Convert a 3 variable array to a 2 variable array

4 views (last 30 days)
I have a 2x25x11 array of x,y coordinates for tracked points through an image sequence (11 total points in all). I want to convert this to a 22x11 double where, for each pair of columns, the even number column = the x coordinate of the point and the odd number column = the y coordinate of the point. When I have used the transpose function on a single point I get the desired result
example: transpose(a(:,:,1))
But otherwise I have been unable to get this result in one go for the entire array. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Let me know if you need any clarification or additional info.

Your array is 2 rows by 25 columns by 11 ‘pages’.
How do you want to map the (2x25) into 22?

So I have figured out the basic code to do what I want, it looks something like this:
test = transpose(([pts(1,:,1);pts(2,:,1);pts(1,:,2);pts(2,:,2)...]));
But is there any way of setting up so that it does this for all the "n" number of "pages" in one go?

test=permute(pts,[2,1,3]);
test=reshape(test,size(pts,2),[]);
