/** \class HessianToObjectnessMeasureImageFilter
 * \brief A filter to enhance M-dimensional objects in N-dimensional images
 *
 * The objectness measure is a generalization of Frangi's vesselness measure,
 * which is based on the analysis of the the Hessian eigen system. The filter
 * can enhance blob-like structures (M=0), vessel-like structures (M=1), 2D
 * plate-like structures (M=2), hyper-plate-like structures (M=3) in N-dimensional
 * images, with M<N.
 * The filter takes an image of a Hessian pixels ( SymmetricSecondRankTensor pixels
 * pixels ) and produces an enhanced image. The Hessian input image can be produced
 * using itk::HessianRecursiveGaussianImageFilter.
 *
