How to plot continuous color plot in matlab representing a 2D array

[fparveen]

Hello,

I am trying to plot a 2D matrix for image reconstruction of head interior. I am using matlab contourf function. But the color plot doesn't look so good to me. Is there any suggestion for any other function/ method for this purpose?

Thanks in Advance.

Have a look at these functions for making good 3D surface plots. Try rotating the 3D view (in the MATLAB figure) to get the best angle.

Code Matlab M - [expand]
1
2
surf(X);
shading interp;

The shading interp part makes it look much smoother.

If you're not happy with the colours in general, you can change the colourmap. For example:

Code Matlab M - [expand]

2
contourf(X);
colormap(pink);
