Hello..I think there is another function called median in your folder. What does which median return?

The error message tells clearly, that the problem appears inside the function rjpg8c(filename). Why do you assume, that the calculation of the median is the problem? Please post the complete error message. Most of all the failing line is important. What happens inside rjpg8c?

Error using rjpg8c Out of memory. Type HELP MEMORY for your options. Error in readjpg (line 11) A = rjpg8c(filename) this is the error which i got while executing it....

While executing what?

rjpg8c and readjpg are functions called by imread when reading an 8-bit jpg image.

If you get an out of memory error in these functions, it must be because you're trying to read an image that takes too much memory for your machine. There's not much you can do about it other than adding more memory to your machine (or freeing memory used by other programs) or reading smaller images.

Note that this is absolutely nothing to do with the built-in matlab median function. If you get this error when calling median, it is thus because you've created your own median function in one of the folders on the path. If so, don't do that!
