description: Randomly flip an image horizontally (left to right).

tf.image.random_flip_left_right

Randomly flip an image horizontally (left to right).

tf.image.random_flip_left_right(
    image, seed=None
)

With a 1 in 2 chance, outputs the contents of image flipped along the second dimension, which is width. Otherwise output the image as-is. When passing a batch of images, each image will be randomly flipped independent of other images.

Example usage:

>>> image = np.array([[[1], [2]], [[3], [4]]])
>>> tf.image.random_flip_left_right(image, 5).numpy().tolist()
[[[2], [1]], [[4], [3]]]

Randomly flip multiple images.

>>> images = np.array(
... [
...     [[[1], [2]], [[3], [4]]],
...     [[[5], [6]], [[7], [8]]]
... ])
>>> tf.image.random_flip_left_right(images, 6).numpy().tolist()
[[[[2], [1]], [[4], [3]]], [[[5], [6]], [[7], [8]]]]

Args

image 4-D Tensor of shape [batch, height, width, channels] or 3-D Tensor of shape [height, width, channels].
seed A Python integer. Used to create a random seed. See tf.compat.v1.set_random_seed for behavior.

Returns

A tensor of the same type and shape as image.

Raises

ValueError if the shape of image not supported.
