function [validx,validy]=automate_image(grid_x,grid_y,filenamelist,validx,validy);
% Code to start actual image correlation
% Programmed by Chris and Rob
% Last revision: 09/10/08
% The automation function is the central function and processes all markers and
% images by the use of the matlab function cpcorr.m.
% Therefore the Current directory in matlab has to be the folder where
% automate_image.m finds the filenamelist.mat, grid_x.dat and grid_y.dat as well
% as the images specified in filenamelist.mat. Just type automate_image; and
% press ENTER at the command line of matlab.
% At first, automate_image.m will open the first image in the filenamelist.mat and
% plot the grid as green crosses on top. The next step will need some time since
% all markers in that image have to be processed for the first image. After correlating
% image one and two the new raster positions will be plotted as red crosses. On top
% of the image and the green crosses. The next dialog will ask you if you want to
% continue with this correlation or cancel. If you press continue, automate_image.m
% will process all images in the filenamelist.mat. The time it will take to process
% all images will be plotted on the figure but can easily be estimated by knowing the
% raster point processing speed (see processing speed).
% Depending on the number of images and markers you are tracking, this process
% can take between seconds and days. For 100 images and 200 markers a decent
% computer should need 200 seconds. To get a better resolution you can always
% run jobs overnight (e.g. 6000 markers in 1000 images) with higher resolutions.
% Keep in mind that CORRSIZE which you changed in cpcorr.m will limit your
% resolution. If you chose to use the 15 pixel as suggested a marker distance of
% 30 pixel will lead to a full cover of the strain field. Choosing smaller marker
% distances will lead to an interpolation since two neighboring markers share
% pixels. Nevertheless a higher marker density can reduce the noise of the strain field.
% When all images are processed, automate_image will write the files validx.mat,
% validy.mat, validx.txt and validy.txt. The text files are meant to store the result in a
% format which can be accessed by other programs also in the future.
%
% Minor changes by Suren A. Chilingaryan <csa@dside.dyndns.org> to look for data
% files in sub directories.
