Converting from “matrix” data into “coordinate” data












2












$begingroup$


Say I have data which looks like data1 - this is "matrix" like data (is there a better descriptor?). The data looks like a matrix, and at each point in the matrix, it has a value. I can plot these in ListContourPlot and the like. e.g. 



datafunction = MultinormalDistribution[{0, 0}, {{2, 1/2}, {1/2, 1}}];



(* matrix like data *) 



data1 = N[ Table[PDF[datafunction, {x, y}] /. {x -> xinsert, y -> yinsert}, {xinsert, -4, 4, 1}, {yinsert, -2, 2, 1}]];

ListContourPlot[data1]


enter image description here
However, I can also create the same effect by making "coordinate" like data, where the data is a list of coordinates. 



(* coordinate like data *) 



data2 = RandomVariate[MultinormalDistribution[{0, 0}, {{2, 1/2}, {1/2, 1}}], 1000];

ListPlot[data2]


enter image description here
How would I convert data1 into data2? How do I convert matrix-like into coordinate-like?



I need to do some PCA analysis, I require the data to be in the form of individual points.

    How do you think one could infer the individual counts from a total count? Once we have totaled data and thrown away the parts there is no way to reconstruct them. The mapping between sums and their constituents is not bijective.

The reshaping can be done in several ways. Below is given one using SparseArray.



First generating the data (simpler than in the question):



datafunction = MultinormalDistribution[{0, 0}, {{2, 1/2}, {1/2, 1}}];



data1 = N[Table[PDF[datafunction][{x, y}], {x, -4, 4, 1}, {y, -2, 2, 1}]];



MatrixForm[data1]


Make index-to-value associations corresponding to the ranges used to make data1:



aX = AssociationThread[Range[Length[#]], #] &@Range[-4, 4, 1];

aY = AssociationThread[Range[Length[#]], #] &@Range[-2, 2, 1];


Convert to a sparse array, take the corresponding rules, and map the {x,y} indexes to the actual x's and y's.



arules = Most[ArrayRules[SparseArray[data1]]];

data2 = Map[{aX[#[[1, 1]]], aY[#[[1, 2]]], #[[2]]} &, arules]


Plot (note the axes ticks):



ListContourPlot[data2]

    An alternative approach based on Rescaleing the "NonzeroPositions" of SparseArray[data1]:



    xrange = {-4, 4};
    
yrange = {-2, 2};
    
sa = SparseArray[data1];
    
nzp = sa["NonzeroPositions"];
    
nzv = sa["NonzeroValues"];
    
data2b = Join[Transpose[Rescale[#, MinMax@#, #2] & @@@
    
     Thread[ {Transpose@nzp, {xrange, yrange}}]], List /@ nzv, 2];
    

    
data2b == data2 (* from Anton's answer *)

                      What other Star Trek series did the main TNG cast show up in?

I know Picard and Worf show up on DS9, though I haven't seen it myself. I'm curious what happened to the characters after that last episode of TNG? star-trek star-trek-tng share | improve this question edited 10 hours ago Ham Sandwich 6,051 2 25 75

Ĝi estis unu el la plej famaj simboloj de la malvarma milito kaj de la disdivido de Germanio. Pli ol simpla muro, la berlina muro estis fakte tuta defendokonstruaĵo kun du muroj, ena malplena strio, rondirvojo, gardturoj kaj alarmsistemoj. Dum la provo transiri la severe garditan limon al okcidenta Berlino multaj homoj estis mortigitaj. La preciza nombro de viktimoj estas pridisputita kaj ne certa; la nombroj anoncataj varias inter 86 kaj 238 mortintoj. La malplifortiĝo de Sovetunio kaj la politiko de liberigo gvidita de Miĥail Gorbaĉov ebligis al la orientgermanoj faligi la 9-an de novembro 1989 l
