Re: skimage and opencv

Hi FranÃ¯Â¿Â½ois, that's an excellent question, and not a troll :-). Opencv is a very powerful library, but it focuses primarily on computer vision (feature detection and extraction, classification, ...), as opposed to image processing in general (with other tasks such as denoising, segmentation, ...). The other big difference is that skimage builds on numpy ndarrays, and uses the full power of the numpy API (including of course the basic facilities for processing arrays as images that come with numpy), as well as some of scipy functions (you could have added scipy.ndimage to your list -- a few functions in skimage are wrappers around scipy.ndimage, that exist for the sake of completeneness). One important consequence is that algorithms working for 3-d or even n-d images can be easily implemented in 3-d/n-d in skimage, whereas opencv is restricted to 2-D images (as far as I know). Thanks to the use of numpy arrays, the API of skimage is also quite pleasant for a numpy user, more than the API of opencv. A related difference is that skimage is written in python and cython, whereas opencv is a C++ library. The two libraries attract a different crowd of developers, and a Python/Cython toolkit based on numpy arrays is easier to develop and maintain inside the Scientific Python ecosystem. I'm sure that other devs/users will have things to add to this discussion!

Boundary/outline of objects in an Image
by ashz＠walla.co.il Feb. 15, 2016

Feb. 15, 2016

Hi, I try to focus on scikit-image instead of other non-open source software. Therefore, is there an example how to boundary/outline of objects in an Image? Something like this tutorial: http://www.mathworks.com/help/images/boundary-tracing-in-images.html Thanks

Hi Stéfan, I am looking on the "white space" issue (https://github.com/scikit-image/scikit-image/issues/1773), rewriting some code to achieve PEP 8 style and wondering on that spaces, but I'm really frightened on pulling my code. Is there a way to check the structure of the example pages before pulling it? Thank you very much!

Hi Stéfan and everyone! I would really like to help, but my Python experience is not so great. What could I do? Thank you very much for all your efforts on bringing that amazing software to all of us!

> > Hi Stefan , > I have been using python for developing simple image processing applications . I have used skimage as well. I would love to contribute to a project which involves image processing and machine learning but most importantly I want to gain an experience of working with open-source communities. I am interested in contributing to the Face Detection project. It would be helpful if I can get some tasks/ references / coding guidelines so that I can get started. Thank you Regards, Amit

Hi StÃ©fan, great idea! I'll join in the evenings from Paris, so that the timing won't be too bad for chatting with California! I had a quick look at open issues and pull requests tagged for 0.12 milestone, I don't know if all important issues have been tagged though. I can see that Travis is still failing on most pull requests, any hope to fix this before the release?
