no — consensus-based community project with a steering council

BSD-3-Clause and built from the public repository. It is a community project run by consensus under a steering council, with nothing for sale.

Adoption

5 high confidence

Measured on monthly PyPI downloads of the scikit-image package.

Capability

1 high confidence
1.0

scikit-image supplies classical image-processing operations and fits no learned predictor of its own, which places it with OpenCV as a primitives library; OpenCV's scope is broader and extends to running neural networks.
