Dear Yuanyuan, First of all, it is not a good idea to initialize the array with values using `np.empty`. I'd recommend to use either `np.random.rand` or `np.random.randint`.
As for main point of your question, I believe you might need http://scikit-image.org/docs/dev/api/skimage.html#img-as-float (see also http://scikit-image.org/docs/dev/user_guide/data_types.html ). So, you can either create an array of floats [0:1) via `np.random.rand`, or create an array of uints via `np.random.randint`, and call `img_as_float`. Then `equalize_adapthist` should work flawlessly.
