how to superimpose heatmap on a base image?

问题

Please look at this github page. I want to generate heat maps in this way using Python PIL,open cv or matplotlib library. Can somebody help me figure it out?

I could create a heat map for my network at the same size as the input, but I am not able superimpose them. The heatmap shape is (800,800) and the base image shape is (800,800,3)

回答1:

You can superimpose your heatmap on the image using the function cv2.addweighted() available in OpenCV.

Here is an example

Sample image:

img = cv2.imread('Sample.jpg', 1)
gray_img = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)

Heatmap:

heatmap_img = cv2.applyColorMap(gray_img, cv2.COLORMAP_JET)

Superimposed:

Now if you want to superimpose this on top of the original image, you can use cv2.addweighted() function

fin = cv2.addWeighted(heatmap_img, 0.7, img, 0.3, 0)

You can vary the weight parameters in the function for both the images.

My code starts from a heatmap matrix (224,224) called cam, which is applied to the original image called frame, via opencv;

and it seems to work pretty well:

import numpy as np
from cv2 import cv2
from skimage import exposure 
...

capture = cv2.VideoCapture(...)
while True:
    ret, frame = capture.read()

    if ret:
        #resize original frame
        frame = cv2.resize(frame, (224, 224)) 

        #get color map
        cam = getMap(frame)
        map_img = exposure.rescale_intensity(cam, out_range=(0, 255))
        map_img = np.uint8(map_img)
        heatmap_img = cv2.applyColorMap(map_img, cv2.COLORMAP_JET)

        #merge map and frame
        fin = cv2.addWeighted(heatmap_img, 0.5, frame, 0.5, 0)

        #show result
        cv2.imshow('frame', fin)

the getMap() function gets the headmap given the frame;
