Hi,
i am trying to compute a normal function for all pixels on the image ,
m = mean(I(:));
segma = std (I(:));
fb1=(exp(-abs((I(i)-m).^2)./2.*segma.^2))% Feature based1
fb2=(exp(-abs((I(j)-m).^2)./2.*segma.^2))% Feature based 2
it returns zeros,am i clculating the mean and the std in wrong way !!
Thanks

Using Symbolic Math Toolbox, we can see what exp(-850) and exp(-950) would be, displayed to 20 digits.
>> vpa(exp(sym([-850; -950])), 20)
ans =
7.0744125465834323713e-370
2.6317352159005409842e-413
The smallest positive double precision number is not quite that small.
>> eps(0)
ans =
4.9407e-324

Assuming that ‘I’ is single or double, and not uint8 (that would throw an error for std), the most likely possibility is that the exp argument is very large.

On my computer, the realmin function returns 2.225073858507201e-308, corresponding to exp(-708.396418532264). The exponential function of any value less than -708.396418532264 will return zero. (Even the Symbolic Math Toolbox with its extended resolution returns zero.)
