imread

skimage.data.imread(fname, as_grey=False, plugin=None, flatten=None, **plugin_args) [source]

Load an image from file.

Parameters:

fname : string

Image file name, e.g. test.jpg or URL.

as_grey : bool

If True, convert color images to grey-scale (32-bit floats). Images that are already in grey-scale format are not converted.

plugin : str

Name of plugin to use. By default, the different plugins are tried (starting with the Python Imaging Library) until a suitable candidate is found. If not given and fname is a tiff file, the tifffile plugin will be used.

Returns:

img_array : ndarray

The different colour bands/channels are stored in the third dimension, such that a grey-image is MxN, an RGB-image MxNx3 and an RGBA-image MxNx4.

Other Parameters:

plugin_args : keywords

Passed to the given plugin.
