Problem with miobase.py on Windows

[geriby]

I'm traing to run your program on windows. I Have installed anaconda for numpy and scipy and

changed input source: /dev/null' ---> 'NUL'
shlex.split(mc), stdout=open('NUL', 'w'), cwd=script_dirname)

But currently when I run this a have following error:

C:\Anaconda\python.exe D:/gitRepo/selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master/selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master/selective_search.py
selective_search({'D:\gitRepo\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master/000015.jpg','D:\gitRepo\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master/cat.jpg','D:\gitRepo\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master/000015.jpg','D:\gitRepo\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master/cat.jpg','D:\gitRepo\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master/000015.jpg','D:\gitRepo\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master/cat.jpg','D:\gitRepo\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master/000015.jpg','D:\gitRepo\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master\selective_search_ijcv_with_python-master/cat.jpg'}, 'c:\users\opuk\appdata\local\temp\tmphtivfm.mat')

TypeError: buffer is too small for requested array

Could you help me find solution?

Best regards.

Hi I am trying to use selective search on a 8-channel image, and I am facing similar error

selective_search_rcnn({'/home/revathy/caffe-master/images/image0001.tif'}, '/tmp/tmpaHq356.mat')
Traceback (most recent call last):

Did you find a fix for it ?

I fixed the problem by that redefined the path in the "def_input.txt": /path/to/caffe/examples/images/fish-bike.jpg.
