how to get the imdb.mat file using my own labeled images?

[ghost]

I have hundreds of images in several categories with labeled. my question is how to get the imdb.mat file using the original labeled images because i want to train my own model.

this is very simple, just see the examples provided in matconvnet

@ShuenLyu have a look at the cnn_imagenet_setup_data.m example. Basically, the function will return a structure named imdb with two main fields: imdb.images & imdb.classes. The IDs, names, training set labels, and class labels of your database images are set in the following fields respectively: imdb.images.id, imdb.images.name, imdb.images.set, imdb.images.label. The training set labels have 3 different values: {1,2,3}. The value 1 is associated with the training images, value 2 with validation images, and value 3 with testing Images. A description and name of the class labels in your dataset are set up in: imdb.classes.name and imdb.classes.description accordingly. You'll also need to specify your image directory: imdb.imageDir

@tinalegre Hi,i think this cnn_imagenet_setup_data.m example cannot solve my problem because the label information is in an excel file not like the that of the example. here is my problem that i have several hundreds original images in several catogries with labeled information in an excel file, I dont know how to use it and how to convert it to mat file. could you give me some advise.thanks very much.

Is there any one who can make a tutorial for making imdb.mat file with using his/her own labeled images? It is very imporant for me.

[JavierCoronel]

@Karakule I could help you if you give me more information about your data.

[Karakule]

Thank you very much @JavierCoronel. I have 7 type of classes . In each class I have 144 images(jpg format). Now I want to make imdb file then classify with some network. Actually I dont know how creating new netwolrk also.
