use trainNetwork() function on a matrix of doubles

I want to feed my neural network a 2D matrix which contains the computed luminosity difference of an image sequence. I want to use the trainNetwork() function, but it can only work on data with standard image format and does not accept .mat files. Is there any ways that I could read from a .mat file and then feed the 2D matrix read from it into my neural network?

Thanks, Tianyi

As an preprocessing step as outlined here , you can convert the .mat file to .jpg format and then you can use the converted image as an input to the neural network.
