Hello everyone, so I tried looking for options for image processing libraries in elixir but so far haven’t found any good options, the closest I’ve seen is using the C API for OpenCV which is deprecated so that’s not an option, are there any libraries for elixir for more advanced image processing like filtering (Intensity, Spacial, Frequency, Transform, Morphological, in a nutshell more biometrics oriented image processing) available?
Thanks in advance for the answers!

From what I seen and read, mongrify (GitHub - elixir-mogrify/mogrify: Image processing in Elixir (ImageMagick command line wrapper) · GitHub) seems to be highly regarded for manipulating images, however it’s just a wrapper for ImageMagick.

Well to be fair, that’s nothing bad. You don’t depend on any dynamically linked libraries / NIFs / Ports, just on a few tools being installed in your $PATH.
We should definitely depend on mature hardcore tools, I am all for it. And such wrappers make the experience even better!

It might be a good option eventually but right now it only supports (for filtering) Gaussian Blur
