m working on matlab gui. how can we specify the user defined function. and call this function in the program. explanation is as below:

i m using the switch statement and i have added the following functions in the popup menu:

intensity, blur moment, zernike moments and others

i've the .m file of these functions. when i choose the blur invariant from popup menu then it will the call the .m file function having the name of the function is blurIInvariants having 7 arguments in it..

similarly, when i choose zernike moment then it will call the .m file with the name of the function as zernikMoments having 3 arguments in it and so on.

it is very time consuming to list all the functions in popupmenu and then placing in switch statement.

i want that when i choose the OTHERS option from popup menu after pressing the OTHER pushbutton then it will ask the name of function and its number of arguments.

i.e if the i entered the name of the function as localPattern number of arguments 3 then

the code sholud be

   LBP=localPattern(oneblock,2,3)

here 2 and 3 are the values of the second and third argument of the function respectively.

similarly if a enetred a function name with 4 arguments then it should be adjusted automatically. in other words arguments of the function should be changed accordingly.

i donot know can u tell me how to do so?

How would the program know what argument content to pass to the function name that the user had arbitrary chosen?
