PYME builds on a large number of excellent packages within the python and numpy/scipy community, the authors of which I would like to thank.

I would specifically like to mention the 3rd party packages I have bundled with PYME to simplify compilation / distribution so that credit is given where deserved. These are (in no particular order):

- the cpmath module from cell profiler (http://www.cellprofiler.org/)

- Christoph Gohlke's tifffile (http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/)

- the patched PIL TiffImagePlugin from Priithon (http://code.google.com/p/priithon/)

- the levmar Levenberg-Marquardt solver (http://www.ics.forth.gr/~lourakis/levmar/)

- qHull (http://www.qhull.org/)

- jQuery (http://jquery.com/)
