Matlab arrays to / from Python

Passing N-dimensional arrays to / from Python from Matlab is straightforward with Matlab. Matlab can work with Python classes including list(), dict(), set(), Numpy.ndarray and Xarray.DataArray.

Matlab using Numpy example:

Matlab using Xarray: see example glow.m.

function M = xarray2mat(V)
M = double(py.numpy.asfortranarray(V));
end

function I = xarrayind2vector(V,key)
% convert xarray index to Matlab 1-D vector

I = cell2mat(cell(V.indexes{key}.values.tolist));

end
