OpenCV2：imread 和 imwrite

OpenCV2的學習就從imread 和 imwrite函數開始

加載圖檔Loads an image from a file.

C++:  Mat  imread (const string&  filename, int  flags=1  )

Python:   cv2. imread (filename [, flags ] ) → retval

C: IplImage* cvLoadImage(const char* filename, int iscolor=CV_LOAD_IMAGE_COLOR )

C: CvMat* cvLoadImageM(const char* filename, int iscolor=CV_LOAD_IMAGE_COLOR )

Python: cv.LoadImage(filename, iscolor=CV_LOAD_IMAGE_COLOR) → None

Python: cv.LoadImageM(filename, iscolor=CV_LOAD_IMAGE_COLOR) → None

imread 函數第二各參數預設情況下讀取彩色圖檔。

Parameters:

filename – Name of file to be loaded. flags – Flags specifying the color type of a loaded image: CV_LOAD_IMAGE_ANYDEPTH - If set, return 16-bit/32-bit image when the input has the corresponding depth, otherwise convert it to 8-bit. CV_LOAD_IMAGE_COLOR - If set, always convert image to the color one CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE - If set, always convert image to the grayscale one  CV_LOAD_IMAGE_UNCHANGED -1 原始圖像  CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE 0 灰階圖像  CV_LOAD_IMAGE_COLOR 1 彩色  CV_LOAD_IMAGE_ANYDEPTH 2 任何彩度  CV_LOAD_IMAGE_ANYCOLOR 4 任何彩色 >0 Return a 3-channel color image. Note In the current implementation the alpha channel, if any, is stripped from the output image. Use negative value if you need the alpha channel. =0 Return a grayscale image. <0 Return the loaded image as is (with alpha channel).

The function imread loads an image from the specified file and returns it. If the image cannot be read (because of missing file, improper permissions, unsupported or invalid format), the function returns an empty matrix ( Mat::data==NULL ). 讀圖失敗會傳回空，而不是報錯

Currently, the following file formats are supported:

• Windows bitmaps - *.bmp, *.dib (always supported)
• JPEG files - *.jpeg, *.jpg, *.jpe (see the Notes section)
• JPEG 2000 files - *.jp2 (see the Notes section)
• Portable Network Graphics - *.png (see the Notes section)
• Portable image format - *.pbm, *.pgm, *.ppm (always supported)
• Sun rasters - *.sr, *.ras (always supported)
• TIFF files - *.tiff, *.tif (see the Notes section)

Note

• The function determines the type of an image by the content, not by the file extension.
• On Microsoft Windows* OS and MacOSX*, the codecs shipped with an OpenCV image (libjpeg, libpng, libtiff, and libjasper) are used by default. So, OpenCV can always read JPEGs, PNGs, and TIFFs. On MacOSX, there is also an option to use native MacOSX image readers. But beware that currently these native image loaders give images with different pixel values because of the color management embedded into MacOSX.
• On Linux*, BSD flavors and other Unix-like open-source operating systems, OpenCV looks for codecs supplied with an OS image. Install the relevant packages (do not forget the development files, for example, “libjpeg-dev”, in Debian* and Ubuntu*) to get the codec support or turn on the OPENCV_BUILD_3RDPARTY_LIBS flag in CMake.

Note

In the case of color images, the decoded images will have the channels stored in B G R order.

imwrite

Saves an image to a specified file.

C++:  bool  imwrite (const string&  filename, InputArray  img, const vector<int>&  params=vector<int>()  )

Python:   cv2. imwrite (filename, img [, params ] ) → retval

C:  int  cvSaveImage (const char*  filename, const CvArr*  image, const int*  params=0  )

Python:   cv. SaveImage (filename, image ) → None

Parameters:

filename – Name of the file. image – Image to be saved. params – Format-specific save parameters encoded as pairs paramId_1, paramValue_1, paramId_2, paramValue_2, ... . The following parameters are currently supported: For JPEG, it can be a quality ( CV_IMWRITE_JPEG_QUALITY ) from 0 to 100 (the higher is the better). Default value is 95. For PNG, it can be the compression level ( CV_IMWRITE_PNG_COMPRESSION ) from 0 to 9. A higher value means a smaller size and longer compression time. Default value is 3. For PPM, PGM, or PBM, it can be a binary format flag ( CV_IMWRITE_PXM_BINARY ), 0 or 1. Default value is 1.

The function imwrite saves the image to the specified file. The image format is chosen based on the filename extension (see imread() for the list of extensions). Only 8-bit (or 16-bit unsigned (CV_16U) in case of PNG, JPEG 2000, and TIFF) single-channel or 3-channel (with ‘BGR’ channel order) images can be saved using this function. If the format, depth or channel order is different, use Mat::convertTo() , and cvtColor() to convert it before saving. Or, use the universal FileStorage I/O functions to save the image to XML or YAML format.

It is possible to store PNG images with an alpha channel using this function. To do this, create 8-bit (or 16-bit) 4-channel image BGRA, where the alpha channel goes last. Fully transparent pixels should have alpha set to 0, fully opaque pixels should have alpha set to 255/65535. The sample below shows how to create such a BGRA image and store to PNG file. It also demonstrates how to set custom compression parameters

#include <vector>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <opencv2/opencv.hpp>

using namespace cv;
using namespace std;

void createAlphaMat(Mat &mat)
{
    CV_Assert(mat.channels() == 4);
    for (int i = 0; i < mat.rows; ++i) {
        for (int j = 0; j < mat.cols; ++j) {
            Vec4b& bgra = mat.at<Vec4b>(i, j);
            bgra[0] = UCHAR_MAX; // Blue
            bgra[1] = saturate_cast<uchar>((float (mat.cols - j)) / ((float)mat.cols) * UCHAR_MAX); // Green
            bgra[2] = saturate_cast<uchar>((float (mat.rows - i)) / ((float)mat.rows) * UCHAR_MAX); // Red
            bgra[3] = saturate_cast<uchar>(0.5 * (bgra[1] + bgra[2])); // Alpha
        }
    }
}

int main(int argv, char **argc)
{
    // Create mat with alpha channel
    Mat mat(480, 640, CV_8UC4);
    createAlphaMat(mat);

    vector<int> compression_params;
    compression_params.push_back(CV_IMWRITE_PNG_COMPRESSION);
    compression_params.push_back(9);

    try {
        imwrite("alpha.png", mat, compression_params);
    }
    catch (runtime_error& ex) {
        fprintf(stderr, "Exception converting image to PNG format: %s\n", ex.what());
        return 1;
    }

    fprintf(stdout, "Saved PNG file with alpha data.\n");
    return 0;
}
