If you're into multiple view geometry and computer vision and you're looking for a funny, enjoyable 3 min 15 sec diversion, you might want to look at The Fundamental Matrix Song. Very creative!
If you know of other image processing or computer vision bursts of creativity, please post them here in the comments. Thanks!

Hi folks,
You might be interested in Kelly's example showing how to get Gulf of Mexico oil-spill images using the WMS (Web Map Service) features in the Mapping Toolbox. The example is over on Loren's Art of MATLAB blog.

MathWorker Ned Gulley, whom some of you may know from his involvement in the MATLAB Contest, met Chris Scaffidi recently. Chris is a researcher at Oregon State specializing in "end-user programming." From what I understand, this term refers to programming by people who don't think of themselves as programmers.
One of Chris' research topics is code [...]

Last fall I started posting occasionally about Fourier transforms. This topic causes much confusion, which is particularly unfortunate given how many people are interested in it.
I speculate that the fundamental source of confusion is that there are really several different (but related) transforms that

Earlier this week I posted some relative speed improvement charts for some functions in the Image Processing Toolbox that got faster in R2010a.
Below are some more charts. I've included applylut, bwulterode, ifanbeam, imclearborder, imdilate, imerode, medfilt2, rangefilt, and stdfilt.
There are other functions that have gotten faster in the last couple of releases, including bwpack, bwselect, [...]

Last month we shipped R2010a, the first of our two releases this year. R2010a includes version 7.0 of Image Processing Toolbox, a major update.
For the last several releases we've been working on improving the performance of various toolbox functions, and R2010a continues the trend. I want to show you a few plots of the cumulative [...]
