Opinions on next release about labellib HOT 5 OPEN

For the next release we could/should link labellib to Zenodo (see: link). This way, LabelLib gets a DOI and could be cited.

We still probably should change all the std::array<> and std::vector<> in the interfaces to the Eigen:: equivivalents to achieve better consistency. It will change the API. I will probably not be able to do it in the next 2 weeks, but later I could implement that. Should we postpone the release until then or just make another release?

I think consistency is a good idea. I don't know about Pybind11 but in SWIG Eigen vectors and arrays can be directly mapped to numpy arrays. If possible, mapping to python lists could be avoided, as a direct map from Eigen -> Numpy array could be more efficient as opposed to Eigen -> List -> Numpy.

Yes, Pybind11 maps Eigen -> Numpy by default.

Great, I think the support of Python lists can be dropped. Mapping Eigen3 arrays to numpy should be anyway more performant.
