I am using Colab for training my GAN network. The training session can be completed correctly, but even if I show a directory folder name, I cannot see any file or folder for output images which are generated in Colab. How can I see these output images in my google drive or where these image files are stored?

  • Have your checked [this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49031798/when-i-use-google-colaboratory-how-to-save-image-weights-in-my-google-drive)? – Cheche Nov 10 '18 at 13:58
  • Yes, I checked that one but I can not understand what is happening there. I tried the steps in that link but I cannot get any result. Actually when I run my code in pycharm and show the file directory, it is directly saving the images in that directory, but in colab things are confusing. I can read from a file in drive but I cannot save a file to drive from colab. – can uzun Nov 10 '18 at 14:01
  • Also google [docs](https://colab.research.google.com/notebooks/io.ipynb#scrollTo=bRFyEsdfBxJ9) explain how to download. Can you please upload your code to help you better? – Cheche Nov 10 '18 at 14:04
  • I am looking that google docs now. thanks. I shared the code above. Image.fromarray(image.astype(np.uint8)).save(image_path+"%03d.png" %(epoch)) in this code block I save the images giving the path but I think it is not the method to see the files in colab. – can uzun Nov 10 '18 at 14:10

I know several ways. The easiest one is a follows:

  1. Mount Google Drive locally:

from google.colab import drive drive.mount('/content/gdrive')

  1. Define the path to store your data, e.g.:

generator_cb = ImageGridCallback("output/gan_convolutional/epoch-{:03d}.png", generator_sampler(latent_dim, generator)),

  1. Click the horizontal arrow in the top right of the collab docs page and choose the tab "File" as in the picture. Then you can easy download the output.
