Hi there,
I do have a batch of image files. I do know how to save them in a folder using the directory option. However, I need to know if I can save the output image with the same title as input image using a loop as it will be a batch process and therefore; I do not want to process one image and save it manually each time.
As for example if my input image is (lets say : image-10-00, image-10-01, image_10_02 >>> I can save them as process_1, process_2,process_3 serially but not exactly as the same input image title).
Any advice will be appreciated.

Siam - If you want to use the same image file name (or a variation of it), then try the following - use fileparts to get the path, name of the file, and extension, and work from there
filename = '/Users/geoff/somePath/image-00-001.jpg';
[folderName,name,ext] = fileparts(filename);
In this example, we see that the three fileparts output parameters are set to
folderName =
/Users/geoff/somePath
name =
image-00-001
ext =
.jpg
You can now build the new file name as
newFileName = sprintf('%s_1%s',name,ext);
fullFileName = fullfile(folderName, newFileName);
which will set fullFileName to be
fullFileName =
/Users/geoff/somePath/image-00-001_1.jpg
Or, you can replace the folderName with a new destination folder, and keep the original file name.

Yes, it is the name of the file.
You have already given me the answer.
This is what I am looking for.
Thank you very much.
