MathWorks offers AI-assisted image and video labeling tools in its Computer Vision Toolbox, using the Segment Anything Model (SAM 2) and Grounding DINO to automatically generate pixel-level labels for training deep learning models. These tools are available to licensed users of the toolbox.
In the Image Labeler and Video Labeler apps, users can invoke SAM 2 to automatically segment objects in images or videos by clicking or drawing regions of interest, or by segmenting an entire image automatically. Separately, Grounding DINO allows users to create bounding box labels for object detection by typing descriptive text (e.g., 'car' or 'person') rather than drawing manually. The output is labeled ground truth data used to train or evaluate deep learning models. These capabilities require the Image Processing Toolbox and Deep Learning Toolbox licenses.
MathWorks offers the Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox, a product that allows users to build, train, and deploy predictive machine learning models using interactive apps and programmatic tools directly in MATLAB. It has been available for many years and is continuously updated.
The toolbox provides functions and apps for descriptive statistics, clustering, regression, and classification. Users can interactively train models — including support vector machines, boosted decision trees, and shallow neural networks — using the Classification Learner and Regression Learner apps, or programmatically using AutoML. It supports feature extraction from images, signals, text, and numeric data, and includes dimensionality reduction methods such as PCA. Models can be deployed to IT systems via MATLAB Compiler or converted to C code for embedded devices using MATLAB Coder.
MathWorks deployed Polyspace Copilot, a generative AI assistant for the Polyspace embedded code analysis product, as part of Release 2026a in April 2026. It helps software engineers understand and fix coding defects and standards violations detected in C and C++ code.
Polyspace Copilot operates as a plugin within the Visual Studio Code IDE via the Polyspace as You Code extension. It provides tailored explanations of detected coding issues — including violations of MISRA C:2023, MISRA C++:2023, and CERT C/C++ standards — and suggests code fixes in natural language. Users can also ask questions about Polyspace capabilities and receive documentation-grounded answers. The tool supports multilingual interaction.
