"""
def __init__(self, master, initialdir='', filetypes=()):
super().__init__(master)
self.filepath = tk.StringVar()
self._initaldir = initialdir
self._filetypes = filetypes
self._create_widgets()
self._display_widgets()
def _create_widgets(self):
self._entry = tk.Entry(self, textvariable=self.filepath, font=("bold", 10))
a=self._entry
self._button = tk.Button(self, text="Browse...",bg="red",fg="white", command=self.browse)
self._classify=tk.Button(self,text="Classify",bg="red",fg="white", command=self.classify)
self._label=tk.Label(self, text="IMAGE CLASSIFICATION USING DEEP LERAINING.", bg="blue", fg="white",height=3, font=("bold", 14))
def _display_widgets(self):
self._label.pack(fill='y')
self._entry.pack(fill='x', expand=True)
self._button.pack(fill='y')
self._classify.pack(fill='y')
def retrieve_input(self):
#str1 = self._entry.get()
#a=a.replace('/','//')
print (str1)
def classify(self):
newwin = tk.Toplevel(root)
newwin.geometry("500x500")
label = tk.Label(newwin, text="Classification", bg="blue", fg="white",height=3, font=("bold", 14))
label.pack()
canvas = tk.Canvas(newwin, height=300, width=300)
canvas.pack()
my_image = tk.PhotoImage(file=a, master=root)
canvas.create_image(150, 150, image=my_image)
newwin.mainloop()
def browse(self):
""" Browses a .png file or all files and then puts it on the entry.

self.filepath.set(fd.askopenfilename(initialdir=self._initaldir,
filetypes=self._filetypes))
if __name__ == '__main__':

Your global variable a which stores the path of the image is not getting updated. You need to explicitly do it. Below is the code that works. Have a look at the browse() function.
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import filedialog as fd
a=""
str1 = "e"
class Browse(tk.Frame):
""" Creates a frame that contains a button when clicked lets the user to select
a file and put its filepath into an entry.
"""
def __init__(self, master, initialdir='', filetypes=()):
super().__init__(master)
self.filepath = tk.StringVar()
self._initaldir = initialdir
self._filetypes = filetypes
self._create_widgets()
self._display_widgets()
def _create_widgets(self):
self._entry = tk.Entry(self, textvariable=self.filepath, font=("bold", 10))
a = self._entry
self._button = tk.Button(self, text="Browse...",bg="red",fg="white", command=self.browse)
self._classify=tk.Button(self,text="Classify",bg="red",fg="white", command=self.classify)
self._label=tk.Label(self, text="IMAGE CLASSIFICATION USING DEEP LERAINING.", bg="blue", fg="white",height=3, font=("bold", 14))
def _display_widgets(self):
self._label.pack(fill='y')
self._entry.pack(fill='x', expand=True)
self._button.pack(fill='y')
self._classify.pack(fill='y')
def retrieve_input(self):
#str1 = self._entry.get()
#a=a.replace('/','//')
print (str1)
def classify(self):
global a
newwin = tk.Toplevel(root)
newwin.geometry("500x500")
label = tk.Label(newwin, text="Classification", bg="blue", fg="white",height=3, font=("bold", 14))
label.pack()
canvas = tk.Canvas(newwin, height=300, width=300)
canvas.pack()
my_image = tk.PhotoImage(file=a, master=root)
canvas.create_image(150, 150, image=my_image)
newwin.mainloop()
def browse(self):
""" Browses a .png file or all files and then puts it on the entry.
"""
global a
a = fd.askopenfilename(initialdir=self._initaldir, filetypes=self._filetypes)
self.filepath.set(a)
if __name__ == '__main__':
root = tk.Tk()
labelfont = ('times', 10, 'bold')
root.geometry("500x500")
filetypes = (
('Portable Network Graphics', '*.png'),
("All files", "*.*")
)
file_browser = Browse(root, initialdir=r"~/Desktop", filetypes=filetypes)
file_browser.pack(fill='y')
root.mainloop()
P.S. Do change your initialdir. I changed it as I am not on Windows.
