If you have Pillow installed with scipy and it is still giving you error then check your scipy version because it has been removed from scipy since 1 3 0rc1     rather install scipy 1 1 0 by      pip install scipy  1 1 0     check https   github com scipy scipy issues 6212          The method imread in scipy misc requires the forked package of PIL named Pillow  If you are having problem installing the right version of PIL try using imread in other packages     from matplotlib pyplot import imread  im   imread image png       To read  jpg images without PIL use     import cv2 as cv  im   cv imread image jpg             You can try   from scipy misc pilutil import imread instead of from scipy misc import imread    Please check the GitHub page   https   github com amueller mglearn issues 2  for more details
