Hi all, I want to replace the mean value in the boxplot to the RMSE. as figure illustrates.
Thank you in advance

Sorry. the figure is uploaded. Yes, I want to marker the RMSE value in the boxplot instead of the mean(or median) value.

A boxplot marker is the median, NOT the mean...
To change this, you'll have to edit the box plot properties; there's a discussion in the help of finding the proper object via findobj and Tag values for the various options...

Here is an example of what dpb is proposing to do:

x = randn(1000,3);

figure
boxplot(x)
h = findobj(gca,'Tag','Median');
set(h,'Visible','off');

Notice that I have found the lines that are tagged as "Median", and turned off their visibility.

Now, you could add a marker or line (or whatever) to indicate the RMSE.

Actually, the reason is to make the compared RMSE of the data clear enough to understand with respect to the whole set. Mr. Cyclist, I did as you did but the calculated RMSE number is not illustrated in the plot. Could you please help me again? thank you

Don't just tell us what you did, show the code itself in question.
Actually, after Cyclist's fixup, perhaps scatter would be the trick--
hold on
hS=scatter(1:3,0.5*rand(1,3),'filled');
Ayup, that puts a marker in the near-middle of the three boxen; text could label it as well...
ADDENDUM
Actually, to do this, it would be better to delete the line mean objects and add the scatter points or replace the '[x|y]yData' properties of the mean line and set the marker style as wanted instead of just making them invisible. There's no sense in keeping unused objects hanging around.

Building off of Cyclist's demo and the comments I made earlier--
x = randn(1000,3);
boxplot(x)
h = findobj(gca,'Tag','Median');
set(h,{'xData'},{[1];[2];[3]}, ...
{'yData'},{[0.1];[0.2];[0.3]}, ...
'marker','*','color','k')
NB: the use of cell arrays to set multiple handles to disparate values in a single call to set. For demo I used hardcoded values but they can be variable, of course, and mat2cell can be helpful to build the proper shape.

No problem, glad to help... :)
BTW, you can eliminate the temporary handle variable array by folding findobj into set...
set(findobj(gca,'Tag','Median') ...
{'xData'},{[1];[2];[3]}, ...
{'yData'},{[0.1];[0.2];[0.3]}, ...
'marker','*','color','k')
Like the objects themselves if not being used, I dislike keeping unneeded temporaries...
