Download AAMToolbox

Download revised Nov2012 A problem with appearance modelling using Matlab 2012a and 2012b has been reported. We will repair it shortly. It appears to work with earlier versions of Matlab

AAMToolbox installation

Unzip the download into handy directory, e.g. myAAMToolbox. The result will be a directory called ShapeModelToolbox which contains:

AAMToolbox_Dependencies_outside_ShapeModelToolbox  
3DExtension                                         
AAMToolbox                                         
ConversionTools                                    
ModelBuilder3DTool                                 
TemplateBuilder3DTool                              
Utilities

The first subdirectory contains all the utility subroutines from our DArT_Toolshed that are used by the AAMToolbox but are not usually a part of the ShapeModelToolbox.

Fire up Matlab

Tell Matlab to include the ShapeModelToolbox in its path. What is a path? To see your current paths type

path

and lots of directories will whizz past in the command window. Any program - Matlab command - toolbox name - etc. that lies within a directory in one of these paths will be accessible to Matlab. We need to extend the paths to include everything in the ShapeModelToolbox by adding the paths. So type

addpath(genpath('myAAMToolbox\ShapeModelToolbox'));

If you are lucky and Matlab is installed correctly you can then save the new paths with

savepath

(If not then you might have to repeat the addpath command each time you launch Matlab.)
Check that it is working by typing

which AAMToolbox

and it should reply by saying where this file is. If all is OK then you are ready to run the AAMToolboxBold text type

AAMToolbox

and go to the first tutorial.
