ToTensor in PyTorch

Buy Me a Coffee☕ *Memos: My post explains how to convert and scale a PIL Image to an Image in PyTorch. My post explains Compose(). My post explains ToImage(). My post explains ToDtype() about scale=True. My post explains PILToTensor(). My post explains ToPILImage(). My post explains OxfordIIITPet(). ToTensor() can convert a PIL(Pillow library) Image([H, W, C]), Image([..., C, H, W]) or ndarray to a tensor([C, H, W]) and scale the values of a PIL Image or ndarray to [0.0, 1,0] as shown below: *Memos: ToTensor() is deprecated so instead use Compose(transforms=[ToImage(), ToDtype(dtype=torch.float32, scale=True)]) according to the doc. A PIL Image is scaled to [0.0, 1.0] if the PIL Image belongs to one of the modes (L, LA, P, I, F, RGB, YCbCr, RGBA, CMYK, 1). A ndarray is scaled to [0.0, 1.0] if the ndarray is uint8 which is [0, 255]. The 1st argument is img(Required-Type:PIL Image, Image or tensor/ndarray(int/float/complex/bool)): *Memos: A tensor can be 0D or more D. A ndarray must be 2D or 3D.
