Regarding the numpy/scipy and the machine learning/image classification
topic, have you heard of OpenCV?  It has a ton of libraries and functions
for doing machine learning things and image thing.  I think that's a good
starting point.  Many of the popular feature detection and segmentation
algorithms are already there.   Images are essentially a numpy array.
