[Insight-developers] FW: itkRobustAutomaticThresholdCalculator

[M.Staring at lumc.nl]

Hi developers,

See the email below on how to name a new class for thresholding.

My preference would still be to have a name that describes what a class is doing, without being too general.

What's your opinion?

Regards,

Marius
