Tested on matlab R2009b.

Installation Notes :

1) After you unzipped the files to mydir, 
   put the Current Directory in Matlab to mydir

2) In the matlab command prompt,
   type compileDir_simple to compile the mex files (ignore the error on the C++ non-mex file; needs to be done once)

3) You can now try any of the functions

type demoNcutImage to see a demo of image segmentation
type demoNcutClustering to see a demo of point cloud clustering


Other top level functions:

NcutImage.m: given image "I", segment it into "nbSegments" segments
    [SegLabel,NcutDiscrete,NcutEigenvectors,NcutEigenvalues,W]= NcutImage(I,nbSegments);
    
ICgraph.m: compute Intervening Contour based pixel similarity matrix W
    W = ICgraph(I);
    
ncutW.m: Given a similarity graph "W", computes Ncut clustering on the graph into "nbSegments" groups;
    [NcutDiscrete,NcutEigenvectors,NcutEigenvalues] = ncutW(W,nbSegments);


Release notes:

2006, May 04: release version 8: fixed incompatibility issues with new matlab
2004, June 18: release version 7: initial release
