Create DenseMatrix with more than two dimensions

[Fonso]

Hi.

I am a newbie in Scala and breeze and my question probably will be very silly but I couldn't a solution.

I work with images and apply different algorithms to them in order to analyse his content. I need to create matrix with more of two dimensions, the objective is store for each pixel the result of different algorithms, by example: create a 512x512x4 matrix.

I tried to used DenseMatrix to create the matrix but I obtain the error: error: overloaded method constructor DenseMatrix with alternatives: cannot be applied to (Int, Int, Int).

Is there some way in breeze to create this type of matrix?

Thanks in advance.

breeze doesn't have higher-order tensors right now, sorry.

It comes up a lot and I'd love to have them, but I haven't gotten there yet, and nor has anyone else.

Thanks for the answer.

Best regards.

One thing I can make in my problem in order to be able to use Breeze, it is the final three dimensional matrix can be calculate combining different two dimensional matrix. By example:

IM(512,512) -> original image

IM1(512,512) -> result of apply algorithm 1 to original image

IM2(512,512) -> result of apply algorithm 2 to original image

IM3(512,512) -> result of apply algorithm 3 to original image

RES(512,512,3) -> matrix with the results of all algorithms

RES(:,:,1)=IM1

RES(:,:,2)=IM2

RES(:,:,3)=IM3

My objective is use DenseMatrix to create IM1, IM2, IM3, then create RES like Array[Array[Array[Double]]] and finally convert them from DenseMatrix to two dimensional Array in order to assign them to RES. But I am not able to convert the DenseMatrix to two dimensional array. I know toArray makes it but I obtain an one dimensional array.

Is there some way or method to convert a DenseMatrix to two dimensional array of scala?

Thanks.
