In the last chapter, you studied advanced image processing with Pillow. Pillow is a nice starting point for image processing operations. However, it has its own limitations. When it comes to implementing elaborate image processing operations like segmentation, morphological operations, advanced filters, and measurements, Pillow is inadequate. You really need to use advanced libraries for image processing. The SciPy toolkit serves as a foundation for all the scientific usage of Python. It is extensively used for a variety of scientific operations.

SciPy stands ...
