Answer 1

Try this:

% Specify the folder where the files live.
myFolder = 'D:\My Pictures\Misc'; % Wherever...
% Check to make sure that folder actually exists.  Warn user if it doesn't.
if ~isdir(myFolder)
  errorMessage = sprintf('Error: The following folder does not exist:\n%s', myFolder);
  uiwait(warndlg(errorMessage));
  return;
end
% Get a list of all files in the folder with the desired file name pattern.
filePattern = fullfile(myFolder, '*.PNG'); % Change to whatever pattern you need.
theFiles = dir(filePattern);
for k = 1 : length(theFiles)
  baseFileName = theFiles(k).name;
  fullFileName = fullfile(myFolder, baseFileName);
  fprintf(1, 'Now reading %s\n', fullFileName);
  % Now do whatever you want with this file name,
  % such as reading it in as an image array with imread()
  imageArray = imread(fullFileName);
  imshow(imageArray);  % Display image.
  drawnow; % Force display to update immediately.
  % Create a folder with the base file name
  [~, baseFileNameNoExt, ~] = fileparts(baseFileName);
  outputFolder = fullfile(myFolder, baseFileNameNoExt);
  if ~exist(outputFolder, 'dir')
    mkdir(outputFolder);
    fprintf('Created folder : %s\n', outputFolder);
  end
  % Prepare output filename
  outputFileName = fullfile(outputFolder, baseFileName);
  % Copy file to that folder
  copyfile(fullFileName, outputFileName);
  fprintf('    Copied %s to the folder called %s.\n', baseFileName, outputFolder);
end
