tf.keras.preprocessing.image.load_img

tf.keras.utils.load_img(
    path,
    grayscale=False,
    color_mode='rgb',
    target_size=None,
    interpolation='nearest',
    keep_aspect_ratio=False
)

Usage:

image = tf.keras.utils.load_img(image_path)
input_arr = tf.keras.utils.img_to_array(image)
input_arr = np.array([input_arr])  # Convert single image to a batch.
predictions = model.predict(input_arr)

Args
path	Path to image file.
grayscale	DEPRECATED use color_mode="grayscale".
color_mode	One of "grayscale", "rgb", "rgba". Default: "rgb". The desired image format.
target_size	Either None (default to original size) or tuple of ints (img_height, img_width).
interpolation	Interpolation method used to resample the image if the target size is different from that of the loaded image. Supported methods are "nearest", "bilinear", and "bicubic". If PIL version 1.1.3 or newer is installed, "lanczos" is also supported. If PIL version 3.4.0 or newer is installed, "box" and "hamming" are also supported. By default, "nearest" is used.
keep_aspect_ratio	Boolean, whether to resize images to a target size without aspect ratio distortion. The image is cropped in the center with target aspect ratio before resizing.

Returns
A PIL Image instance.

Raises
ImportError	if PIL is not available.
ValueError	if interpolation method is not supported.
