Live.log_image()

Saves the given image val to the output file name.

def log_image(name: str, val):

Usage

from dvclive import Live

live = Live()

import numpy as np
img_numpy = np.ones((500, 500), np.uint8) * 255
live.log_image("numpy.png", img_numpy)

from PIL import Image
img_pil = Image.new("RGB", (500, 500), (250, 250, 250))
live.log_image("pil.png", img_pil)

Description

Supported values for val are:

• A valid numpy array (convertible to image via PIL.Image.fromarray)
• A PIL.Image instance.

The images will be saved in {Live.dir}/images/{name}:

└── dvclive
    └── images
        ├── numpy.png
        └── pil.png

Step updates

The first step update (with Live.next_step() or Live.set_step()) will move the saved file from {Live.dir}/images/{name} to {Live.dir}/images/{step}/{name}.

Each subsequent call to live.log_image(name, val) will save the image under the folder {Live.dir}/images/{step}/{name} corresponding to the current step.

Parameters

• val - image to be saved
