keras reshape input image to work with CNN
Question:
There are other post with similar questions but none of the answers are helping me. I´m new to this CNN world.
I followed this tutorial for training a CNN with Keras using theano as BackEnd with the MNIST dataset. Now I want to pass to the CNN my own jpg image but I dont know how to reshape it. Can you help me please? Im super new at this.
So far, I tried this to reshape
image = np.expand_dims(image, axis=0) image = preprocess_input(image)
but get the following error when predicting:
ValueError: Error when checking : expected conv2d_1_input to have shape (None, 1, 28, 28) but got array with shape (1, 3, 28, 28)
As you can see, my CNN uses width = 28, height = 28 and depth =1.
Answers:
Try using Numpy for reshaping. Since, you have been using a 2D-Convolutional model:
image = np.reshape(image, (28, 1, 28, 1))
The error message shows the network expects the image shape is 1*28*28, but your input is in 3*28*28. I guess the image you input is a color image, 3 channels(RGB), while the network expects a gray image, one channel.
When you call opencv to read image, please use code below.
img = cv2.imread(imgfile, cv2.IMREAD_GRAYSCALE)
simply use
”’image = np.reshape(len(image), (28,28, 1))”’
