performance tuning - Fast function to do multiple rectangle region checks



Suppose I have a set of "rectangles" and a set of "points":


SeedRandom[5]
rects = RandomReal[10, {5, 2, 2}]
pts = RandomReal[10, {5, 2}]


{{{0.00790584, 0.650192}, {9.89555, 9.68768}}, {{2.00866, 8.19521}, {0.897634, 9.70701}}, {{2.2991, 6.12503}, {0.96816, 5.48855}}, {{1.32548, 2.32332}, {7.76135, 5.50949}}, {{0.586896, 9.60602}, {0.982487, 0.343521}}}


{{8.06562, 4.39186}, {1.42284, 0.27687}, {0.794711, 8.59505}, {2.42136, 8.42835}, {5.54556, 7.21645}}



I want to find out which points are members of their associated rectangles. One slow possibility is to use RegionMember:



MapThread[RegionMember[Rectangle@@#1, #2]&, {rects, pts}]


{True, RegionMember[ Rectangle[{2.00866, 8.19521}, {0.897634, 9.70701}], {1.42284, 0.27687}], RegionMember[ Rectangle[{2.2991, 6.12503}, {0.96816, 5.48855}], {0.794711, 8.59505}], False, RegionMember[ Rectangle[{0.586896, 9.60602}, {0.982487, 0.343521}], {5.54556, 7.21645}]}



This approach doesn't work because RegionMember needs the first Rectangle coordinate to be strictly smaller than the second Rectangle coordinate. It also unpacks the rects variable. I would like a function inRange that returns 1 if the point is in the rectangle, and 0 otherwise, and I want to avoid unpacking. For the above example:


inRange[rects, pts]

should return:


{1, 0, 0, 0, 0}


A compiled solution is acceptable, but I would prefer a version that works for both packed arrays and mixed data types.


An alternate version using vectors only is fine, e.g.:


inRange[x1, y1, x2, y2, x, y]

A 1D version would also be interesting, with intervals instead of rectangles. The simplest approach in that case would be to use IntervalMemberQ, but that would cause unpacking.

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

How to thread a list

I have data in format data = {{a1, a2}, {b1, b2}, {c1, c2}, {d1, d2}} Tableform: I want to thread it to : tdata = {{{a1, b1}, {a2, b2}}, {{a1, c1}, {a2, c2}}, {{a1, d1}, {a2, d2}}} Tableform: And I would like to do better then pseudofunction[n_] := Transpose[{data2[[1]], data2[[n]]}]; SetAttributes[pseudofunction, Listable]; Range[2, 4] // pseudofunction Here is my benchmark data, where data3 is normal sample of real data. data3 = Drop[ExcelWorkBook[[Column1 ;; Column4]], None, 1]; data2 = {a #, b #, c #, d #} & /@ Range[1, 10^5]; data = RandomReal[{0, 1}, {10^6, 4}]; Here is my benchmark code kptnw[list_] := Transpose[{Table[First@#, {Length@# - 1}], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list kptnw2[list_] := Transpose[{ConstantArray[First@#, Length@# - 1], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list OleksandrR[list_] := Flatten[Outer[List, List@First[list], Rest[list], 1], {{2}, {1, 4}}] paradox2[list_] := Partition[Riffle[list[[1]], #], 2] & /@ Drop[list, 1] RM[list_] := FoldList[Transpose[{First@li...

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...
