python-scipyHow can I use Python and SciPy to read an image file?
Using Python and SciPy to read an image file is relatively straightforward. The following example code reads in an image file and prints out its dimensions:
from scipy import misc
img = misc.imread('image.jpg')
print(img.shape)
Output example
(300, 400, 3)
The code is composed of the following parts:
from scipy import misc
imports the SciPy modulemisc
which contains functions to work with images.img = misc.imread('image.jpg')
reads in the image fileimage.jpg
and stores it as an array in the variableimg
.print(img.shape)
prints out the shape of the arrayimg
, which is the dimensions of the image.
