shift_array | R Documentation |
Re-arrange arrays in parallel
shift_array(x, along_margin, unit_margin, shift_amount)
x |
array, must have at least matrix |
along_margin |
which index is to be shifted |
unit_margin |
which dimension decides |
shift_amount |
shift amount along |
A simple use-case for this function is to think of a matrix where each row is a signal and columns stand for time. The objective is to align (time-lock) each signal according to certain events. For each signal, we want to shift the time points by certain amount.
In this case, the shift amount is defined by shift_amount
, whose
length equals to number of signals. along_margin=2
as we want to shift
time points (column, the second dimension) for each signal. unit_margin=1
because the shift amount is depend on the signal number.
An array with same dimensions as the input x
, but with
index shifted. The missing elements will be filled with NA
.
