• Freeimage fixes on Windows by Christoph Gohlke

And a few bugfixes:

• Fix type bug in 32 bit machines (Bug report by Lech Wiktor Piotrowski)
• Fix convolve1d
• Fix rank_filter

0.7.1 (January 6 2012)

The most important change fixed compilation on Mac OS X

Other changes:

• Add convolve1d
• Check that convolution arguments have right dimensions (instead of crashing)
• Add descriptor_only argument to surf.descriptors
• Specify all function signatures on freeimage.py

For version 0.7 (Dec 5 2011):

The big change was that the dependency on scipy was removed. As part of this process, the interpolate submodule was added. A few important bug fixes as well.

• Allow specification of centre in Zernike moment computation
• Fix Local Binary Patterns
• Remove dependency on scipy
• Add interpolate module (from scipy.ndimage)
• Add labeled_sum & labeled_sizes
• gvoronoi no longer depends on scipy
• mahotas is importable without scipy

• Fix GIL handling on errors (reported by Gareth McCaughan)
• Fix freeimage for 64-bit computers

For version 0.6.6 (August 8 2011): - Fix fill_polygon bug (fix by joferkington) - Fix Haralick feature 6 (fix by Rita Simões) - Implement morph.get_structuring_element for ndim > 2. This implies that functions such as label() now also work in multiple dimensions - Add median filter & rank_filter functions - Add template_match function - Refactor by use of mahotas.internal - Better error message for when the compiled modules cannot be loaded - Update contact email. All docs in numpydoc format now.

For version 0.6.5: - Add max_points & descriptor_only arguments to mahotas.surf - Fix haralick for 3-D images (bug report by Rita Simões) - Better error messages - Fix hit&miss for non-boolean inputs - Add label() function

For version 0.6.4:

• Fix bug in cwatershed() when using return_lines=1
• Fix bug in cwatershed() when using equivalent types for image and markers
• Move tests to mahotas.tests and include them in distribution
• Include ChangeLog in distribution
• Fix compilation on the Mac OS
• Fix compilation warnings on gcc

For version 0.6.3:

• Improve mahotas.stretch() function
• Fix corner case in surf (when determinant was zero)
• threshold argument in mahotas.surf
• imreadfromblob() & imsavetoblob() functions
• max_points argument for mahotas.surf.interest_points()
