jpeg image being read differently skimage.io.imread

[Vimal Thilak]

Hi,

I have two servers on which I have installed skimage. When I do an skimage.io.imread on these two machines with the same image file, I noticed a difference in the shape of the returned image array:

Machine 1:

image_name = /path/to/JPEG

img = skimage.io.imread(image_name)

>>> img.shape

(3000, 4000, 3)

Machine 2:

img = skimage.io.imread(image_name)

>>> img.shape

(2, )

Both machines have skimage version '0.11.3'. I believe that both systems have Pillow installed. I do not know the version of Pillow. I did change the plug-in to matplotlib on Machine 2 and saw that the image was being read correctly. However, I'm curious to know the reason for this difference and what I can do to fix my machine #2

Furthermore, how do I find the version of Pillow installed on my system? A google search didn't come up with anything that was helpful (i.e, copy-pastable solution) :)

Thanks,

-Vimal

Hi Vimal

Can you please try

skimage.io.imread(image_name, plugin='matplotlib') ?

Thanks!
Stéfan

I think Vimal said that it works with matplotlib, or misunderstood.

To get PIL's version, you can try

python -c 'import PIL; print(PIL.VERSION)'
