How to solve the error?

when I run the code:

function [shape] = Classify(ImageFile)
if ndims(imread(ImageFile))>2
RGB = imread(ImageFile);
GRAY = rgb2gray(RGB);
else
  GRAY=imread(ImageFile);
  RGB=GRAY;
end

threshold = graythresh(GRAY);
BW = im2bw(GRAY, threshold);

%Invert the Binary Image
BW = ~ BW;
[~,L] = bwboundaries(BW, 'noholes');

STATS = regionprops(L,'all'); 

for i=1:length(STATS)

if norm([STATS(i).Extrema(2,1), STATS(i).Extrema(2,2)]-[STATS(i).Extrema(1,1), STATS(i).Extrema(1,2)])<5 %TR,TL
  %can be triangle hexagon pentagon
  if norm([STATS(i).Extrema(4,1), STATS(i).Extrema(4,2)]-[STATS(i).Extrema(3,1), STATS(i).Extrema(3,2)])<5 %RT,RB
  %can be pentagon triangle
      if  norm([STATS(i).Extrema(4,1), STATS(i).Extrema(4,2)]-[STATS(i).Extrema(5,1), STATS(i).Extrema(5,2)])<5 %RT,RB,BR = Triangle
          shape(i,1)=1; % Triangle
      else
          shape(i,1)=3; % Pentagon
      end
  else
       shape(i,1) = 4; % hexagon
  end
elseif (STATS(i).MajorAxisLength/STATS(i).MinorAxisLength<1.1 && STATS(i).Eccentricity <0.5 || (STATS(i).Solidity/STATS(i).Extent)==1)&(STATS(i).Area<0.1*numel(GRAY))
  shape(i,1)=2; % Rectangle
else
  shape(i,1)=0;
end
end

if ~isempty(find(shape==2))
  disp('Rectangle found');
else
  disp('No rectangle in the image')
end

return

I've the error "??? Input argument "ImageFile" is undefined.

How to solve it?

Answer 1

[Azzi Abdelmalek]

How did you run this code?

This file is a function, it should be called: in the windows Matlab command, type

shape = Classify(ImageFile)

Look at Function

[Shaila parvin]

this shape function will be called from Classify.m file. Right?

[Shaila parvin]

BW = ~ BW;

What does it mean?

[Jan]

@Sahila parvin: This toggles the value of the black&white pixels.

Answer 2

[Image Analyst]

Put this at the beginning of your function:

if nargin < 1
  [baseFileName, folder] = uigetfile();
  ImageFile = fullfile(folder, baseFileName);
end

[Shaila parvin]

my basefile is circle.jpg and folder is E:\4-1\image-thesis\implementation\shaila

what I've to write?

if nargin < 1

[circle.jpg, E:\4-1\image-thesis\implementation\shaila] = uigetfile();

ImageFile = fullfile(E:\4-1\image-thesis\implementation\shaila, circle.jpg);

end

Please help me to write it in correct format.

Why didn't you do what I said? It would have worked. You changed it so that it won't/can't work! uigetfile() returns what you chose into two variables, so you can't hard code some variables into there - they will be filled with whatever filename the user selects.
