Other popular image processing libraries
Python 3 has many third-party libraries. Many of these libraries use NumPy for processing images. Let's have a look at a list of the available libraries:
skimage
(https://scikit-image.org/)SimplelTK
(http://www.simpleitk.org/)scipy.ndimage
(https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/ndimage.html)
These are all NumPy-based image processing libraries. The Python imaging library and its well-maintained fork, pillow
(https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/), are non-NumPy-based image manipulation libraries. They also have interfaces to convert images between the NumPy and PIL image formats.
We can combine code that uses various libraries to create various computer vision applications with the desired functionality.
In the next section, we will explore the Jupyter Notebook.
