sklearn.feature_extraction.image.PatchExtractor

class sklearn.feature_extraction.image.PatchExtractor(patch_size=None, max_patches=None, random_state=None)[source]

Extracts patches from a collection of images

Read more in the User Guide.

Parameters
patch_sizetuple of ints (patch_height, patch_width)

the dimensions of one patch

max_patchesinteger or float, optional default is None

The maximum number of patches per image to extract. If max_patches is a float in (0, 1), it is taken to mean a proportion of the total number of patches.

random_stateint, RandomState instance or None, optional (default=None)

Determines the random number generator used for random sampling when max_patches is not None. Use an int to make the randomness deterministic. See Glossary.

Examples

>>> from sklearn.datasets import load_sample_images
>>> from sklearn.feature_extraction import image
>>> # Use the array data from the second image in this dataset:
>>> X = load_sample_images().images[1]
>>> print('Image shape: {}'.format(X.shape))
Image shape: (427, 640, 3)
>>> pe = image.PatchExtractor(patch_size=(2, 2))
>>> pe_fit = pe.fit(X)
>>> pe_trans = pe.transform(X)
>>> print('Patches shape: {}'.format(pe_trans.shape))
Patches shape: (545706, 2, 2)

Methods

fit(self, X[, y])

Do nothing and return the estimator unchanged

get_params(self[, deep])

Get parameters for this estimator.

set_params(self, \*\*params)

Set the parameters of this estimator.

transform(self, X)

Transforms the image samples in X into a matrix of patch data.

__init__(self, patch_size=None, max_patches=None, random_state=None)[source]

Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

fit(self, X, y=None)[source]

Do nothing and return the estimator unchanged

This method is just there to implement the usual API and hence work in pipelines.

Parameters
Xarray-like, shape [n_samples, n_features]

Training data.

get_params(self, deep=True)[source]

Get parameters for this estimator.

Parameters
deepboolean, optional

If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.

Returns
paramsmapping of string to any

Parameter names mapped to their values.

set_params(self, **params)[source]

Set the parameters of this estimator.

The method works on simple estimators as well as on nested objects (such as pipelines). The latter have parameters of the form <component>__<parameter> so that it’s possible to update each component of a nested object.

Returns
self
transform(self, X)[source]

Transforms the image samples in X into a matrix of patch data.

Parameters
Xarray, shape = (n_samples, image_height, image_width) or

(n_samples, image_height, image_width, n_channels) Array of images from which to extract patches. For color images, the last dimension specifies the channel: a RGB image would have n_channels=3.

Returns
patchesarray, shape = (n_patches, patch_height, patch_width) or

(n_patches, patch_height, patch_width, n_channels) The collection of patches extracted from the images, where n_patches is either n_samples * max_patches or the total number of patches that can be extracted.
