I want to implement low pass filter on Y, U and V bands of image by a factor of 3 in both horizontal and vertical directions. I write a code but i want to confirm that whether the code which I write is correct or not? Please confirm. Code is written below:
rgbImage = imread('fav.png');
R = rgbImage(:, :, 1);
G = rgbImage(:, :, 2);
B = rgbImage(:, :, 3);
Y = 0.299*R + 0.587*G + 0.114*B;
U = - 0.14713*R - 0.28886*G + 0.436*B;
V = 0.615*R - 0.51499*G - 0.10001*B;
subplot(2,2,1);
imshow(rgbImage);
title('Original Image');
hsize = 3;
H = fspecial('average', hsize);
filteredY = imfilter(Y, H);
subplot(2,2,2);
imshow(filteredY);
title('filteredY');
filteredU = imfilter(U, H);
subplot(2,2,3);
imshow(filteredU);
title('filteredU');
filteredV = imfilter(V, H);
subplot(2,2,4);
imshow(filteredV);
title('filteredV');

When you display the bands, what colormap are you wanting to use?

Hello,
Your code seems to work correctly and it certainly does low-pass filtering on Y, U and V. You can also however, try using the gaussian low pass filter and compare the result for different sigma values with the results from the averaging filter.
You can have a look at the documentation here:
