list manipulation - Calculate mean square displacements for different particles from a excel file

I have the particle movement data in the following format:

{
 {1., 1., 0., 0.},
 {1., 2., 0.240727, 0.974106},
 {1., 3., 0.0215366, 0.703085},
 {1., 4., 0.437541, 1.19085},
 {2., 1., 0., 0.},
 {2., 2., -2.17808, 0.455328},
 {2., 3., -2.97556, -0.668351},

 {2., 4., -3.91848, -1.25396},
 {3., 1., 0., 0.},
 {3., 2., -0.523589, 0.136621},
 {3., 3., -1.87956, 0.679403},
 {3., 4., -2.36116, 0.749859}
}

The first number is the particle number, second is the frame number in the movie, third is the $x$ position, and the fourth is the $y$-position. So in the above data, the first 4 lists belong to particle 1, the next 4 to particle 2 and the last 4 to particle 3.

I need to calculate the mean square displacement (MSD) $(x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2$ for each of the particles separately. I can calculate MSD if I don't have to care about the above data having 3 particles, treat all as the same (but that's not what I want). I need to calculate MSD for each of these particles separately. Basically, somehow I have to tell the program where the the data for particle 1 end and where data for particle 2 starts.

In MATLAB, I have used the find function to return the location index of the number "1" in the second column of the data and run the loop till that index to calculate MSD for each particle.

I am new to Mathematica and trying to learn it. It's taking me a while to find a answer to this problem. Can anyone help?

plotting - Filling between two spheres in SphericalPlot3D

Manipulate[ SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, Mesh -> None, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], {n, 0, 1}] I cant' seem to be able to make a filling between two spheres. I've already tried the obvious Filling -> {1 -> {2}} but Mathematica doesn't seem to like that option. Is there any easy way around this or ... Answer There is no built-in filling in SphericalPlot3D . One option is to use ParametricPlot3D to draw the surfaces between the two shells: Manipulate[ Show[SphericalPlot3D[{1, 2 - n}, {θ, 0, Pi}, {ϕ, 0, 1.5 Pi}, PlotPoints -> 15, PlotRange -> {-2.2, 2.2}], ParametricPlot3D[{ r {Sin[t] Cos[1.5 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[1.5 Pi], Cos[t]}, r {Sin[t] Cos[0 Pi], Sin[t] Sin[0 Pi], Cos[t]}}, {r, 1, 2 - n}, {t, 0, Pi}, PlotStyle -> Yellow, Mesh -> {2, 15}]], {n, 0, 1}]

plotting - Plot 4D data with color as 4th dimension

I have a list of 4D data (x position, y position, amplitude, wavelength). I want to plot x, y, and amplitude on a 3D plot and have the color of the points correspond to the wavelength. I have seen many examples using functions to define color but my wavelength cannot be expressed by an analytic function. Is there a simple way to do this? Answer Here a another possible way to visualize 4D data: data = Flatten[Table[{x, y, x^2 + y^2, Sin[x - y]}, {x, -Pi, Pi,Pi/10}, {y,-Pi,Pi, Pi/10}], 1]; You can use the function Point along with VertexColors . Now the points are places using the first three elements and the color is determined by the fourth. In this case I used Hue, but you can use whatever you prefer. Graphics3D[ Point[data[[All, 1 ;; 3]], VertexColors -> Hue /@ data[[All, 4]]], Axes -> True, BoxRatios -> {1, 1, 1/GoldenRatio}]

plotting - Mathematica: 3D plot based on combined 2D graphs

I have several sigmoidal fits to 3 different datasets, with mean fit predictions plus the 95% confidence limits (not symmetrical around the mean) and the actual data. I would now like to show these different 2D plots projected in 3D as in but then using proper perspective. In the link here they give some solutions to combine the plots using isometric perspective, but I would like to use proper 3 point perspective. Any thoughts? Also any way to show the mean points per time point for each series plus or minus the standard error on the mean would be cool too, either using points+vertical bars, or using spheres plus tubes. Below are some test data and the fit function I am using. Note that I am working on a logit(proportion) scale and that the final vertical scale is Log10(percentage). (* some test data *) data = Table[Null, {i, 4}]; data[[1]] = {{1, -5.8}, {2, -5.4}, {3, -0.8}, {4, -0.2}, {5, 4.6}, {1, -6.4}, {2, -5.6}, {3, -0.7}, {4, 0.04}, {5, 1.0}, {1, -6.8}, {2, -4.7}, {3, -1.
