How to sum up row values in a matrix?

3 views (last 30 days)
Dear All
I have matrix A
A = [ 1 2 3 5;
3 4 5 4;
];
I want to add row values like that using a loop ( without manual input)
A(1,1) + A(1,2) = B1
A(1,3) + A(1,4) = B2
A(2,1) + A(2,2) = B3
A(2,3) + A(2,4) = B4
B= [ B1 B2;
B3 B4
];
How can I do that any tips
Many Thanks in advance

I'm not sure of your rule, but it looks like you might be doing
Values = cumsum(M(:, end))

I have a matrix like [1 2 3 4] I want an output [1 3 6 10]

A = [ 1 2 3 5;3 4 5 4]
res=reshape(sum(reshape(A',1,2,[])),2,2)'
%or
res=A(:,[1 3])+A(:,[2 4])
%or
n=size(A,2)/2
res=[sum(A(1,1:n)) sum(A(1,n+1:end)); sum(A(2,1:n)) sum(A(2,n+1:end))]

Here's one way:
A = [ 1 2 3 5;
3 4 5 4]
% Get the sliding sum.
a2 = conv2(A, [1 1], 'valid');
% Extract just the first and last column.
output = [a2(:,1) a2(:,3)]

Hi Image analyst
I have bigger matrix.
A=
0.0018 0.0008 0.0000 0.0000 0.2304 0.7345 0.0159 0.0166
0.0024 0.0016 0.0001 0.0000 0.2161 0.7441 0.0165 0.0192
0.0029 0.0027 0.0002 0.0000 0.2084 0.7475 0.0169 0.0214
0.0034 0.0040 0.0003 0.0000 0.2041 0.7479 0.0172 0.0230
0.0038 0.0055 0.0005 0.0001 0.2016 0.7468 0.0175 0.0243
0.0041 0.0072 0.0007 0.0001 0.1999 0.7450 0.0177 0.0253
0.0044 0.0090 0.0009 0.0001 0.1988 0.7429 0.0178 0.0261
I want to do the operation like your code
% Get the sliding sum
a2 = conv2(A, [1 1], 'valid');
how can I do that
Here I want have to add
A(1,1) + A(1,2) + A(1,3)+ A(1,4) = B1
A(1,5) + A(1,6) + A(1,7)+ A(1,8) = B2
A(2,1) + A(2,2) + A(2,3)+ A(2,4) = B3
A(2,5) + A(2,6) + A(2,7)+ A(2,8) = B4
B = [ B1 B2
B3 B4]
Thanks

or simpler
n=size(A,2)/2
res=[sum(A(1,1:n)) sum(A(1,n+1:end)); sum(A(2,1:n)) sum(A(2,n+1:end))]

Yeah, that's probably better - more direct - as long as he has a 2 row array. In his example here (which he incorrectly posted as an answer), he has a 7 row by 8 column array. See my build on your solution for when it has any number of rows.

A=[...

[rows columns] = size(A)
% Get the sliding sum
a2 = conv2(A, ones(1, columns/2), 'valid')
% Extract just the first and last column.
B = [a2(:,1) a2(:,end)]
Or, building off Azzi's solution and making it work for a 2D array of any number of rows:
B = [sum(A(:,1:columns/2), 2) sum(A(:,(columns/2)+1:end), 2)]
This is probably the most direct way. And it's only 1 line of code instead of 2.
