Image Processing Toolbox

What Is the Image Processing Toolbox?

The Image Processing Toolbox is a collection of functions that extend the capability of the MATLAB^® numeric computing environment. The toolbox supports a wide range of image processing operations, including:

• Spatial image transformations
• Morphological operations
• Neighborhood and block operations
• Linear filtering and filter design
• Transforms
• Image analysis and enhancement
• Image registration
• Deblurring
• Region of interest operations

Many of the toolbox functions are MATLAB M-files, a series of MATLAB statements that implement specialized image processing algorithms. You can view the MATLAB code for these functions using the statement

• type function_name
  

You can extend the capabilities of the Image Processing Toolbox by writing your own M-files, or by using the toolbox in combination with other toolboxes, such as the Signal Processing Toolbox and the Wavelet Toolbox.

For a list of the new features in Version 3.0, see the Release Notes documentation.
