Hi every one,
Please, i need help on specified task. I have vectors (as shown in the attached figure) and i would like to extract the points where the vector starts to decrase.
I did not found the appropriate functions to do it.
The data points is also in the attached file
Thank you in advance for your help.
Best regards

There are probably some smart algorithms that will be helpful (Image Analyst mentioned some hints). But here's a lower-level solution that relies on a subjetive threshold such that when the change in y-values drops below the threshold, it triggers the detection.
I only downloaded your figure and extracted the y values from each line and this works with your 3 lines. In this code, y is a vector of y-values from one of your lines.
How it works: It uses a sliding window (currently set to 5 coordinates) and compares the mean of the first 4 values and the last value. If the fraction y(5)/mean(y(1:4)) is less than 0.99, it detects the drop.
%Define window size: number of samples within window
win = 5;
% Sliding window that compares the last value in the window with the
% mean of the preceeding values in the window. If the mean/last is < .99
% it detects the change. Assumes drop is not prior to the index win-1
dropFound = false; % search flag
i = 1; %starting index
while ~dropFound
dropFound = y(i+win-1)/mean(y(i:i+win-2)) < 0.99;
i = i+1;
if i == numel(y)-win
% if you get to the end and haven't found a drop,
% quit the loop and throw a warning
warning('Drop not found')
end
end
yChangeIdx = i+win-2; % Index of coordinate that drops
xline(x(yChangeIdx)) % Draw a vertical line at the drop

Glad it's working for you to find only relevant decreasing segments. At first you said decreasing, which means that the next point was lower than the prior point, which is solved a different way.
By the way, including screenshots means using the image icon to insert a PNG file so we can see it immediately in your post. If you attach a fig file, then there is extra work. We have to right click then save it somewhere, then we have to use MATLAB to find the file and open it - that's not as quick and easy.
fileName = 'data_threshold.mat';
s = load('data_threshold.mat')
numArrays = length(s.XTrain)
for k = 1 : numArrays
thisVector = s.XTrain{k};
plot(thisVector, '-', 'LineWidth', 2);
hold on;
end
grid on;
caption = sprintf('%d vectors in %s', numArrays, fileName);
title(caption, 'FontSize', 15, 'Interpreter', 'none');
xlabel('Index', 'FontSize', 15);
ylabel('XTrain', 'FontSize', 15);

Can you post a screenshot of your plot? In the meantime, check out findchangepts() and diff.
% Find index where vec starts to decrease
d = diff(vec);
index = find(d<0, 1, 'first') + 1;

Thank you for your help, but i'm sorry it does not work in this case, i tried this kind of strategy before.
