[Insight-users] Connected component

[Mark Hastenteufel]

Hallo itk community!

Is there a connected component filter available in itk, i.e., a filter
that labels a segmented image? Such an algorithm should produce an
output image, where each cluster of connected pixels gets its own value
in the output image.

Furthermore I'm looking for a filter, which deletes all objects
(connected pixels) in an image, where the number of pixels are lower
than a threshold. I do not know the exact name of such an algorithm. 

Thank you in advance,

Mark
