how to scale the array type double of range [-1,1] to [0,1] and [0,360] to[0,1]

Answers (5)

The general method to scale any input array (vector, matrix, multi-dim array) to the range [0, 1] is:
maxV = max(V(:));
minV = min(V(:));
Vs = (V - minV) / (maxV - minV);
The following scales array x from any range to [0, 1]
scaled = x - min(x);
scaled = scaled / max(scaled);
check out this function. you can specify also the boundaries.

Correct.
This function did not exist back when the question was asked, but is a useful function to know now.
In older days, the deceptively named mat2gray() function was the one to call to do the rescaling.

a=-1:0.1:1
b=a-min(a)
e=max(a)-min(a)
out=b/e
% you can use the same code for all cases
if input is matrix, you can use this. upper, bottom
xmax =max(input);
xmin =min(input);
A=bsxfun(@minus,input,xmin);
B=bsxfun(@rdivide,A,(xmax-xmin));
cikis=B*(upper-bottom)+bottom;

This works columnwise. I assume the min and max values should concern the complete matrix.
