learning and some day I will get this but I need to understand how to start this!
This is my code
Fullfields= 0;
while SDataTable(:,:) == []
Fullfields = (Fullfields + 1)
end
disp(Fullfields);
Can someone help me please!
Please see image of my task!

Hey!
Can you share that .mat file with us? That would certainly help in arriving at a solution faster.

Hey!
This should work -
data = load('Shooting.mat');
vals = data.Shooting.LabelData;
% Use cellfun to identify which elements within the timetable are empty
idx = all(~cellfun(@isempty,vals{:,:}),2);
% variable 'out' will contain only those rows which have all non-empty values
out = vals(idx,:)
Here's the Doc link for cellfun.
Hope this helps!

Hey!
The MATLAB function cellfun works on cell arrays. However, the data that we're working with (vals) is of type timetable.
Using
vals{:,:}
would expand its contents and result in all the cell arrays within the timetable vals.
Secondly, you can mention the dim argument in the function all. This specificies the dimension along which you want the operation to happen. In this case, I want to check if in every row within vals, all elements are equal to 1, and that is why I mentioned '2' as the dimension. Therefore, giving a value of 5 would not work and will result in an error.
Hope this helps!
