Import struct with different data type to python dataframe

Hi,
I tried using python to load the data stored in a matlab struct - the struct i in a file attached.
Here is what I tried:
import scipy.io
import pandas as pd
mat = scipy.io.loadmat("file.mat")
data = mat["struct"]
Then, when I look to what is inside of 'data' I have this:
array([[(MatlabOpaque([(b'', b'MCOS', b'string', array([[3707764736],
[ 2],
[ 1],
[ 1],
[ 1],
[ 1]], dtype=uint32)) ],
dtype=[('s0', 'O'), ('s1', 'O'), ('s2', 'O'), ('arr', 'O')]), MatlabOpaque([(b'', b'MCOS', b'datetime', array([[3707764736],
[ 2],
[ 1],
[ 1],
[ 2],
[ 2]], dtype=uint32)) ],
dtype=[('s0', 'O'), ('s1', 'O'), ('s2', 'O'), ('arr', 'O')]), MatlabOpaque([(b'', b'MCOS', b'duration', array([[3707764736],
[ 2],
[ 1],
[ 1],
[ 3],
[ 3]], dtype=uint32)) ],
dtype=[('s0', 'O'), ('s1', 'O'), ('s2', 'O'), ('arr', 'O')]), array([[1.0082, 1.0102, 1.01 ]])) ]],
dtype=[('Name', 'O'), ('init', 'O'), ('age', 'O'), ('measure', 'O')])
Hoy can I get the data stored in the mat file then?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
first of all, I suggest you rename the variable struct in your file: struct is a MATLAB data type, and that may create problems with your code.
Then, you can use the MATLAB Engine API for Python (Call MATLAB from Python - MATLAB & Simulink (mathworks.com)) to load your .mat file.
import matlab.engine
eng = matlab.engine.start_matlab()
s = eng.load('file.mat')
You'll be able to directly use some of the fields in your structure. For other fields (e.g., datetime) you would need to first convert them
import matlab.engine
from datetime import datetime
eng = matlab.engine.start_matlab()
s = eng.load('file.mat')
print(s['struct']['measure'])
print(datetime.strptime(eng.string(s['struct']['init']),'%d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S'))
Hope this helps.
Best,
Daniele
