/** \class PatchBasedDenoisingBaseImageFilter
 * \brief Base class for patch-based denoising algorithms.
 *
 * Implementation of a denoising filter that uses iterative non-local, or semi-local, weighted
 * averaging of image patches for image denoising. The intensity at each pixel 'p' gets updated as a
 * weighted average of intensities of a chosen subset of pixels from the image. The weights are
 * derived using a kernel function on distances between (i) the patch around pixel p and (ii) the
 * patches around the chosen subset of pixels in the image. This class of methods is motivated by
 * texture-based image models and relies on nonparametric statistical modeling in the
 * high-dimensional space of image patches. The choice of an appropriate kernel bandwidth parameter
 * underlying nonparametric modeling can be important and may be estimated using cross-validation
 * schemes.
 *
 * Engineering issues underlying this class of methods include the choice of the patch size, the
 * definition of a weighting mask on patches (e.g. to make patches more isotropic and less
 * rectangular), the number of iterations over the image, the scheme for sampling patches from the
 * image, and the weights balancing the regularization and data fidelity when the noise model is
 * known.
 *
 * This class of methods stems from the following two independent and simultaneous publications:
 *
 * Suyash P. Awate, Ross T. Whitaker.
 * Higher-Order Image Statistics for Unsupervised, Information-Theoretic, Adaptive, Image Filtering.
 * IEEE Int. Conf. Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) 2005; (2):44-51.
 *
 * Antoni Buades, Bartomeu Coll, Jean-Michel Morel.
 * A Non-Local Algorithm for Image Denoising.
 * IEEE Int. Conf. Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) 2005; (2):60-65.
 *
 * While the former work considers the denoising algorithm as performing entropy reduction using
 * nonparametric density estimation, the latter work treats it as nonparametric regression. Details
 * underlying this class of methods appear in:
 *
 * Suyash P. Awate, Ross T. Whitaker.
 * Unsupervised, Information-Theoretic, Adaptive Image Filtering for Image Restoration.
 * IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence (TPAMI) 2006; 28(3):364-376.
 *
 * Antoni Buades, Bartomeu Coll, Jean-Michel Morel.
 * Nonlocal Image and Movie Denoising.
 * International Journal of Computer Vision (IJCV) 2008; 76(2):123-139.
 *
 * This class provides the base software framework for implementing patch-based denoising methods
 * for multi-dimensional and multi-channel (i.e. vector-valued pixels) images. This framework is
 * multithreaded on shared-memory architectures. Multithreading is incorporated in, both,
 * intensity-updates and bandwidth-estimation stages by subdividing the image domain and associating
 * each sub-domain to a single thread for processing.
 *
 * To prevent oversmoothing, this class provides the framework for including a data-fidelity term
 * based on the knowledge of the noise model. The intensity updates are then treated as the sum of
 * (1) the weighted smoothing updates (weighted by SmoothingWeight) and
 * (2) the weighted fidelity updates (weighted by NoiseModelFidelityWeight) that prevent large
 * deviations of the denoised image from the noisy data.
