In my first year of writing this blog (2006!), I showed how to overlay a color onto an image based on a mask. This was the example I gave back then: I wrote a function called imoverlay to handle all... read more >>

Note: this blog post describes an image display feature that is new in R2019b. You can download this release from https://www.mathworks.com/downloads.This is my new favorite image: But that's just a... read more >>

I recently saw some code that transformed the RGB pixel values of an image into a Px3 matrix, such that each row contained the red, green, and blue color components of a single pixel. Today I want to... read more >>

Today I want to wrap up (for now) my series on multiresolution pyramids by showing you how to make this strange-looking fruit: This a slightly nontraditional demonstration of a technique... read more >>

In my April 2 post, I introduced multiresolution pyramids, and I explained my dissatisfaction with the function impyramid, which (sadly) I designed. (Aside: I had that post ready to go on April 1,... read more >>

Last time, I talked about the function impyramid and how I have been dissatisfied with it. (Confession: I designed it.) Today I want to present an alternative approach to creating a multiresolution... read more >>

I was noodling around recently with a future blog topic (multiresolution pyramids; stay tuned) when I was reminded of a recent addition to MATLAB: the function imtile, introduced in R2018b.This... read more >>

Today's blog post was inspired by an example written by my friend and Image Processing Toolbox developer, Alex Taylor. A few years back, Alex tinkered with using toolbox algorithms to achieve a... read more >>

Today I want to finish up my long-running discussion of Feret diameters. (Previous posts: 29-Sep-2017, 24-Oct-2017, 20-Feb-2018, and 16-Mar-2018.) Recall that the Feret diameter measures the... read more >>
