I was using PIL library to open an image and then convert it into array later on for DL operations. However I found out that image opened was blurry as opposed to the original image. Why is the image coming out the way it is? and what can be done to fix it? If a possible solution is present in OpenCV that'd be welcome as well.



I tried to use OpenCV as well but I was getting an Assertion Error i.e



error: OpenCV(3.4.3) /io/opencv/modules/imgproc/src/resize.cpp:4044: error: (-215:Assertion failed) !ssize.empty() in function 'resize'


Code:



from PIL import Image
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import os
import cv2
import keras
from keras.models import Sequential
from keras.layers import Conv2D,MaxPooling2D,Dense,Flatten,Dropout
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

image=Image.open("../content/cell_images/Parasitized/"+i)
size_image = image.resize((50, 50))
print("image")
plot(image,count)
print("resize image")
plot(size_image,count)


Here is the code for plotting:



def plot(img,count):
w=10
h=10
fig=plt.figure(figsize=(8, 8))
img = np.random.randint(10, size=(h,w))
fig.add_subplot(rows, columns, count)
plt.imshow(img)
plt.show()

Try specifying the resampling filter. Default filter (Nearest Neighbor) is fast but results are not as good.



image=Image.open("../content/cell_images/Parasitized/"+i)
size_image = image.resize((50, 50),PIL.Image.LANCZOS)

    Still, Nearest Neighbor does not wield blurred image. It is actually causes a aliasing-like effect which can be solved by blurring
