I'm doing an project in matlab software and my data set having more than 1 lakh images so can you prefer any best laptop for this processing in i7

I'm doing an project on Alzheimer's disease with an osias dataset which is having nearly 1 lakh images so to process this i5 system is going too slow so prefer me which system is best to perform this operation and for future use. I'm planning to take i7 is this ok for working these dataset.

I think you do not understand. Moving from an i5 to an i7 will improve things. Multiple cores, lots of memory will be nice, even necessary. But you are talking about on the order of 100,000 images. And the problems you have today will only grow larger, because next month you will just get more images and larger images. (John's law: Computer problems always expand to be just a bit larger than can be handled with the computing hardware available.)
Even if you can process one image every couple of seconds (that is read in the image, process it, move on to the next one) then 100,000 images will still take days to process. And you can figure this out too. How much time does it currently take to import an image and process it off your network? Now do some basic math. Use bench on your current system. Then look at the benchmarks (given by bench as a comparison) for the i7 system you are thinking about buying. What speed boost will you get?
And that means an i7 prcessor will not make you happy. Your target in this is to spend money to make you less unhappy. There is no best laptop for this.
You need to find a system with sufficient RAM, multiple cores. And fast storage access, since much time may be spent in just reading in an image. If you need to read in that image over a network. import time may even be your worst bottleneck. Since this will likely be sitting there crunching for many many hours at a time, a laptop may not be the best choice. You need something with a fan.
In the end, you can figure out what you need, but you need to learn where the time will be spent, and that will drive your system requirements.
