title: manipulate a matlab file with python
body: <p>i have a .mat file containing annotations for some images, I need to read and manipulate specified values from this file using python and am stuck I tried to use h5py it doesn't work for me. with scipy I can read the file and print the whole file but I can't get a specified value.
  I captured the structure of my mat file using octave can anyone help me to get the BBox values for each ImgName and save them into a variable.
