tf.image.central_crop()

tf.image.central_crop(image, central_fraction)

Crop the central region of the image.

Remove the outer parts of an image but retain the central region of the image along each dimension. If we specify central_fraction = 0.5, this function returns the region marked with "X" in the below diagram.

|  XXXX  |
|  XXXX  |
|        |   where "X" is the central 50% of the image.

Args:

• image: 3-D float Tensor of shape [height, width, depth]
• central_fraction: float (0, 1], fraction of size to crop

Raises:

• ValueError: if central_crop_fraction is not within (0, 1].

Returns:

3-D float Tensor
