Minimal code for rendering a numpy array as an image in a Jupyter notebook in memory. Borrowed from the Deep Dream notebook.

showarray.py

import PIL.Image
from cStringIO import StringIO
import IPython.display
import numpy as np
def showarray(a, fmt='png'):
    a = np.uint8(a)
    f = StringIO()
    PIL.Image.fromarray(a).save(f, fmt)
    IPython.display.display(IPython.display.Image(data=f.getvalue()))
