[ITK Community] Difference between itk::BinaryImageToLabelMapFilter and itk::ConnectedComponentImageFilter

[Matt McCormick]

Hi Ruturaj,

BinaryImageToLabelMapFilter returns a LabelMap [1], which is a special
data structure.  If the LabelGeometryImageFilter is desired, then the
ConnectedComponentImageFilter may be more desirable to avoid the use
of the LabelMapToLabeImageFilter.

HTH,
Matt
