我怎样才能有效地使用Matlab找到3D阵列第三维的所有方差？

Question

If I have a matrix A of size nx * ny * nz , I could find the variances I'm looking for by using a double for loop:

varA = zeros(ny,nx);
for jj = 1:ny
  for ii = 1:nx
    varA(jj,ii) = var(A(jj,ii,:));
  end
end

However, I would very much like to avoid using this loop, as it can take a long time for large arrays. Is there an easy way to do this calculation efficiently in Matlab?

Answer 1

You want to provide the dim input to var to specify the dimension along which to apply the calculation.

varA = var(A, 0, 3);

You must specify the weighting scheme (the second argument) to be the default (0).

NOTE : This dimension parameter is available for many simple calculations including mean , std , diff . Check the documentation for the specific function.
