I want to point you to Damian's second guest blog post on Loren's Art of MATLAB. Scattered data interpolation and data gridding definitely have application to multiple areas in image processing, and... read more >>

I wrote last week about new features in R2009a related to connected component labeling. There are two new functions, bwconncomp and labelmatrix, as well as additional syntaxes for an existing... read more >>

This is a "small world" story for a mid-summer Friday. Outside work, family, and book writing, I like to play a little tournament chess. I'm just your middle-of-the-pack club player trying... read more >>

I've always had a kind of amateur's fascination with computational geometry, and computational geometry problems do arise in image processing from time to time. I've had just enough experience to... read more >>

Last week I wrote about our desire to reduce the memory used by bwlabel. I also wrote about other issues we hoped to address: The... read more >>

One of the changes we made to the Image Processing Toolbox for R2009a was partially inspired by comments received on this blog. Specifically, several blog readers complained about the... read more >>

Sometimes readers will tell me they had a hard time reproducing results from one of my blog posts, so let me tell you the easiest way to do it. Almost all of my posts that show MATLAB examples have... read more >>

I would like to remind readers about how I handle comments on this blog. (Please note that each MATLAB Central blog author handles comments somewhat differently.) I moderate all comments,... read more >>

Matt Whitaker asked me in a blog comment recently about the references I keep on my own shelf. Well, first of all I seem to keep fewer things on my bookshelves as the years go by. When I... read more >>

I just heard that the 2nd edition of Digital Image Processing Using MATLAB just shipped from the printer! Hurray! Now I'm using the satellite view in Google Maps to see if I can find the... read more >>
