py-clesperanto

Conda Version PyPI License Development Status Build codecov Python Version Code style: black GitHub stars GitHub forks DOI

pyclesperanto is the python package of clEsperanto - a multi-language framework for GPU-accelerated image processing. It relies on a familly of OpenCL kernels originated from CLIJ. This package is developped in python and C++ wrapped using PyBind11, and uses the C++ CLIc library as a processing backend.

Reference and examples

An in-depth API reference and package documentation can be found here, and several demonstration notebook on how to use the library and major functionnality are available in the demos folder

Installation

  • Get a conda/python environment, e.g. via mamba-forge.
    • If you never used python/conda environments before, please follow these instructions first.
  • Create a new environment and activate it:
mamba create --name cle
mamba activate cle
mamba install -c conda-forge pyclesperanto

MacOS users may need to install the following package: mamba install -c conda-forge ocl_icd_wrapper_apple Linux users may need to install the following package: mamba install -c conda-forge ocl-icd-system

NOTE: It is also possible to install pyclesperanto with pip

Troubleshooting: Graphics cards drivers

In case you encounter one of the following error messages:

  • "ImportError: DLL load failed while importing cl: The specified procedure could not be found" see also
  • "clGetPlatformIDs failed: PLATFORM_NOT_FOUND_KHR"
  • "No backend available. Please install either OpenCL or CUDA on your system."
  • "No device available. Please install either OpenCL or CUDA on your system."

please install recent drivers for your graphics card and/or OpenCL device. Select the right driver source depending on your hardware from this list:

Linux user may have to install packages such as intel-opencl-icd or rocm-opencl-runtime depending on their GPU.

Code Example

import pyclesperanto as cle
from skimage.io import imread, imsave

# initialize GPU
device = cle.select_device()
print("Used GPU: ", device)

image = imread("https://samples.fiji.sc/blobs.png")

# push image to device memory
input_image = cle.push(image)

# process the image
inverted = cle.subtract_image_from_scalar(input_image, scalar=255)
blurred = cle.gaussian_blur(inverted, sigma_x=1, sigma_y=1)
binary = cle.threshold_otsu(blurred)
labeled = cle.connected_components_labeling(binary)

# The maxmium intensity in a label image corresponds to the number of objects
num_labels = cle.maximum_of_all_pixels(labeled)

# print out result
print("Num objects in the image: " + str(num_labels))

# read image from device memory
output_image = cle.pull(labeled)
imsave("result.tif", output_image)
