I'm trying to calculate the average of a certain array which contains points (x,y).
is it possible to use thrust to find the average point represented as a (x,y) point?
i could also represent the array as a thrust::device_vector<int>
when each cell contains the absolute position of the point, meaning i*numColumns + j
though I'm not sure that the average number represents the average cell.
Thanks!
#include <iostream>
#include <thrust/device_vector.h>
#include <thrust/reduce.h>
struct add_int2 {
__device__
int2 operator()(const int2& a, const int2& b) const {
int2 r;
r.x = a.x + b.x;
r.y = a.y + b.y;
return r;
}
};
#define N 20
int main()
{
thrust::host_vector<int2> a(N);
for (unsigned i=0; i<N; ++i) {
a[i].x = i;
a[i].y = i+1;
}
thrust::device_vector<int2> b = a;
int2 init;
init.x = init.y = 0;
int2 ave = thrust::reduce(b.begin(), b.end(), init, add_int2());
ave.x /= N;
ave.y /= N;
std::cout << ave.x << " " << ave.y << std::endl;
return 0;
}
