Hi Mike 2009/9/25 Mike Sarahan <msarahan@gmail.com>:
Sorry if I missed this in discussions at the sprint, but is there any reason we're not taking advantage of OpenCV? It may be a little more than what this scikit is aiming to offer, but it has some really nice, well-optimized routines. It's BSD licensed. I have been using the ctypes-opencv python wrapper, which is also BSD licensed.
I know there are two sets of wrappers, but I haven't used either. Do you know their pros and cons? OpenCV is a fairly heavy dependency, but if it adds good value I see little reason to avoid it. Regards Stéfan
