Matlab Image Class v1.1.2

The aim of the Image class is to facilitate the manipulation of multi-dimensional images within Matlab. Multidimensional images (2D, 3D, time-lapse) of various types (grayscale, color, binary, label...) can be easily manipulated and processed in an unified way. Meta-data such as spatial calibration can be specified, and are taken into account for quantitative image analysis, making the package suitable for bio-image analysis.
Several methods encapsulate features from the Image Processing Toolbox, and some original ones are provided.

This version is mostly for providing an octave-packaged release.

New features

• enhanced the readSeries method
• kmeans can now be applied also to grayscale or intensity images, resulting in multi-level thresholding
• added orthogonalProjection method to compute min or max along main directions of 3D image
• method findLabels was renamed as findRegionLabels
• created methods regionCentroids, regionBoxes, regionEquivalentEllipsoids for analysis of regions in 2D/3D images
• fold/unfold methods provide better integration with the Table class (rquires the MatStats toolbox)
• added regionIsosurfaces for visualizing 3D label images
