Hey Ralph
2009/10/9 Ralf Gommers <ralf.gommers@googlemail.com>:
where all PNGs are access only as necessary, and are cached once they've been read from disk. You can also index into or iterate over an ImageCollection (yielding the image arrays). It sounds like a multi-image could be interpreted as an ImageCollection.
That sounds like a good option. Let me know if you want me to test it / work on it / send you some multi-image files.
I'd appreciate it if you could investigate a bit further. The code I was referring to is at
As you can see, it is very simplistic. It also returns a bunch of Image objects, that we don't need. But the basic idea is there: a container over which you can iterate, that loads images on demand and keeps a cache as necessary. I've never played with loading of multi-layer images, so I hope you can get something going.
Sure, I'll give it a go. I cloned your scikits.image repo on github, will add a new branch and push to my cloned repo once it works. That is best way to do it right? Another git question, for scipy I followed this guide: http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/wiki/GitMirror. Now I have it here: http://github.com/rgommers/scipy. Would it not be better to clone another scipy repo already on github, like David's or Pauli's? Or does it not matter? Cheers, Ralf
