Abstract
Mahotas is a computer vision library for Python. It contains traditional\nimage processing functionality such as filtering and morphological operations\nas well as more modern computer vision functions for feature computation,\nincluding interest point detection and local descriptors.\n The interface is in Python, a dynamic programming language, which is very\nappropriate for fast development, but the algorithms are implemented in C++ and\nare tuned for speed. The library is designed to fit in with the scientific\nsoftware ecosystem in this language and can leverage the existing\ninfrastructure developed in that language.\n Mahotas is released under a liberal open source license (MIT License) and is\navailable from (http://github.com/luispedro/mahotas) and from the Python\nPackage Index (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/mahotas).\n
