Colorize
Colorize
[
m
]
generates an image from an integer matrix
m
, using colors for positive integers and black for non-positive integers.
Colorize
[
image
]
replaces intensity values in
image
with pseudocolor values.
MORE INFORMATION
Colorize
generates an 8-bit RGB image.
Colorize
generates a pseudocolor image from a full array of integer values and arbitrary images, showing 0s and negative values in black.
Colorize
takes the following options:
ColorFunction
Automatic
how each pixel should be colored
ColorFunctionScaling
True
whether to scale the argument to
ColorFunction
ImageSize
Automatic
the default displayed size of the image
EXAMPLES

Basic Examples
(1)
Random coloring of a map:
Random coloring of a map:
In[1]:=
Out[1]=
Scope
(1)
Colorize a grayscale image:
Options
(4)
Apply a color scheme to a map:
Colorize a grayscale image:
Use a pure function as the color function:
Specify the image size:
Possible Issues
(1)
All foreground pixels are colored the same in a binary image:
To highlight component using different colors, compute the connected components first:
Neat Examples
(2)
Random colors applied to a cellular automaton:
Running more steps of the cellular automaton:
Colorize segmented countries based on their area:
