color segmentation, opening by reconstruction, boundary tracing, polyshapesEarlier this summer, Cleve sent me this picture of a puzzle.He asked for tips on turning the individual "cheese slices" into... read more >>

Today I want to show you a handy little function, imsplit, for splitting color images into their components.Also, for no reason other than WOW, I want to show one of the images just released by the... read more >>

Today's post shows how to use ismember to conveniently locate all of the highest pixel values in an image. For example, in the following Hough transform image, what are the 20 highest values, and... read more >>

I'm still playing around with RGB gamut calculations in $ L^* a^* b^* $ space. (See my last post on this topic, "Visualizing out-of-gamut colors in a Lab curve.") Today's post features some new... read more >>

[TLDR: To create a fast GIF animation using imwrite, use a DelayTime of 0.02 instead of 0.]In my 28-Feb-2022 post, I showed some code that created an animated GIF file using a DelayTime of 0.im =... read more >>

The one and only Loren Shure has just announced her retirement from MathWorks. I met Loren in early 1993 at the International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing in... read more >>

It's March, and you know what that means --- that's right, the "a" release is here!On most work days, I use several different MATLAB versions, mostly development builds, on 2-3 different computers.... read more >>

I have written here, as well as in Digital Image Processing Using MATLAB, about using image processing operations to implement Conway's Game of Life. MATLAB creator Cleve Moler has written about... read more >>

I was looking today at an old post, "A Lab-based uniform color scale" (09-May-2006). I wanted to provide an update to illustrate that it is easier to convert from Lab to RGB colors now than it was... read more >>

Today, I'm continuing my recent theme of thinking about peak-finding in images. When I wrote the first one (19-Aug-2021), I didn't realize it was going to turn into a series. This might be the last... read more >>
