/** \class CurvesLevelSetFunction
 *
 * \brief This function is used in CurvesLevelSetImageFilter to
 * segment structures in images based on user supplied edge potential map.
 *
 * \par CurvesLevelSetFunction is a subclass of the generic LevelSetFunction.
 * It is useful for segmentations based on a user supplied edge potential map which
 * has values close to zero in regions near edges (or high image gradient) and values
 * close to one in regions with relatively constant intensity. Typically, the edge
 * potential map is a function of the gradient, for example:
 *
 * \f[ g(I) = 1 / ( 1 + | (\nabla * G)(I)| ) \f]
 * \f[ g(I) = \exp^{-|(\nabla * G)(I)|} \f]
 *
 * where \f$ I \f$ is image intensity and
 * \f$ (\nabla * G) \f$ is the derivative of Gaussian operator.
 *
 * \par In this function both the propagation term \f$ P(\mathbf{x}) \f$
 * and the curvature spatial modifier term $\f$ Z(\mathbf{x}) \f$ are taken directly
 * from the edge potential image. The edge potential image is set via the
 * SetFeatureImage() method. An advection term \f$ A(\mathbf{x}) \f$ is constructed
 * from the negative gradient of the edge potential image. This term behaves like
 * a doublet attracting the contour to the edges.
 *
 * \par This implementation is based on:
 *  L. Lorigo, O. Faugeras, W.E.L. Grimson, R. Keriven, R. Kikinis, A. Nabavi,
 *  and C.-F. Westin, Curves: Curve evolution for vessel segmentation.
 *  Medical Image Analysis, 5:195-206, 2001.
