I'm experimenting with numpy and I've just written the code below, which
computes the thing I want (I think). Self.bits is an RxRxR array
representing a voxelized 3d model - values are either 0 or 1. I can't
help thinking that's there must be a much nicer way to do it. Any
suggestions?
centre = numpy.array(scipy.ndimage.measurements.center_of_mass(self.bits))
vectors = []
for x in xrange(R):
for y in xrange(R):
for z in xrange(R):
if self.bits[x,y,z]:
vectors.append([x,y,z])
vectors = numpy.array(vectors)
distances = numpy.sqrt(numpy.sum((vectors-centre) ** 2.0, axis=1))
av_dist = numpy.average(distances)
Try nonzero:
In [5]: bits = np.random.random_integers(0,1, size=(3,3,3))
In [6]: vectors = nonzero(bits)
In [7]: vectors
Out[7]:
(array([0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2]),
array([0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 0, 0, 1, 2, 2, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2]),
array([0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 2, 0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 2]))
The arrays three arrays contain the x, y, z indices.
