Consider N I-dimensional input column vectors. Each is associated with 1 of c distinct classes and a corresponding c-dimensional {0,1} unit column vector obtained from a column of the unit matrix eye(c).
 
The corresponding dimensions of the input and target matrices are
 
 [ I N ] = size(input)
 [ c N ] = size(target)
The correspondence between the true class indices in {1:c} and c-dimensional unit target column vectors is via
 
 
 target = full(ind2vec(trueclassindices))

 trueclassindices = vec2ind(target)
For example
 
>> trueclassindices = [ 5 2 3 1 4 ]
 
>> target = full(ind2vec(trueclassindices))
 
yields
 
trueclassindices =
     5     2     3     1     4

target =

     0     0     0     1     0
     0     1     0     0     0
     0     0     1     0     0
     0     0     0     0     1
     1     0     0     0     0
PATTERNNET TRAINS the generic feedforward neural network FEEDFORWARDNET to map each input vector into it's corresponding target vector.

and run the example.
 
Then search for some of my examples from BOTH the NEWSGROUP and ANSWERS
