[Insight-users] Fast binary morphology dilation

[Miller, James V (Research)]

I still have this code.  My last modification is dated September 15th.

I lost a mailbox a few weeks ago, so I lost some of the message thread 
I had with  Jerome Schmid who wrote the code.  I believe I had made some 
changes to Jerome's original code to support streaming.

I think Jerome might have made another set of changes to this code
but I am not sure whether the version I have right now is his latest 
version.

I would be motivated to check this in today since I am about to get a 
new computer and I do not trust our computer deployment process will 
keep my copy around.  I think I lost the test/example that I was using
to test this program.

Jim

Sorry, I deleted too much. Here are the cited headers:

There was some early code in that thread, after addin some typename
keywords, it compiled and is working. I'm working with rather big 3D
data sets, so it takes 10-30 minutes with current
BinaryDilateImageFilter (having several objects I cannot use
DilateObjectMorphologyImageFilter). However with the fast dilate filter
it took always under one minute. Quite impressive speedup. It would be
pity if it got forgotten.
