extractSubImage

function [new_img,crop,obj_location]=extractSubImage(img,box,crop_margin)
% extractSubImage - extracts the face from an image with a margin
% if the margin goes beyond the image, the last pixel will be continued
%
% Syntax:  [new_img,crop,obj_location]=extractSubImage(img,box,crop_margin)
%
% Inputs:
%    img - image (i.e. load with imread)
%    box - location of face (i.e. img(box(2):box(4),box(1):box(3),:))
%    crop_margin - margin around face as a fraction of the width, height
%                  [left above right below], default is [0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4]
%
% Outputs:
%    new_img - cropped face with margin
%    crop - coordinates in original image of the cropped region
%    obj_location - coordinates in cropped image of the cropped region
%
% Example:
% Getting all faces of the wikipedia dataset with default margin:
% load('wiki/wiki.mat');
% for i=1:length(wiki.dob)
%    fprintf('Cropping face %d/%d
',i,length(wiki.dob));
%    orig_img=imread(['wiki/' wiki.full_path{i}]);
%    cropped_face{i}=extractSubImage(orig_img,wiki.face_location{i});
% end
