Mahotas is a library of fast computer vision algorithms (all implemented in C++ for speed) operating over NumPy arrays.
It includes many algorithms implemented in C++ for speed while operating in numpy arrays and with a very clean Python interface.
Mahotas currently has over 100 functions for image processing and computer vision and it keeps growing. This is free and open source software.
