Region filling and Laplace’s equation 4

Today I want to show you how to use a linear system of 90,300 equations and 90,300 unknowns to get rid of a leaf.Earlier this month I told you how the function roifill was recently renamed to... read more >>

Comparing the geometries of bwboundaries and poly2mask 5

MATLAB user Meshooo asked a question on MATLAB Answers about a problem with the createMask function associated with impoly. Meshooo observed a discrepancy between the output of bwboundaries and the... read more >>

Don’t Photoshop it…MATLAB it! Image Effects with MATLAB (Part 4) 2

I'd like to welcome back guest blogger Brett Shoelson for the continuation of his series of posts on implementing image special effects in MATLAB. Brett, a contributor for the File Exchange Pick of the Week blog, has been doing image processing with MATLAB for almost 20 years now.... read more >>

Binary image convex hull – algorithm notes 9

Today I want to tell a little image processing algorithm story related to my post last week about the new bwconvhull function in the Image Processing Toolbox. The developer (Brendan)... read more >>

ROIPOLY – rectangular regions and logical indexing 26

Several readers commented on my recent roipoly and poly2mask posts, and I wanted to follow up on a couple of issues they raised. The first issue is a common point of confusion about ... read more >>

Antialiased polygon scan conversion: Are you interested? 19

In December I wrote several blogs about the algorithm underlying the poly2mask function. Basically, the algorithm uses a 5-by-5 subpixel grid and lays out the polygon along the edges of the... read more >>

POLY2MASK and ROIPOLY – Part 3

This is the final post in a series discussing the algorithm underlying Image Processing Toolbox functions poly2mask and roipoly. (See Part 1 and Part 2.) There are several desirable... read more >>

POLY2MASK and ROIPOLY – Part 1 19

This is the first of several blogs about the algorithm behind poly2mask and roipoly. poly2mask takes a set of polygon vertices and produces a binary mask image. The binary mask has 1s for... read more >>
