Well, fortunately there are known algorithms already: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_registration > If I had such a challenge, I'd probably use Pillow, but not till > I knew what subset I was solving. I don't think Pillow has any support for registration. I'd probably start by looking for Python bindings of a library that does handle it, like ITK. Searching for "itk python" turns up a number of results. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
