Running MATLAB Programs on a webpage

I have a Matlab program for image analysis that I need to be able to be run on a website, allowing the general public without matlab to be able to use it.

What would be the best way to go about this? Can I have the server, which will have Matlab, run the code using an uploaded image and display the output to the user?

Thank you for your time, Erik Skorina

There are a couple of MATLAB products that are useful for the same. In addition with the MATLAB Compiler as mentioned above by Julian, you could also use MATLAB Builder JA (Java) or Builder NE (.NET) to serve webpages.

Builder NE

In particular, the WebFigures features might be of interest to you: http://www.mathworks.com/help/toolbox/dotnetbuilder/ug/brpoekx-2.html

It is easiest to share your analysis results from MATLAB via a web-page by using the Publish feature with the output sent to or copied onto a web server. Although this may not be quite the dynamic analysis that you would like - it probably requires your assistance for each update!

If you have the MATLAB compiler you can build a cgi script as described here http://www.mathworks.com/support/solutions/en/data/1-30REEY/?solution=1-30REEY although in my opinion MATLAB is somewhat heavy to be used in this way.

Running MATLAB from a webpage in a general sens is hard. Using MATLAB on the backend should be much easier. I would not have MATLAB display the image to the user, rather I would have MATLAB create an image file an let the webpage display that to the user.

Upload image > process with MATLAB > MATLAB creates image file > display new image file

Hi,

This is exactly what I am trying to do. Could you please provide some more details on how this could be done or point me to a demo in the File Exchange?

Thanks so much.

Hello Adnan,

Did you ever get this working? The work flow looks simple, but the second step in that is where everyone have questions about. Especially calling matlab from webserver, waiting for it to complete process.

thanks

You can use html and Javascript to access your matlab programs and display result in matlab browser. https://blogs.mathworks.com/community/2008/02/18/interactive-web-pages-in-matlab-part-2/

I do not understand how this solution will solve the original question?
