Open Source Mac Image Processing Libraries

This is the main repository for the SciPy library, one of the core packages that make up the SciPy stack. SciPy is an open source software used in the fields of mathematics, science, and engineering, with modules for statistics, optimization, integration, linear algebra, signal and image processing, and many more. The SciPy library contains many of the user-friendly and efficient numerical routines, including those for numerical integration, interpolation, and optimization. SciPy is built to work with NumPy, a software that provides convenient and fast N-dimensional array manipulation. Both SciPy and NumPy run on all popular operating systems, are fast and easy to install, and are powerful yet easy to use. They’re currently depended upon by numerous leading scientists and engineers all over the world. Try them for yourself!

The Point Cloud Library (PCL) is a standalone, large scale, open project for 2D/3D image and point cloud processing. PCL is released under the terms of the BSD license, and thus free for commercial and research use. Whether you’ve just discovered PCL or you’re a long time veteran, this page contains links to a set of resources that will help consolidate your knowledge on PCL and 3D processing. An additional Wiki resource for developers is available too. To simplify both usage and development, we split PCL into a series of modular libraries. PCL is cross-platform, and has been successfully compiled and deployed on Linux, MacOS, Windows, and Android. To simplify development, PCL is split into a series of smaller code libraries, that can be compiled separately. This modularity is important for distributing PCL on platforms with reduced computational or size constraints.

NOTE: the project has moved to https://scipy.org/scipylib/ --- go there to find latest versions. This sourceforge project contains only old historical versions of the software. SciPy is package of tools for science and engineering for Python. It includes modules for statistics, optimization, integration, linear algebra, Fourier transforms, signal and image processing, ODE solvers, and more.

The Simple Medical Imaging Library Interface (SMILI), pronounced 'smilie', is an open-source, light-weight and easy-to-use medical imaging viewer and library for all major operating systems. The main sMILX application features for viewing n-D images, vector images, DICOMs, anonymizing, shape analysis and models/surfaces with easy drag and drop functions. It also features a number of standard processing algorithms for smoothing, thresholding, masking etc. images and models, both with graphical user interfaces and/or via the command-line. See our YouTube channel for tutorial videos via the homepage. The applications are all built out of a uniform user-interface framework that provides a very high level (Qt) interface to powerful image processing and scientific visualisation algorithms from the Insight Toolkit (ITK) and Visualisation Toolkit (VTK). The framework allows one to build stand-alone medical imaging applications quickly and easily.

An implementation of Bruhn et al.'s fast variational optical flow algorithm using the OpenCV image processing library. The code calculates dense flow fields with a user-specified level of precision.

The Camellia library is an open source and cross-platform image processing library, written in plain C. It includes a lot of speed-optimized imaging functions (filtering, morpho, labeling, motion detection, warping, color conversion, project/backproject)

Malimpa stands for MAtlab Library for IMage Processing and Analysis. It provides functions for 2D/3D grascale/color image creation, filtering, or measurement. It requires, and complements Matlab Image Processing Toolbox. Important notice: the project is now hosted in GitHub, https://github.com/dlegland/matImage

MDSTk is a collection of 2D/3D image processing tools aimed at medical images. It contains routines for volume data processing (3D filtering, segmentation, etc.) as well as fast low-level vector graphics library for surface and tetrahedral meshing. MDSTk has been forked by 3Dim Laboratory s.r.o. to provide better support and further push its development forward. Please check VPL (Voxel Processing Library) project available on Bitbucket (https://bitbucket.org/3dimlab/vpl).

MatImage is a Matlab library for image processing and analysis in 2D and 3D. It contains more than 250 fonctions for image enhancement, filtering, analysis, or visualisation, as well as for creating basic test shapes. It is built as a complement of the Mathworks image processing toolbox (IPT). Project is being transfered to GitHub: http://github.com/dlegland/matImage

A numerical library designed for n-dimensional image-processing written in Java.
