% DECDEMO   Demonstrates contourlet decomposition and reconstruction. 
%
%   DECDEMO shows how to use the contourlet toolbox to decompose
%   and reconstruct an image.  It provides a sample script that uses 
%   basic functions such as pdfbdec, pdfbrec, showpdfb.
%
%   It can be modified for applications such as image analysis, 
%   image retrieval and image processing.
%
%   While displaying images, the program will pause and wait for your response.
%   When you are ready, you can just press Enter key to continue.
%
%       decdemo( [im, option] )
%
% Input:
%	image:  a double or integer matrix for the input image.
%           The default is the zoneplate image.
%   option: option for the demos. The default value is 'auto'
%       'auto' ------  automtatical demo, no input
%       'user' ------  semi-automatic demo, simple interactive inputs
%       'expert' ----  mannual, complete interactive inputs. 
%                      (Not implmented in this version)
%
% Output:
%	coeffs: a cell vector for the contourlet decomposition coefficients.
%

% History:
%   10/20/2003  Creation.
