     'EBImage' is an image processing and analysis package for R. Its
     primary goal is to enable automated analysis of large sets of
     images such as those obtained in high throughput automated
     microscopy.

     The package uses the 'ImageMagick' library for image I/O
     operations and some image processing methods. The 'GTK' library is
     used for displaying images using 'display'.

     'EBImage' relies on the 'Image' object to store and process images
     but also works on multi-dimensional arrays.
