kornia.enhance

The functions in this section perform normalisations and intensity transformations.

Adjustment

kornia.enhance.add_weighted(src1, alpha, src2, beta, gamma)

Calculate the weighted sum of two Tensors.

The function calculates the weighted sum of two Tensors as follows:

\[out = src1 * alpha + src2 * beta + gamma\]

Parameters

• src1 (Tensor) – Tensor of shape \((*, H, W)\).

• alpha (float) – weight of the src1 elements.

• src2 (Tensor) – Tensor of same size and channel number as src1 \((*, H, W)\).

• beta (float) – weight of the src2 elements.

• gamma (float) – scalar added to each sum.

Return type

Tensor

Returns

Weighted Tensor of shape \((B, C, H, W)\).

Example

>>> input1 = torch.rand(1, 1, 5, 5)
>>> input2 = torch.rand(1, 1, 5, 5)
>>> output = add_weighted(input1, 0.5, input2, 0.5, 1.0)
>>> output.shape
torch.Size([1, 1, 5, 5])

kornia.enhance.adjust_brightness(image, factor, clip_output=True)

Adjust the brightness of an image tensor.

This implementation follows Szeliski’s book convention, where brightness is defined as an additive operation directly to raw pixel and shift its values according the applied factor and range of the image values. Beware that other framework might use different conventions which can be difficult to reproduce exact results.

The input image and factor is expected to be in the range of [0, 1].

Tip

By applying a large factor might prouce clipping or loss of image detail. We recommenda to apply small factors to avoid the mentioned issues. Ideally one must implement the adjustment of image intensity with other techniques suchs as kornia.enhance.adjust_gamma(). More details in the following link: https://scikit-image.org/docs/dev/auto_examples/color_exposure/plot_log_gamma.html#sphx-glr-auto-examples-color-exposure-plot-log-gamma-py

Parameters

• image (Tensor) – Image to be adjusted in the shape of \((*, H, W)\).

• factor (Union[float, Tensor]) – Brightness adjust factor per element in the batch. It’s recommended to bound the factor by [0, 1]. 0 does not modify the input image while any other number modify the brightness.

Return type

Tensor

Returns

Adjusted tensor in the shape of \((*, H, W)\).

Note

See a working example here.

Example

>>> x = torch.ones(1, 1, 2, 2)
>>> adjust_brightness(x, 1.)
tensor([[[[1., 1.],
          [1., 1.]]]])

>>> x = torch.ones(2, 5, 3, 3)

torch.Size([2, 5, 3, 3])

kornia.enhance.adjust_contrast(image, factor, clip_output=True)

Adjust the contrast of an image tensor.

This implementation follows Szeliski’s book convention, where contrast is defined as a multiplicative operation directly to raw pixel values. Beware that other frameworks might use different conventions which can be difficult to reproduce exact results.

The input image and factor is expected to be in the range of [0, 1].

Tip

This is not the preferred way to adjust the contrast of an image. Ideally one must implement kornia.enhance.adjust_gamma(). More details in the following link: https://scikit-image.org/docs/dev/auto_examples/color_exposure/plot_log_gamma.html#sphx-glr-auto-examples-color-exposure-plot-log-gamma-py

Parameters

• image (Tensor) – Image to be adjusted in the shape of \((*, H, W)\).

Returns

Adjusted image in the shape of \((*, H, W)\).

Note

See a working example here.

class kornia.enhance.ZCAWhitening(dim=0, eps=1e-06, unbiased=True, detach_transforms=True, compute_inv=False)

Compute the ZCA whitening matrix transform and the mean vector and applies the transform to the data.

The data tensor is flattened, and the mean \(\mathbf{\mu}\) and covariance matrix \(\mathbf{\Sigma}\) are computed from the flattened data \(\mathbf{X} \in \mathbb{R}^{N \times D}\), where \(N\) is the sample size and \(D\) is flattened dimensionality (e.g. for a tensor with size 5x3x2x2 \(N = 5\) and \(D = 12\)). The ZCA whitening transform is given by:

\[\mathbf{X}_{\text{zca}} = (\mathbf{X - \mu})(US^{-\frac{1}{2}}U^T)^T\]

where \(U\) are the eigenvectors of \(\Sigma\) and \(S\) contain the corresponding eigenvalues of \(\Sigma\). After the transform is applied, the output is reshaped to same shape.

Parameters

• dim (int, optional) – Determines the dimension that represents the samples axis. Default: 0

• eps (float, optional) – a small number used for numerical stability. Default: 1e-06

• unbiased (bool, optional) – Whether to use the biased estimate of the covariance matrix. Default: True

• compute_inv (bool, optional) – Compute the inverse transform matrix. Default: False

• detach_transforms (bool, optional) – Detaches gradient from the ZCA fitting. Default: True

shape:

• x: \((D_0,...,D_{\text{dim}},...,D_N)\) is a batch of N-D tensors.

• x_whiten: \((D_0,...,D_{\text{dim}},...,D_N)\) same shape as input.

Note

See a working example here.

Examples

>>> x = torch.tensor([[0,1],[1,0],[-1,0],[0,-1]], dtype = torch.float32)
>>> zca = ZCAWhitening().fit(x)
>>> x_whiten = zca(x)
>>> zca = ZCAWhitening()
>>> x_whiten = zca(x, include_fit = True) # Includes the fitting step
>>> x_whiten = zca(x) # Can run now without the fitting set
>>> # Enable backprop through ZCA fitting process
>>> zca = ZCAWhitening(detach_transforms = False)
>>> x_whiten = zca(x, include_fit = True) # Includes the fitting step

Note

This implementation uses svd() which yields NaNs in the backwards step if the singular values are not unique. See here for more information.
