Customizable Heat Maps

24 May 2009

Display matrices as heat maps with full control over a number of visualization properties

File Information
Description	HEATMAP displays a matrix as an image whose color intensities reflect the magnitude of its values. In addition, it enables you to specify the following properties: * X- and Y-axes tick labels: Display the row/column indices or any other numerical or text information. For example, the Y-tick labels could display the mean of each row in the matrix. * Text labels: Display formatted numerical values in the original matrix, a new matrix for added dimensionality or a matrix of strings. Control the font size and font color of the labels. * Custom color maps: Use MATLAB's default color maps or specify your own. The function provides two additional color maps - "money" (shown in the example image) and "red" (a color map of red color intensities). Specify Linear or Logarithmic color maps and the number of color levels. You can even use different color maps for different heat maps within a figure. * Other configurable parameters such as grid lines, color bars.
