Hi Hakim, Unfortunately the Matlab source you derived from has an incompatible license with ours: it is GPL v3+. That license is 'viral' meaning it applies also to derivative works, thus your Python translation is also under the GPL v3+.
There is no way around this. As a result we can't include that port in scikit-image without relicensing the entire project. When doing a port, it's essential that the source be under a compatible license ideally before you start working. On the other hand, implementing from scratch out of a publication avoids this - so long as patents aren't involved. Sorry if that is disappointing. This is a confusing area to be sure.
