/**
* @class BasicRetinaFilter
* @brief Brief overview, this class provides tools for low level image processing:
* --> this class is able to perform:
* -> first order Low pass optimized filtering
* -> local luminance adaptation (able to correct back light problems and contrast enhancement)
* -> progressive low pass filter filtering (higher filtering on the borders than on the center)
* -> image data between 0 and 255 resampling with different options, linear rescaling, sigmoide)
*
* NOTE : initially the retina model was based on double format scalar values but
* a good memory/precision compromise is float...
* also the double format precision does not make so much sense from a biological point of view (neurons value coding is not so precise)
*
* TYPICAL USE:
*
* // create object at a specified picture size
* BasicRetinaFilter *_photoreceptorsPrefilter;
* _photoreceptorsPrefilter =new BasicRetinaFilter(sizeRows, sizeWindows);
*
* // init gain, spatial and temporal parameters:
* _photoreceptorsPrefilter->setCoefficientsTable(gain,temporalConstant, spatialConstant);
*
* // during program execution, call the filter for local luminance correction or low pass filtering for an input picture called "FrameBuffer":
* _photoreceptorsPrefilter->runFilter_LocalAdapdation(FrameBuffer);
* // or (Low pass first order filter)
* _photoreceptorsPrefilter->runFilter_LPfilter(FrameBuffer);
* // get output frame and its size:
* const unsigned int output_nbRows=_photoreceptorsPrefilter->getNBrows();
* const unsigned int output_nbColumns=_photoreceptorsPrefilter->getNBcolumns();
* const double *outputFrame=_photoreceptorsPrefilter->getOutput();
*
* // at the end of the program, destroy object:
* delete _photoreceptorsPrefilter;

* @author Alexandre BENOIT, benoit.alexandre.vision@gmail.com, LISTIC : www.listic.univ-savoie.fr, Gipsa-Lab, France: www.gipsa-lab.inpg.fr/
* Creation date 2007
* synthesis of the work described in Alexandre BENOIT thesis: "Le systeme visuel humain au secours de la vision par ordinateur"
