The script can be used to reduce noise in photos by taking several pictures and merging them together by averaging, or to remove moving objects from an image using the median method. The images are aligned before merging so you can use hand-held shots. Primarily created as a Nautilus script, but it also works independently - takes files (paths) as arguments. Method is determined by setting the method variable, it can be done in another script which will then source (.) this script. It's basically a command line tool, but it uses the zenity window to show progress of the task.
Installation of dependencies (Ubuntu):
apt-get install imagemagick hugin-tools exiftool
