Hi,  
could any suggest to me a peak finder function for a 2D image with options to input threshold value for peak finding and option to enter minimum spacing between the peaks?  
I am effectively looking for an Julia function equaivalent to `peak_local_max` from `skimage`, which is a python image processing module.  
The function `findlocalmaxima` from Julia `Images` module turns out to grossly inadequate.  
Thanks a lot.
