Processing images with Mahotas

Mahotas is a Python library for image processing and computer vision-related tasks. It was developed by Luis Pedro.

It implements many computer vision-related algorithms. It has been implemented in C++ and it operates on NumPy arrays. It also has a clean interface for Python 3.

Mahotas currently has over 100 functions for image processing and computer vision, and that number keeps growing with every release. This project is under active development and there is a new release every few months. Apart from the added functionality, every new release brings improvements in performance.
