It would be very helpful to add examples for maxflow.fastmin module...

Thank you so much for writing this package!
The documentation is great in the maxflow part.
But it's a little confusing in the maxflow.fastmin part...
It would be great if you can improve the documentation on this part.
Thank you again.
I made a minimal example Here.
Hope it helps.
Hi! I have a question about the 2-D matrix V.
In the example you provided, the values of V are the same for all pixels.
But sometimes, for different pixels, the neighborhood cost should be different, and I think that each pixel in an image should be corresponding to a V.
are the values of V fixed for all pixels in this module?

Unfortunately yes, they are fixed. I wrote the fastmin module a long time ago and I didn't keep it updated with the rest of the API. The good news is that the C++ implementations for aexpansion_grid_step and abswap_grid_step are unnecessary now, and they can be easily implemented in Python with the new API (or so I want to believe). I am planning to update this in the future and get rid of the old C++ fastmin implementation.
In the meantime, you can just reuse the implementation of aexpansion_grid (or abswap_grid) from fastmin.py and write your own aexpansion_grid_step (or abswap_grid_step) that builds the graph using the neighborhood costs you want.
Sorry for the inconvenience. I will fix this as soon as I have time.
