Keras Image Preprocessing

问题:

My training images are downscaled versions of their associated HR image. Thus, the input and the output images aren't the same dimension. For now, I'm using a hand-crafted sample of 13 images, but eventually I would like to be able to use my 500-ish HR (high-resolution) images dataset. This dataset, however, does not have images of the same dimension, so I'm guessing I'll have to crop them in order to obtain a uniform dimension.

I currently have this code set up: it takes a bunch of 512x512x3 images and applies a few transformations to augment the data (flips). I thus obtain a basic set of 39 images in their HR form, and then I downscale them by a factor of 4, thus obtaining my trainset which consits of 39 images of dimension 128x128x3.

My question is: in my case, can I use the Preprocessing tool that Keras offers? I would ideally like to be able to input my varying sized images of high quality, crop them (not downsize them) to 512x512x3, and data augment them through flips and whatnot. Substracting the mean would also be part of what I'd like to achieve. That set would represent my validation set.

Reusing the validation set, I want to downscale by a factor of 4 all the images, and that would generate my training set.

Those two sets could then be split appropriately to obtain, ultimately, the famous X_train Y_train X_test Y_test.

I'm just hesitant about throwing out all the work I've done so far to preprocess my mini sample, but I'm thinking if it can all be done with a single built-in function, maybe I should give that a go.

This is my first ML project, hence me not understanding very well Keras, and the documentation isn't always the clearest. I'm thinking that the fact that I'm working with a X and Y that are different in size, maybe this function doesn't apply to my project.

Thank you! :)

Christof Henkel's suggestion is very clean and nice. I would just like to offer another way to do it using imgaug, a convenient way to augment images in lots of different ways. It's usefull if you want more implemented augmentations or if you ever need to use some ML library other than Keras.

It unfortunatly doesn't have a way to make crops that way but it allows implementing custom functions. Here is an example function for generating random crops of a set size from an image that's at least as big as the chosen crop size:

from imgaug import augmenters as iaa

def random_crop(images, random_state, parents, hooks):
    crop_h, crop_w = 128, 128
    new_images = []
    for img in images:
        if (img.shape[0] >= crop_h) and (img.shape[1] >= crop_w):
            rand_h = np.random.randint(0, img.shape[0]-crop_h)
            rand_w = np.random.randint(0, img.shape[1]-crop_w)
            new_images.append(img[rand_h:rand_h+crop_h, rand_w:rand_w+crop_w])
        else:
             new_images.append(np.zeros((crop_h, crop_w, 3)))
    return np.array(new_images)

def keypoints_dummy(keypoints_on_images, random_state, parents, hooks):
    return keypoints_on_images

cropper = iaa.Lambda(func_images=random_crop, func_keypoints=keypoints_dummy)

You can then combine this function with any other builtin imgaug function, for example the flip functions that you're already using like this:

seq = iaa.Sequential([cropper, iaa.Fliplr(0.5), iaa.Flipud(0.5)])

This function could then generate lots of different crops from each image. An example image with some possible results (note that it would result in actual (128, 128, 3) images, they are just merged into one image here for visualization):

Your image set could then be generated by:

crops_per_image = 10
images = [skimage.io.imread(path) for path in glob.glob('train_data/*.jpg')]
augs = np.array([seq.augment_image(img)/255 for img in images for _ in range(crops_per_image)])

It would also be simple to add new functions to be applied to the images, for example the remove mean functions you mentioned.

Yes you can use keras preprocessing function. Below some snippets to help you...

def cropping_function(x):
    ...
    return cropped_image

X_image_gen = ImageDataGenerator(preprocessing_function = cropping_function,
                               horizontal_flip = True, 
                               vertical_flip=True)
X_train_flow = X_image_gen.flow(X_train, batch_size = 16, seed = 1)
Y_image_gen = ImageDataGenerator(horizontal_flip = True, 
                                 vertical_flip=True)
Y_train_flow = Y_image_gen.flow(y_train, batch_size = 16, seed = 1)
train_flow = zip(X_train_flow,Y_train_flow)
model.fit_generator(train_flow)

Here's another way performing random and center crop before resizing using native ImageDataGenerator and flow_from_directory. You can add it as preprocess_crop.py module into your project.

It first resizes image preserving aspect ratio and then performs crop. Resized image size is based on crop_fraction which is hardcoded but can be changed. See crop_fraction = 0.875 line where 0.875 appears to be the most common, e.g. 224px crop from 256px image.

Note that the implementation has been done by monkey patching keras_preprocessing.image.utils.loag_img function as I couldn't find any other way to perform crop before resizing without rewriting many other classes above.

Due to these limitations, the cropping method is enumerated into the interpolation field. Methods are delimited by : where the first part is interpolation and second is crop e.g. lanczos:random. Supported crop methods are none, center, random. When no crop method is specified, none is assumed.

How to use it

Just drop the preprocess_crop.py into your project to enable cropping. The example below shows how you can use random cropping for the training and center cropping for validation:

import preprocess_crop
from keras.preprocessing.image import ImageDataGenerator
from keras.applications.inception_v3 import preprocess_input

#...

# Training with random crop

train_datagen = ImageDataGenerator(
    rotation_range=20,
    channel_shift_range=20,
    horizontal_flip=True,
    preprocessing_function=preprocess_input
)

train_img_generator = train_datagen.flow_from_directory(
    train_dir,
    target_size = (IMG_SIZE, IMG_SIZE),
    batch_size  = BATCH_SIZE,
    class_mode  = 'categorical',
    interpolation = 'lanczos:random', # <--------- random crop
    shuffle = True
)

# Validation with center crop

validate_datagen = ImageDataGenerator(
    preprocessing_function=preprocess_input
)

validate_img_generator = validate_datagen.flow_from_directory(
    validate_dir,
    target_size = (IMG_SIZE, IMG_SIZE),
    batch_size  = BATCH_SIZE,
    class_mode  = 'categorical',
    interpolation = 'lanczos:center', # <--------- center crop
    shuffle = False
)

Here's preprocess_crop.py file to include with your project:

import random
import keras_preprocessing.image

def load_and_crop_img(path, grayscale=False, color_mode='rgb', target_size=None,
             interpolation='nearest'):
