# How can I modify the interval of the function Image[]?

I think the default interval is [0,1]. when I have all positives I find it easy to rescale but when I included negative values it doesn't give me the results that I expect. for example how can I change the interval to [-1,1] ?? Thank you very much

Could you give a simple example of what result you would expect? –  Rojo Jul 13 '14 at 17:02
Rescale[..., {-1, 1}] doesn't work for you? –  Rahul Jul 13 '14 at 17:06
let say I have Image[{{0.5000, 0.7143, -3.0000}, {0, -0.28570, 0} {0, 0, 1.0000}}] then what I need would be to have the intensity color go from -1 to 1 –  user18475 Jul 13 '14 at 17:40
so -3 would correspond to -1 and the largest number 1 would correspond to 1. Pretty much I am trying to normalize my data to [-1,1]. Thank you ! –  user18475 Jul 13 '14 at 17:44
As mentioned by Rahul Narain Rescale should do the job. Be aware that using Image[] afterwards still clips the portion of the intensity values outside [0,1] for viewing purposes (not in the internal representation). Using ImageAdjust on an image will rescale the values to [0,1]. –  Wizard Jul 13 '14 at 17:56
