Can't make image_url work in Bokeh (Python) - image

I tried to reproduce the solution from: How do I work with images in Bokeh (Python) , but it doesn't work. For that, I find an image on the net and put it in place of the 'url' field but the plot is just blank! From the original solution bokeh ask me to add up w and h params which I suppose are the width and height of the pic. Also I dropped x_range and y_range within figure() to wipe out the horizontal and vertical lines of the plot.
from bokeh.plotting import figure, show, output_notebook
output_notebook()
p = figure()
p.image_url( url=[ "http://pngimg.com/uploads/palm_tree/palm_tree_PNG2504.png"],
x=1, y=1, w=253, h=409)
show( p)
Anyone could tell me what's going on ?

Bokeh can't auto-range ImageURL it seems. So if there are no other glyphs, you need to provide explicit ranges. Additionlly, the default anchor is upper_left IIRC so it may be that our image is rendering off-canvas and you don't realize it. The code below works with Bokeh 0.12.5:
from bokeh.plotting import figure, show, output_file
output_file("foo.html")
p = figure(x_range=(0,500), y_range=(0,500))
p.image_url( url=[ "http://pngimg.com/uploads/palm_tree/palm_tree_PNG2504.png"],
x=1, y=1, w=253, h=409, anchor="bottom_left")
show(p)
Without the anchor set, the image plots blow the plot region (have to pan to see it)

Animated scatter plot with plotly makes an undesired crossing of bubbles

I've done this scatter with plotly express and added an animation. Also, I adjusted the scatter to make it appears as such as a bubble chart. All works great, except for one issue. When I press the button to start the graph animation and one bubble is 'reached' and 'overtaken' by another bubble, they cross each other. By itself, it doesn't create a wrong result, but it's an undesired effect. I've showed the situation in the gif reachable with this link:
https://github.com/TheHextech/start2impact/blob/master/Data_Science/Food_Project_DataVisualization_DataManipulation/normal_animation.gif
However, if I manually drag the spinbox of the animation this effect doesn't show up (check this other link to see the gif https://github.com/TheHextech/start2impact/blob/master/Data_Science/Food_Project_DataVisualization_DataManipulation/dragged_spinbox.gif).
Why does this happen? And how can I fix this problem avoiding the 'overtake' during the normal animation? I share here the entire code of the graph:
fig = px.scatter(
data_frame=chn_food_feed,
x='production',
y='item',
size='production',
size_max=80,
animation_frame='years',
color='element',
color_discrete_map={
'Feed':'brown',
'Food':'orange'},
hover_name='item',
hover_data=dict(
item = False,
element = False),
range_x=[chn_food_feed.production.min()-5000, chn_food_feed.production.max()+50000],
range_y=[-1, 5.5])
fig.update_layout(
title="Storyline of China's top 3 Food and Feed items produced in 2013",
title_x = 0.5,
title_y = 0.95,
title_xanchor='center',
title_yanchor='top',
legend_title_text='Elements',
xaxis = dict(title='Production (1000 tons)'),
yaxis = dict(title=None))
# Speed up the animation
fig.layout.updatemenus[0].buttons[0].args[1]['frame']['duration'] = 250
fig.layout.updatemenus[0].buttons[0].args[1]['transition']['duration'] = 250
fig.show(renderer='notebook_connected') # For VS Code visulization of animation

How to matched object from main image with the template sub-Image using normxcorr2

I try to determine the coordinates of a puzzle piece on the original image using the normxcorr2 function. Then I draw a rectangle on the correspondence of the two elements. Unfortunately, I notice that the coordinates that this match has given me are not good. Could someone have an idea how to improve the use of this feature and get some better results.
The puzzle piece has the name "cpiece" and the original picture has the name "bild"
clear all;
close all;
clc
cpiece = im2gray(imread('cpiece1.jpg'));
bild = im2gray(imread('original.jpg'));
figure(1)
montage({bild,cpiece})
c = normxcorr2(cpiece,bild);
figure(2)
surf(c)
shading flat
[ypeak,xpeak] = find(c==max(c(:)));
yoffSet = ypeak-size(cpiece,1);
xoffSet = xpeak-size(cpiece,2);
figure(3)
imshow(bild)
drawrectangle(gca,'Position',[xoffSet,yoffSet,size(cpiece,2),size(cpiece,1)],'FaceAlpha',0);
It seems, the problem returns back to the quality of your template image, And Check if the scales between original image and the template are exactly the same

Print image to pdf without margin using Matlab

I'm trying to use the answers I found in these questions:
How to save a plot into a PDF file without a large margin around
Get rid of the white space around matlab figure's pdf output
External source
to print a matlab plot to pdf without having the white margins included.
However using this code:
function saveTightFigure( h, outfilename, orientation )
% SAVETIGHTFIGURE(H,OUTFILENAME) Saves figure H in file OUTFILENAME without
% the white space around it.
%
% by ``a grad student"
% http://tipstrickshowtos.blogspot.com/2010/08/how-to-get-rid-of-white-margin-in.html
% get the current axes
ax = get(h, 'CurrentAxes');
% make it tight
ti = get(ax,'TightInset');
set(ax,'Position',[ti(1) ti(2) 1-ti(3)-ti(1) 1-ti(4)-ti(2)]);
% adjust the papersize
set(ax,'units','centimeters');
pos = get(ax,'Position');
ti = get(ax,'TightInset');
set(h, 'PaperUnits','centimeters');
set(h, 'PaperSize', [pos(3)+ti(1)+ti(3) pos(4)+ti(2)+ti(4)]);
set(h, 'PaperPositionMode', 'manual');
set(h, 'PaperPosition',[0 0 pos(3)+ti(1)+ti(3) pos(4)+ti(2)+ti(4)]);
% save it
%saveas(h,outfilename);
if( orientation == 1)
orient portrait
else
orient landscape
end
print( '-dpdf', outfilename );
end
Results in this output:
As you can see the 'PaperSize' seems to be set not properly. Any idea of possible fixes?
NOTE
If I change the orientation between landscape and portrait the result is the same, simply the image is chopped in a different way.
However if I save the image with the saveas(h,outfilename); instruction the correct output is produced.
Why is this? And what is the difference between the two saving instructions?
Alltogether the answers you mentioned offer a lot of approaches, but most of them didn't worked for me neither. Most of them screw up your papersize when you want to get the tight inset, the only which worked for me was:
set(axes_handle,'LooseInset',get(axes_handle,'TightInset'));
I finally wrote a function, where I specify the exact height and width of the output figure on paper, and the margin I want (or just set it to zero). Be aware that you also need to pass the axis handle. Maybe this functions works for you also.
function saveFigure( fig_handle, axes_handle, name , height , width , margin)
set(axes_handle,'LooseInset',get(axes_handle,'TightInset'));
set(fig_handle, 'Units','centimeters','PaperUnits','centimeters')
% the last two parameters of 'Position' define the figure size
set(fig_handle,'Position',[-margin -margin width height],...
'PaperPosition',[0 0 width+margin height+margin],...
'PaperSize',[width+margin height+margin],...
'PaperPositionMode','auto',...
'InvertHardcopy', 'on',...
'Renderer','painters'... %recommended if there are no alphamaps
);
saveas(fig_handle,name,'pdf')
end
Edit: if you use painters as renderer saveas and print should produce similar results. For jpegs print is preferable as you can specify the resolution.

Setting correct limits with imshow if image data shape changes

I have a 3D array, of which the first two dimensions are spatial, so say (x,y). The third dimension contains point-specific information.
print H.shape # --> (200, 480, 640) spatial extents (200,480)
Now, by selecting a certain plane in the third dimension, I can display an image with
imdat = H[:,:,100] # shape (200, 480)
img = ax.imshow(imdat, cmap='jet',vmin=imdat.min(),vmax=imdat.max(), animated=True, aspect='equal')
I want to now rotate the cube, so that I switch from (x,y) to (y,x).
H = np.rot90(H) # could also use H.swapaxes(0,1) or H.transpose((1,0,2))
print H.shape # --> (480, 200, 640)
Now, when I call:
imdat = H[:,:,100] # shape (480,200)
img.set_data(imdat)
ax.relim()
ax.autoscale_view(tight=True)
I get weird behavior. The image along the rows displays the data till 200th row, and then it is black until the end of the y-axis (480). The x-axis extends from 0 to 200 and shows the rotated data. Now on, another rotation by 90-degrees, the image displays correctly (just rotated 180 degrees of course)
It seems to me like after rotating the data, the axis limits, (or image extents?) or something is not refreshing correctly. Can somebody help?
PS: to indulge in bad hacking, I also tried to regenerate a new image (by calling ax.imshow) after each rotation, but I still get the same behavior.
Below I include a solution to your problem. The method resetExtent uses the data and the image to explicitly set the extent to the desired values. Hopefully I correctly emulated the intended outcome.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
def resetExtent(data,im):
"""
Using the data and axes from an AxesImage, im, force the extent and
axis values to match shape of data.
"""
ax = im.get_axes()
dataShape = data.shape
if im.origin == 'upper':
im.set_extent((-0.5,dataShape[0]-.5,dataShape[1]-.5,-.5))
ax.set_xlim((-0.5,dataShape[0]-.5))
ax.set_ylim((dataShape[1]-.5,-.5))
else:
im.set_extent((-0.5,dataShape[0]-.5,-.5,dataShape[1]-.5))
ax.set_xlim((-0.5,dataShape[0]-.5))
ax.set_ylim((-.5,dataShape[1]-.5))
def main():
fig = plt.gcf()
ax = fig.gca()
H = np.zeros((200,480,10))
# make distinguishing corner of data
H[100:,...] = 1
H[100:,240:,:] = 2
imdat = H[:,:,5]
datShape = imdat.shape
im = ax.imshow(imdat,cmap='jet',vmin=imdat.min(),
vmax=imdat.max(),animated=True,
aspect='equal',
# origin='lower'
)
resetExtent(imdat,im)
fig.savefig("img1.png")
H = np.rot90(H)
imdat = H[:,:,0]
im.set_data(imdat)
resetExtent(imdat,im)
fig.savefig("img2.png")
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
This script produces two images:
First un-rotated:
Then rotated:
I thought just explicitly calling set_extent would do everything resetExtent does, because it should adjust the axes limits if 'autoscle' is True. But for some unknown reason, calling set_extent alone does not do the job.

Display image using GUI MATLAB in a specific region

I'm looking for how can I display an image in my GUI in a specific region of my interface.
In GUIDE, you can draw axes into the GUI. Then, in a callback function, you can plot an image into the axes.
Personally, I would rather not have the image inside the GUI, because it makes it harder to resize everything properly, and if you want to have a closer look at the image, or capture it to paste into another application, having the figure as part of the GUI can be inconvenient. Thus, I prefer to have the image open in a separate figure window.
Try the following code:
function movingimage
%# Plotting a figure
fig1=figure('Name','Plotting an image',...
'Unit','normalized', 'Position',[.1 .1 .8 .8]);
uicontrol(fig1,'Style','text','Unit','Normalized',...
'Position',[.9 .85 .1 .07],'String','Press the button below to move the image location.');
uicontrol(fig1,'Style','pushbutton','Unit','Normalized',...
'Position',[.9 .8 .05 .05],'String','Move','Callback',{#action_Callback});
%# Say, you wish to plot an image of relative dimension (.3 x .3) to the figure.
xdim=.3; ydim=.3;
%# Image's movable range in x is (1 - xdim)
dx=1-xdim;
%# Image's Movable range in y is (1 - ydim)
dy=1-ydim;
%# considering the size of the image...
pos = [.5*dx .5*dy xdim ydim]; %# Initial location of the image is at the center of the figure.
ax1 = axes('position',pos);
img = load('mandrill');
image(img.X)
colormap(img.map);axis off;axis equal;
function action_Callback(hObj,eventdata)
pos=[rand(1)*dx rand(1)*dy xdim ydim];
set(ax1,'position',pos);
end
end
The most direct and easy way I find to do this is to use the Axis component as shown in this tutorial:
