PyIFT

Python Image Foresting Transform Library

PyIFT is a Python wrapper of a fork of the LIDS C library.

Its main feature is fast shortest-path algorithms in image grids and sparse graphs to perform the image foresting transform operators.

Installation

Install PyIFT via pip.

pip install pyift
