How to increase the contrast in an image, using imagesc, with removal of outliers.

6 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi,
I have data from a fits file that is displayed with the help of imagesc. The image is very dark (data range in [20 2200]). When I use imcontrast(gca) i can manually remove outliers, and if 0.01% of the outlieres is removed, the data range is [59 1175], and I get the desired contrast.
Is there any way to remove the outliers in the command window, as I have many files to be analysed?
p.s. I know i can use the command imagesc(data, [cmin cmax]),colormap(gray), but the problem is that I dont know cmin and cmax for the different images.
Any help appriciated,
Thank you
Ronni

Do you really want to remove outliers from your data, or do you want to keep them but just scale your image for display? Have you tried imadjust()? Or just passing in the display limits into imshow like imshow(yourImage, [42 123])?

Something like:
ndev = 3;
data_mean = mean(data(:));
data_std = std(data(:));
data_min = min(data(:));
data_max = max(data(:));
cmin = max( data_min, data_mean - ndev * data_std );
cmax = min( data_max, data_mean + ndev * data_std );
imagesc( data, [cmin, cmax] )

So go ahead and specify your own limits, using fixed values like I did, or come up with some algorithm like Walter did to derive the value. No one says you need to use his method.

cutout = 0.0001;
num_to_cut = ceil( numel(data) * cutout / 2);
sorted_data = sort(data(:));
cmin = sorted_data( num_to_cut );
cmax = sorted_data( end - num_to_cut + 1);
imagesc(data, [cmin, cmax]);
