OpenCV reads an image as a 3-channel image while P

问题:

I'm trying to figure out the NYU-v2 for semantic segmentation dataset in this Repository. I'm having a hard time trying to understand how the image labels have been stored.

For example, given the following image :

The corresponding label image is:

Now if I open the label image in OpenCV it reads this image as an RGB image:(wrongly, though. Even tried -1 as the second argument in imread)

import cv2
import numpy as np

img = img = cv2.imread(labelImage)

img.shape
 >>> (468, 625, 3)

np.unque(img)
 >>> array([  0,  64, 128, 192, 224], dtype=uint8)

Whereas, if I open this same file in PIL:

from PIL import Image
import numpy as np


img = np.array(Image.open(labelImage))

img.shape
 >>> (468, 625)

np.unique(i)
 >>> array([  0,   2,   4,  13,  25,  39, 255], dtype=uint8)

Now the result that PIL shows is correct, and np.unique confirms this as each image in the NYU dataset has labels ranging from 0-39(255 is ignored), where each object is given a label in the 2-d space.

Now the real question. How is the author storing the images such that they show up as color images in my OS's image viewer and OpenCV, but show up as single-channel images in PIL?

回答1:

It is stored as a palette (indexed) image. See here. OpenCV doesn't really like palette images and just converts to RGB.

If I dump it with ImageMagick in Terminal, you can see the palette (under Colormap) and the 7 colours under Histogram:

I see you want to write your results out with the same palette as you started with. I don't believe OpenCV can do that, but you could write your results as a normal, unpalettised PNG with OpenCV and then remap that to your original palette with ImageMagick in Terminal.

So, we can make a 7x1 pixel image of the colours in your palette like this:

magick -size 1x1 xc:black xc:navy xc:green xc:'#8080C0' xc:'#C00080' xc:'#C04000' xc:'#E0E0C0' +append palette.png

That looks like this when enlarged:

You can now make any results images you like with OpenCV, but convert (i.e. "remap") them to that original palette like this:

magick OpenCVresult.png +dither -remap palette.png result.png

If your ImageMagick is v6, use convert in place of magick.
