Microbiology and/or image analysis tools

[BW Glitch]

Hello all,

I've been searching on the web for microbiology and or image analysis
tools in any language (but I would prefer to be in Python ;), but I
haven't found anything useful. Almost every library I've found is
commercial. The only one I've seen open source is OpenEV (
http://openev.sourceforge.net/ ).

Is there any library open source available in these areas?

Thank you very much,

Andres Rosado

I don't know if it is written in Python (probably not), but iPath might
be of interest to you, maybe - see http://ipath.sourceforge.net/ - it is
certainly an interesting and commendable project.

A good place to start is http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/~cil/vision.html

In some fields of science, the data behind a paper is made accessible.
In computer vision the data, in this case, software, is usually not
available. In most cases, I think the authors don't want to bother
making the software good enough for others to use.
