   * \class SegmentationLevelSetImageFilter
   *
   * \brief A base class which defines the API for implementing a special class of
   * image segmentation filters using level set methods.
   *
   * \par OVERVIEW
   * This object defines the framework for a class of segmentation filters which
   * use level set methods.  These filters work by constructing a ``feature image''
   * onto which the evolving level set locks as it moves.  In the feature image,
   * values that are close to zero are associated with object boundaries.  An
   * original (or preprocessed) image is given to the filter as the feature image
   * and a seed for the level set is given as the input of the filter.  The seed is
   * converted into a level set embedding which propagates according to the features
   * calculated from the original image.
   *
   * \par TEMPLATE PARAMETERS
   * There are two required and one optional template parameter for these
   * filters.
   *
   * TInputImage is the image type of the initial model you will input to the
   * filter using SetInput() or SetInitialImage().
   *
   * TFeatureImage is the image type of the image from which the filter will
   * calculate the speed term for segmentation (see INPUTS).
   *
   * TOutputPixelType is the data type used for the output image phi, the implicit
   * level set image.  This should really only ever be set as float (default) or
   * double.
   *
   * \par INPUTS
   * The input to any subclass of this filter is the seed image for the initial
   * level set embedding.  As with other subclasses of the
   * SparseLevelSetImageFilter, the type of the input image is is not important.
   * The (RequestedRegion) size of the seed image must, however, match the
   * (RequestedRegion) size of the feature image.
   *
   * You must identify the initial front (surface) in the input image.  You do
   * this by specifying its isovalue through the method SetIsoSurfaceValue(float
   * f).  The algorithm will then initialize its solution using the front represented by
   * value f.  Note that the front is always represented by isosurface zero in
   * the output and not the isosurface you specified for the input.  This is
   * because, for simplicity, the filter will shift your input image so that the
   * active front has zero values.
   *
   * \par
   * Depending on the particular application and filter that you are using, the
   * feature image should be preprocessed with some type of noise reduction
   * filtering.  The feature image input can be of any type, but it will be cast
   * to floating point before calculations are done.
   *
   * \par OUTPUTS
   * The output of any subclass of this filter is a level set embedding as
   * described in SparseFieldLevelSetImageFilter.  The zero crossings of the output
   * image give the pixels closest to the level set boundary.  By ITK convention,
   * NEGATIVE values are pixels INSIDE the segmented region and POSITIVE values are
   * pixels OUTSIDE the segmented region.
   *
   * \par PARAMETERS
   * The MaximumRMSChange parameter is used to determine when the solution has
   * converged.  A lower value will result in a tighter-fitting solution, but
   * will require more computations.  Too low a value could put the solver into
   * an infinite loop unless a reasonable NumberOfIterations parameter is set.
   * Values should always be greater than 0.0 and less than 1.0.
   *
   * \par
   * The NumberOfIterations parameter can be used to halt the solution after a
   * specified number of iterations, overriding the MaximumRMSChange halting
   * criteria.
   *
   * \par
   * The standard convention for ITK level-set segmentation filters is that
   * POSITIVE propagation (speed) and advection terms cause the surface to EXPAND
   * while negative terms cause the surface to CONTRACT.  When the
   * ReverseExpansionDirection parameter is set to TRUE (on), it tells the
   * function object to reverse the standard ITK convention so that NEGATIVE
   * terms cause EXPANSION and positive terms cause CONTRACTION.
   *
   * This parameter can be safely changed as appropriate for a particular
   * application or data set to achieve the desired behavior.
   *
   * \par
   * The FeatureScaling parameter controls the magnitude of the features calculated
   * for use in the level set propagation and advection speeds.  This value simply
   * sets both parameters to equal values at once.  Some filters may only use on of
   * these two terms and this method is a generic way to set either or both without
   * having to know which is in use.
   *
   * \par
   * The CurvatureScaling parameter controls the magnitude of the curvature values
   * which are calculated on the evolving isophote.  This is important in
   * controlling the relative effect of curvature in the calculation.  Default
   * value is 1.0.  Higher values relative to the other level set equation terms
   * (propagation and advection) will give a smoother result.
   *
   * \par
   * The PropagationScaling parameter controls the scaling of the scalar
   * propagation (speed) term relative to other terms in the level set
   * equation. Setting this value will  override any value already set by
   * FeatureScaling.
   *
   * \par
   * The AdvectionScaling parameter controls the scaling of the vector
   * advection field term relative to other terms in the level set
   * equation. Setting this value will  override any value already set by
   * FeatureScaling.
   *
   * \warning This is an abstract class. It is not intended to be instantiated
   * by itself. Instead, you should use the derived classes. This is the reason
   * why the New() operator (itkNewMacro) is missing from the class API.
   *
   * \par
   *  See LevelSetFunction for more information.
