sub2blocksub

Create a small sample image as a 5-by-7 matrix of zeros. Here is an illustration of the small sample image, with the pixel coordinates of the four corners provided.

Create a blocked image from the sample image, specifying a 2-by-2 block size. To create this blocked image, use blockedImage in write mode.

bim = blockedImage([],[5 7],[2 2],uint8(0),Mode="w");

Here is an illustration of the blocked image overlaid on the original image. It is divided into 2-by-2 blocks. In the diagram, each block contains its block coordinates.

To determine which block contains a particular pixel, convert the pixel subscripts into block subscripts by using the sub2blocksub function. By default, if the image is a multiresolution image, then sub2blocksub uses pixel coordinates from coarsest level, although you can specify any level. Since the sample image has only one resolution level, sub2blocksub converts level 1.

[blocksub] = sub2blocksub(bim,[2 3])

blocksub = 1×2
