GNU Guile-CV
Image Processing and Analysis in Guile
a Computer Vision functional programming library
Guile-CV - Image Processing and Analysis in Guile - is a Computer Vision functional programming library for the Guile Scheme language.
Guile-CV is based on Vigra (Vision with Generic Algorithms), enhanced with additional
algorithms (Image Textures, Delineate,
Reconstruction and many more), all accessible through a
nice, clean and easy to use high level API.
Guile-CV is natively multi-threaded,
and takes advantage of multiple cores, using high-level and fine
grained application-level parallelism constructs available in
Guile, based on its support to POSIX
threads.
Guile-CV objective is to be a robust,
reliable and fast - Image Processing and Analysis -
Computer Vision functional programming library for the
Guile Scheme language. Guile-CV also wants to be easy to use, study,
modify and extend.
Guile-CV can be used as an educational
sofware, a research toolbox but it can also be used 'in
production': Guile-CV is robust,
reliable and fast, and we will make sure
Guile-CV remains robust,
reliable and fast as it grows.
Guile-CV also has a Savannah project page.
