Spring is here in Natick and the tulips are blooming! While tulips appear only briefly here in Massachusetts, they provide a lot of bright and diverse colors and shapes. To celebrate this cheerful flower, here's some code to create your own tulip!
One of the starter prompts is about rolling two six-sided dice and plot the results. As a hobby, I create my own board games. I was able to use the dice rolling prompt to show how a simple roll and move game would work. That was a great surprise!
How to leave feedback on a doc page
Leaving feedback is a two-step process. At the bottom of most pages in the MATLAB documentation is a star rating.
Start by selecting a star that best answers the question. After selecting a star rating, an edit box appears where you can offer specific feedback.
When you press "Submit" you'll see the confirmation dialog below. You cannot go back and edit your content, although you can refresh the page to go through that process again.
Tips on leaving feedback
- Be productive. The reader should clearly understand what action you'd like to see, what was unclear, what you think needs work, or what areas were really helpful.
- Positive feedback is also helpful. By nature, feedback often focuses on suggestions for changes but it also helps to know what was clear and what worked well.
- Point to specific areas of the page. This helps the reader to narrow the focus of the page to the area described by your feedback.
What happens to that feedback?
Before working at MathWorks I often left feedback on documentation pages but I never knew what happens after that. One day in 2021 I shared my speculation on the process:
> That feedback is received by MathWorks Gnomes which are never seen nor heard but visit the MathWorks documentation team at night while they are sleeping and whisper selected suggestions into their ears to manipulate their dreams. Occassionally this causes them to wake up with a Eureka moment that leads to changes in the documentation.
I'd like to let you in on the secret which is much less fanciful. Feedback left in the star rating and edit box are collected and periodically reviewed by the doc writers who look for trends on highly trafficked pages and finer grain feedback on less visited pages. Your feedback is important and often results in improvements.
Drumlin Farm has welcomed MATLAMB, named in honor of MathWorks, among ten adorable new lambs this season!
📚 New Book Announcement: "Image Processing Recipes in MATLAB" 📚
I am delighted to share the release of my latest book, "Image Processing Recipes in MATLAB," co-authored by my dear friend and colleague Gustavo Benvenutti Borba.
This 'cookbook' contains 30 practical recipes for image processing, ranging from foundational techniques to recently published algorithms. It serves as a concise and readable reference for quickly and efficiently deploying image processing pipelines in MATLAB.
Gustavo and I are immensely grateful to the MathWorks Book Program for their support. We also want to thank Randi Slack and her fantastic team at CRC Press for their patience, expertise, and professionalism throughout the process.
___________
A colleague said that you can search the Help Center using the phrase 'Introduced in' followed by a release version. Such as, 'Introduced in R2022a'. Doing this yeilds search results specific for that release.
Seems pretty handy so I thought I'd share.

Hello MATLAB community,
I am doing some image processing with MATLAB and some issues with my coding. I just like to warn you that I am very new at coding and MATLAB so I apologise in advance for my low level and I would be very glad to have some help as I have hitted a wall, and can't find a solution to my problem.
Context: I have a video of beams, that move right to left over time. The base is fixed, only the beam moves. I converted the video to images, and my MATLAB program is going through the image file and treating every image in it. Here are two image examples:
and 
I want to measure the following things:
a. The coordinates between the 2 extremities of the beam (length of the beam, without its base), let's call them A and B.
b. The bending deformation E (L0-Lt/L0 *100), obtained by calculating the distance between A and B, called Lt.
c. the curvature of the beam (1/R), obtained by extracting the radius R of a circle fitting the curvature of the beam.
d. The angle between a vertical line passing through A, and the line AB.
What I have done so far:
My approach has been to transform my image into an rgbimage, then binaryImage, then have the complementary image, apply some modifications/corrections to the image, and then skeletonize it. And from then, I extract the coordinates of A and B, the distance between A&B (Lt), the radius of the beam R, and the angle between A&B (T).
My main issue is the skeletonisation. Because my beam is quite thick, it shortens up too much my beam, and in an inconcistent manner. So then my results are completly wrong. Here is an image of the different images and operation I have done and the result:
So as you can see, the length is shorter. I would like to have a skeleton that meets the edges of the beam to calculate the end points.
I have tried "bwskel(BW, 'MinBranchLength', 30)" and "bwmorph(BW, 'thin', inf)", and this: https://uk.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/11123-better-skeletonization. But the problem remains the same. I have tried regionpropos, but the major axis they return is too long, I have tried bwferet(), but the maxlength is in diagonal of the beam... I have running out of ideas.
Problem: So I guess my main problem is how can I get a skeletonisation that goes to the edges of the beam?
Here is my code:
for i = TrackingStart:TrackingEnd
FileRGB(:,:,i) = rgb2gray(imread(IMG)); % Convert to grayscale
croppedRGB = FileRGB(y3left:y3right, x3left:x3right, i);
binaryImage = imbinarize(croppedRGB, 'adaptive', 'ForegroundPolarity','dark','Sensitivity', 0.50);
out = nnz(~binaryImage);
while out <= 4300 % Change threshold if needed
for j = 1:50
sensitivity = 0.50 + j * 0.01;
binaryImage = imbinarize(croppedRGB, 'adaptive', 'ForegroundPolarity', 'dark', 'Sensitivity', sensitivity);
out = nnz(~binaryImage);
if out >= 4325
break; % Exit the loop if the condition is met
end
end
end
% Create a line Model
BW = imcomplement(binaryImage);
BW(y1left:y1right, x1left:x1right) = 1; % there is always sample at the junction area (between beam and base)
BW(y2left:y2right, x2left:x2right) = 0; % Always = 0 if no sample here
BW = bwmorph(BW, 'close', Inf);
BW = bwmorph(BW, 'bridge');
BW = bwareafilt(BW, 1);
s = regionprops(BW, 'FilledImage');
BW = s.FilledImage;
BW = bwskel(BW, 'MinBranchLength', 30);
endpoints = bwmorph(BW, 'endpoints');
[y_end, x_end] = find(endpoints == 1);
%Degree of bending deformation method
Lt = sqrt(power(x_end(1)-x_end(2),2)+power(y_end(1)-y_end(2),2));
if x_end(2) > x_end(1)
Lt = -Lt;
end
Lstore(i) = Lt;
%Curvature method
[row_dots_cir, col_dots_cir, val] = find(BW == 1);
[xc(i),yc(i),Rstore(i),a] = circfit(col_dots_cir,row_dots_cir);
%Angle method
slope_endpoints = (x_end(1) - x_end(2)) / (y_end(1) - y_end(2));
angle_radians = atan(slope_endpoints);
angle_degrees = rad2deg(angle_radians);
if x_end(2) > x_end(1)
angle_degrees = -angle_degrees;
end
Tstore(i) = angle_degrees;
i
end
I found this plot of words said by different characters on the US version of The Office sitcom. There's a sparkline for each character from pilot to finale episode.
I have question about using 'bnlssm' object when the problem involves time-varying coefs. Per this documentation https://www.mathworks.com/help/econ/bnlssm.html , bnlssm allows the transition matrix to be a nonlinear function of the past values of the state vector, while also being time-varying --, i.e. A_t(x_{t-1}). However the documentation contains an example of the parameter mapping function for a fixed coef. case only:
function [A,B,C,D,Mean0,Cov0,StateType] = paramMap(theta)
A = @(x)blkdiag([theta(1) theta(2); 0 1],[theta(3) theta(4); 0 1])*x;
B = [theta(5) 0; 0 0; 0 theta(6); 0 0];
C = @(x)log(exp(x(1)-theta(2)/(1-theta(1))) + ...
exp(x(3)-theta(4)/(1-theta(3))));
D = theta(7);
Mean0 = [theta(2)/(1-theta(1)); 1; theta(4)/(1-theta(3)); 1];
Cov0 = diag([theta(5)^2/(1-theta(1)^2) 0 theta(6)^2/(1-theta(3)^2) 0]);
StateType = [0; 1; 0; 1]; % Stationary state and constant 1 processes
end
Here, A and C are recognised as function handles and show the dimension of 1-by-1 when [A,B,C,D]=paramMap(theta) is run with a given theta. This does not prevent filter/smooth from returning the states estimates, as the function handles become m-by-m matices when the function handles are evaluated.
However, whenever I try replaceing A with a cell array, e.g.:
A=cell(T,1);
for t=1:T
A{t} = @(x)blkdiag([theta(1) theta(2); 0 1],[theta(3) theta(4); 0 1])*x;
end
bnlssm.fixcoeff throws an error that the dimensions of Mean0 are expected to be 1, per validation step in lines 700-707 of 'bnlssm.m':
if iscellA; At = A{1};
else; At = A; end
numStates0 = size(At,2);
if
isscalar(mean0)
mean0 = mean0(ones(numStates0,1),:);
elseif
~isempty(mean0)
mean0 = mean0(:);
validateattributes(mean0,{'numeric'},{'finite','real','numel',numStates0},callerName,'Mean0');
end
Q: Is it just overlook by MathWorks programmers and creating local verions of bnlssm/filter/smooth with that validation step removed is a viable pathway forward, or is it intentional because 'bnlssm' was in fact designed to handle only the time-invariant coef. case correctly?

Dear MATLAB contest enthusiasts,
I believe many of you have been captivated by the innovative entries from Zhaoxu Liu / slanderer, in the 2023 MATLAB Flipbook Mini Hack contest.
Ever wondered about the person behind these creative entries? What drives a MATLAB user to such levels of skill? And what inspired his participation in the contest? We were just as curious as you are!
We were delighted to catch up with him and learn more about his use of MATLAB. The interview has recently been published in MathWorks Blogs. For an in-depth look into his insights and experiences, be sure to read our latest blog post: Community Q&A – Zhaoxu Liu.
But the conversation doesn't end here! Who would you like to see featured in our next interview? Drop their name in the comments section below and let us know who we should reach out to next!

Dear members, I’m currently doing research on the subject of using Generative A.I. as a digital designer. What our research group would like to know is which ethical issues have a big impact on the decisions you guys and girls make using generative A.I.
Whether you’re using A.I. or not, we would really like to know your vision and opinion about this subject. Please empty your thoughts and oppinion into your answers, we would like to get as much information as possible.
Are you currently using A.I. when doing your job? Yes, what for. No (not yet), why not?
Using A.I., would you use real information or alter names/numbers to get an answer?
What information would or wouldn’t you use? If the client is asking/ordering you to do certain things that go against your principles, would you still do it because order is order? How far would you go?
Who is responsible for the outcome of the generated content, you or the client?
Would you still feel like a product owner if it was co-developed with A.I.?
What we are looking for is that we would like to know why people do or don’t use AI in the field of design and wich ethical considerations they make. We’re just looking for general moral line of people, for example: 70% of designers don’t feel owner of a design that is generated by AI but 95% feels owner when it is co-created.
So therefore the questions we asked, we want to know the how you feel about this.
Hello,
if anyone can help me on this subject
I'm at engineering school and I'm working on a project where we have to determine the condition of an industrial chimney (presence of rust/cracks). To do this, we capture the chimney and then process the image to determine whether the section photographed has any defects. I tried a first code with different tools:
-Contour detection with Canny Edge
-Segmentation using Thresholding
-Morphological analysis
I didn't have much success, as some of the photos show welds, but it only detects welds and not cracks.
I've started looking into CNNs but I don't know if it's necessary.
I enclose a photo of the chimney
Thanks in advance
Temporary print statements are often helpful during debugging but it's easy to forget to remove the statements or sometimes you may not have writing privileges for the file. This tip uses conditional breakpoints to add print statements without ever editing the file!
What are conditional breakpoints?
Conditional breakpoints allow you to write a conditional statement that is executed when the selected line is hit and if the condition returns true, MATLAB pauses at that line. Otherwise, it continues.
The Hack: use ~fprintf() as the condition
fprintf prints information to the command window and returns the size of the message in bytes. The message size will always be greater than 0 which will always evaluate as true when converted to logical. Therefore, by negating an fprintf statement within a conditional breakpoint, the fprintf command will execute, print to the command window, and evalute as false which means the execution will continue uninterupted!
How to set a conditional break point
1. Right click the line number where you want the condition to be evaluated and select "Set Conditional Breakpoint"
2. Enter a valid MATLAB expression that returns a logical scalar value in the editor dialog.
Handy one-liners
Check if a line is reached: Don't forget the negation (~) and the line break (\n)!
~fprintf('Entered callback function\n')
Display the call stack from the break point line: one of my favorites!
~fprintf('%s\n',formattedDisplayText(struct2table(dbstack)))
Inspect variable values: For scalar values,
~fprintf('v = %.5f\n', v)
~fprintf('%s\n', formattedDisplayText(v)).
Make sense of frequent hits: In some situations such as responses to listeners or interactive callbacks, a line can be executed 100s of times per second. Incorporate a timestamp to differentiate messages during rapid execution.
~fprintf('WindowButtonDownFcn - %s\n', datetime('now'))
Closing
This tip not only keeps your code clean but also offers a dynamic way to monitor code execution and variable states without permanent modifications. Interested in digging deeper? @Steve Eddins takes this tip to the next level with his Code Trace for MATLAB tool available on the File Exchange (read more).
