Topic: Converting .mat file to Julia matrix

view this post on Zulip Dale Black (Feb 09 2022 at 22:37):

I am using MAT.jl to load a .mat file. I am receiving strange errors saying that the .mat file contains a ; but I can't seem to find it. Does anyone have any idea how to solve this problem?

Here is how I loaded the matrix into julia:

vars = matread(path)
mat = vars["s100"]
mat = Int16.(round.(mat))

And this is the output I am getting:

What is the error message? You seem to have successfully loaded and converted the data to Int16s?

Maybe you should be looking for

julia> Int16(';')
59

I am surprised it shows that the matrix contains a ; I guess, but I might be looking in the wrong direction. The error message is a little later on after I use this matrix to convert it to a DICOM file using DICOM.jl. If it helps this is the error message when trying to write this matrix as a DICOM file and then load it again:

ArgumentError: cannot parse ";" as Float64
