I am trying to replicate an experiment that has originally been done in Python, with Matlab. I would like to generate a bunch of circles of different sizes, colors and opacity and overlay them on top of each other inside a blank canvas. I would like to know if that is possible to be done in Matlab and what kind of commands I will need to use. For more details regarding the experiment please check the below link:

In MATLAB a "canvas" is called axes. Within axes can be displayed images or any data plotted. Empty axes are created simply using the axes command:

axes

You can then add/remove your circles inside these axes by using the patch command, or any other plotting command. You can access the current axes handle using gca .

Note that an axes does not exist by itself alone, but is always within a figure.

I think that you should probably approach this using the patch command. This will allow you to specify circles with your desired parameters. The keyword alpha will allow you to control opacity.

% Size of circle
r = 5;
% Opacity
a = 0.1;
% Color
c = 'r';
theta = 0:0.1:2*pi;
x = r*cos(theta);
y = r*sin(theta);
patch(x, y, c, 'facealpha', a, 'edgecolor', c, 'edgealpha', a);

The additional argument of edgecolor and edgealpha make sure that the edge of the circle matches the interior.

Thanks Chris for your answer. But I still need to know if I will be able to create a blank canvas. I need to create let's say 100 random circles and overlay them inside a blank canvas. Is that possible? If so, how can I create that blank canvas, and how can I put the circles inside it?
