Extreme points finding from set

d = xlsread('FaceFour_TRAIN.xlsx')
s = d(1:1,2:end);
fa = movstd(s,20,1);
secarray = movstd(fa,20,1) ;
secidx = find(secarray>.04);
f = secarray(secidx);
[maxvals, maxidx] = maxk(f,14);
sidx = secidx(maxidx);
x = 1:length(s);
key=plot(x, s, 'b-', sidx, s(sidx), 'go')
here the maximum points are extracted and plotted.I need to check and find only the extreme points from this,how can I do this.Please help me.

Silpa - please clarify what you mean by extreme. Are these the minimum and maximum points, or something else?
The graph is like a wave.I mean the highest points that coming in the wave crest and wave trough.
The graph likeScreenshot (30).png
I suggested findpeaks in your duplicate post.
Sir Iam new to matlab.If I used findpeaks only the peaks are extracting.How can I find both peak points and all the mininimum troughs points.And that points I need to mark in the original graph.Please help me.
Thank you.
There are probably better ways, but if you do this
findpeak(-data)
you will find the local minima.
And once you have x and y, you should be able to plot those points.
Iam getting 1×0 empty double row vector when I use this.
Without your data and your code I can do nothing to help you. Have you read the documentation? I suspect it may return an empty vector is none of your peaks satisfy the requirements. Use the optional arguments to relax the requirements.
d = xlsread('FaceFour_TRAIN.xlsx')
s = d(1:1,2:end );
fa = movstd(s,20 );
secarray = movstd(fa,20 ) ;
sec = secarray(secarray>.04 );
k=maxk(sec,14)
peak points of k
Why those points are not extreme?

Sir,It is only a sample graph.I need to find all the extreme points(Present in the crust and trough)
HOw you define "extreme" point? Where is it?
The maximum peak points present in the crust and trough.If I use findpeaks(d),then iam not getting the answer.
1×0 empty double row vector is the output coming.

I suspect some combination of islocalmin, islocalmax, and/or ischange will identify the points you've called out with + markers in your plot. All three of these functions were introduced as part of MATLAB in release R2017b.
