ITK Numerics

The `itk-numerics` package provides Python bindings for the Insight Toolkit's (ITK) Numerics module, offering a suite of algorithms for numerical optimization and cost function evaluation, essential for tasks like image registration and parameter fitting. ITK itself is a powerful, open-source, cross-platform toolkit for N-dimensional scientific image analysis. The current stable version of ITK is 5.4.5, with version 6.0 in active beta development, and releases typically follow a maintenance schedule for stable branches and active development for major versions.
