public interface ImageClassificationModel<T extends Image<?,T>>
extends EstimatableModel<T,FImage>, Serializable

An ImageClassificationModel is a EstimatableModel constructed between an generic image and a probability map in the form of an FImage. Potential uses for such a model are for the prediction of certain classes of pixels in an image. For example, a model could be constructed that predicted skin-tones in an image based on hue and saturation values of pixels. With such a model, a colour image could be presented, and a probability map would be returned.
