Connecting MATLAB GUI to .m file

I have a m file, which chops the signal and applies filter according to the cut off frequency(Fc).

M file:

classdef Container < handle
  properties
   segments = struct('signal', {}, 'time', {},'ref',{}); %empty structure with correct fields
 end

    methods
          function this = addsignal(this, signal, time,fc)
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%chopping of the signals%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
            interval = diff(time);
            [~, locations] = findpeaks(interval,'THRESHOLD',0.7);
            edges = [0; locations; numel(signal)+1];
            newsegments = struct('signal', cell(numel(edges)-1, 1), 'time', cell(numel(edges)-1, 1)); 
             %this loop works for no peaks, 1 peak and more than one peak (because of the 0 and numel+1)
             for edgeidx = 1 : numel(edges) - 1
                newsegments(edgeidx).signal = signal(edges(edgeidx)+1 : edges(edgeidx+1)-1);
                newsegments(edgeidx).time =   time(edges(edgeidx)+1 : edges(edgeidx+1)-1);
             end
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%filtering%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
             f = ltiFilter.PT1(); % another class which has filters
             f.Ts = mean(diff(time));
             f.fc = fc; % i want to set this value from the slider%%%%%
             f.zeroPhaseShift = 1;
             for i = 1:length(newsegments)
                 newsegments(i).ref = f.eval(newsegments(i).signal,newsegments(i).signal(1)); % application of the filter.
                 newsegments(i).ref = newsegments(i).ref';
             end

            this.segments = [this.segments; newsegments];
          end
     end  
end

I created a GUI which has a plot and a slider(for cut off frequcy) which is shown in code as

f.fc

when i created the GUI, Matlab automatically created a Code for me(i must say, I din't understand that much)

GUI code:

    function varargout = GUI(varargin)
    % GUI MATLAB code for GUI.fig
    %      GUI, by itself, creates a new GUI or raises the existing
    %      singleton*.
    %
    %      H = GUI returns the handle to a new GUI or the handle to
    %      the existing singleton*.
    %
    %      GUI('CALLBACK',hObject,eventData,handles,...) calls the local
    %      function named CALLBACK in GUI.M with the given input arguments.
    %
    %      GUI('Property','Value',...) creates a new GUI or raises the
    %      existing singleton*.  Starting from the left, property value pairs are
    %      applied to the GUI before GUI_OpeningFcn gets called.  An
    %      unrecognized property name or invalid value makes property application
    %      stop.  All inputs are passed to GUI_OpeningFcn via varargin.
    %
    %      *See GUI Options on GUIDE's Tools menu.  Choose "GUI allows only one
    %      instance to run (singleton)".

What i want to do is, i want to connect the GUI to my m script, when user sildes the slider . it should show the change in graph automatically and when he clicks on apply. the value of slider should be taken and should be available in my m file.

Any leads will be helpful.

There seems to be a big gap in what you have shown and what you are trying to do. Your class has one function at the moment that takes a signal, time and frequency cutoff as arguments, your GUI just has a slider and a plot. There are numerous bits that need to go between these two - i.e. where is the signal coming from?

I would always recommend linking a slider up to an edit box on a GUI too if you want to be able to see what its values are.

The callbacks in the created m-file that you showed are where you need to put code to hook this up to your class, but how you do that depends on how you set up the slider, where you get your signal from and the 'time' argument also, etc.

Sorry, i have a test script. where i call this container class.

   filname = load('somefile');
   x  = filname.signal;  % current value
   t = filname.time;
  f = ltiFilter.Container();
  f.addsignal(x,t,30);

this is how x and t comes into the picture
