scipy.misc module has no attribute imread?
imread is deprecated in SciPy 1.0.0, and will be removed in 1.2.0.Use imageio.imread instead.
import imageioim = imageio.imread('astronaut.png')im.shape # im is a numpy array(512, 512, 3)imageio.imwrite('imageio:astronaut-gray.jpg', im[:, :, 0])
You need to install Pillow (formerly PIL). From the docs on scipy.misc:
Note that Pillow is not a dependency of SciPy but the image manipulation functions indicated in the list below are not available without it:

imread...
After installing Pillow, I was able to access imread as follows:
In [1]: import scipy.miscIn [2]: scipy.misc.imreadOut[2]: <function scipy.misc.pilutil.imread>
imread is depreciated after version 1.2.0!So to solve this issue I had to install version 1.1.0.
pip install scipy==1.1.0
