Rick and Joe, I'm not familiar with these erosion and dialation functions. Are they something that should be in SciPy? We could start an "idl" package that houses functions familiar to this community. Or maybe they should live in another place like "signal" or maybe an image processing package. Thoughts? I've crossed posted this to the scipy-dev@scipy.org list as this is probably the best place to continue such a discussion. eric ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joe Reinhardt" <jmr@engineering.uiowa.edu> To: <numpy-discussion@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Wednesday, December 19, 2001 11:12 PM Subject: [Numpy-discussion] converting IDL to python

The hardest part (as you mention) is that IDL has a really large collection of built-in functions which probably will not be readily available in Python. Until someone writes things like the morphological dilation and erosion operations, it won't be possible to translate IDL programs that use them.
By the way, I do have binary erosion and dilation, along with connected components analysis, flood fill region grow, and several other common 2D/3D image processing functions working in NumPy.
I would be glad to share them. I don't know how similar the interface is to IDL, since I have never used IDL.
