Image-Splitter-and-Combiner

This repository contains two Python scripts for splitting an image into a grid of patches and then reassembling those patches back into the original image. The scripts are designed to work with images of any size and split them into patches of specified dimensions.

Scripts

  • Image_Splitter_by_pixel.py: Splits a given image into smaller patches based on specified dimensions (width and height in pixels). The patches are saved with filenames indicating their position in the original image (e.g., 1_1.png for the first row and first column), and then zipped into a single file.

  • Image_Combiner.py: Takes a directory of image patches named according to their position in the original image and reassembles them into a single image file.

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Pillow library

Before running the scripts, make sure you have Python 3 installed on your system and install the Pillow library using pip:

pip install Pillow

Usage

Splitting an Image

To split an image, run Image_Splitter_by_pixel.py with the following arguments:

  1. Path to the input image.
  2. Desired patch width in pixels.
  3. Desired patch height in pixels.
  4. Output directory to save the patches.

Example:

python Image_Splitter_by_pixel.py "/path/to/image.jpg" 512 512 "/path/to/output/directory"

This will split image.jpg into 512x512 patches and save them in the specified output directory, followed by zipping these patches into a single file.

Example output:

Patches saved and zipped at: /path/to/output/directory/patches.zip

Combining Image Patches

To reassemble an image from patches, run Image_Combiner.py with the following arguments:

  1. Path to the directory containing the image patches.
  2. Path to save the reassembled image.

Example:

python3 Image_Combiner.py /path/to/patches /path/to/output/image.jpg

This will reassemble the patches located in /path/to/patches into a single image and save it to /path/to/output/image.jpg.

Example output:

Image reassembled and saved to: /path/to/output/image.jpg

Downsample, split an image into grids, and combine grid images into a single image

Downsampling an Image

The 'downsample_image.py' script resizes an image to specified dimensions. This is particularly useful for preparing images for processes that require specific input dimensions.

  • Command
python downsample_image.py "/path/to/original/image.png" "/path/to/output/downsampled_image.png" target_width target_height
  • Example Usage
python downsample_image.py "/home/zdeng/aeroplan/training_dataset/texture.png" "/home/zdeng/aeroplan/training_dataset/texture_ds.png" 2500 2500

Splitting an Image into a Grid

The 'Image_Splitter_by_grid.py' script divides a downsized image into a grid of smaller images. This is useful for analyzing or processing parts of an image individually.

  • Command
python Image_Splitter_by_grid.py "/path/to/downsampled/image.png" grid_x grid_y "/path/to/output/directory"
  • Example Usage
python Image_Splitter_by_grid.py "/home/zdeng/aeroplan/training_dataset/texture_ds.png" 500 500 "/home/zdeng/aeroplan/training_dataset/texture_ds_500_500"

Combining Grid Images into a Single Image

The 'Image_Combiner_by_grid.py' script reassembles a set of grid images back into the original format. This is used after processing individual grid images to reconstruct the full image.

  • Command
python3 Image_Combiner_by_grid.py /path/to/patches /path/to/output/image.jpg
  • Example Usage
python3 Image_Combiner_by_grid.py /home/zdeng/aeroplan/training_dataset/texture_ds_500_500 /home/zdeng/aeroplan/training_dataset/texture_ds_combined.png
