For the long term... We might want to investigate making Scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) algorithms available in CP:

And its updated cousin, Speeded Up Robust Features (SURF):

Another potential method to discuss in the group is using local gradient convergence filters to find peaks in images, which is less dependent on image contrast. Pedro Quelhas gave a talk on this approach recently and would be a good contact.
