/** \class CollidingFrontsImageFilter
*
* \brief Selects a region of space where two independent fronts run towards
* each other.
*
* The filter can be used to quickly segment anatomical structures (e.g. for
* level set initialization).
*
* The filter uses two instances of FastMarchingUpwindGradientImageFilter to
* compute the gradients of arrival times of two wavefronts propagating from
* two sets of seeds. The input of the filter is used as the speed of the two
* wavefronts. The output is the dot product between the two gradient vector
* fields.
*
* The filter works on the following basic idea. In the regions where the dot
* product between the two gradient fields is negative, the two fronts
* propagate in opposite directions. In the regions where the dot product is
* positive, the two fronts propagate in the same direction. This can be used
* to extract the region of space between two sets of points.
*
* If StopOnTargets is On, then each front will stop as soon as all seeds of
* the other front have been reached. This can markedly speed up the execution
* of the filter, since wave propagation does not take place on the complete
* image.
*
* Optionally, a connectivity criterion can be applied to the resulting dot
* product image. In this case, the only negative region in the output image is
* the one connected to the seeds.
