9.75. ITK Valued Regional Maxima Image Filter
Transforms the image so that any pixel that is not a regional maxima is set to the minimum value for the pixel type. Pixels that are regional maxima retain their value.
The pixel neighborhood is controlled by the FullyConnected attribute. All adjacent pixels are included in the neighborhood when FullyConnected=True and the diagonally adjacent pixels are not included when FullyConnected=False. Different terminology is often used to describe neighborhoods – one common ex- ample is the “connectivity” notation, which refers to the number of pixels in the neighborhood. FullyCon- nected=False corresponds to a connectivty of 4 in 2D and 6 in 3D, while FullyConnected=True corresponds to a connectivity of 8 in 2D and 26 in 3D. FullyConnected=False is also commonly referred to as “face connected”.

Description
Regional maxima are flat zones surrounded by pixels of lower value. A completely flat image will be marked as a regional maxima by this filter.
