use otsu's threshold in a for loop that goes through the entire stack of a tiff image in matlab

To use Otsu's threshold in a for loop that goes through the entire stack of a TIFF image in MATLAB, you can follow these steps:

1. Read the TIFF image stack using the imread and imfinfo functions.
2. Create an empty output stack of the same dimensions and data type as the input stack.
3. Loop through each frame of the input stack using a for loop.
4. Apply Otsu's threshold to the current frame using the graythresh function.
5. Convert the current frame to binary using the imbinarize function with the threshold obtained from Otsu's method.
6. Store the binary output frame in the corresponding index of the output stack.

Here's the code that implements the above algorithm:

main.m
% Read TIFF image stack
info = imfinfo('input_stack.tif');
num_images = numel(info);
input_stack = zeros(info(1).Height, info(1).Width, num_images, 'uint8');
for k = 1:num_images
    input_stack(:, :, k) = imread('input_stack.tif', k);
end

% Create empty output stack
output_stack = zeros(size(input_stack), 'logical');

% Loop through each frame and apply Otsu's threshold
for k = 1:num_images
    frame = input_stack(:, :, k);
    threshold = graythresh(frame);
    binary_frame = imbinarize(frame, threshold);
    output_stack(:, :, k) = binary_frame;
end

Note that the output_stack variable is of data type logical because the output of imbinarize is a binary image with pixel values of either 0 or 1.
