From: Pouria on
running to the same problem using Pymat module to call matlab engine from python.
I am running a brain segmentation script both using matlab command line itself and through the pymat module from python.
the results are not the same and i think it has something to do with this failure to initialize warning, my plan is to implement a delay and see if that cures it.
