My scipy.misc module appears to be missing imsave

Or pip install pillow in order to install a new PIL implementation. This works well in Python 3.4.

scipy.misc.imsave has been deprecated in newer Scipy versions.

Change your code to:

import imageio
imageio.imwrite('filename.jpg', array)

Try installing the Ubuntu package python3-imaging. This packages provides PIL (the Python Imaging Library). PIL is required by imsave (and other im* functions in scipy.misc).

I had the same problem and the answers to this question didn't help. I solved it by installing a previous version of scipy:

pip3 install scipy==0.17.0
