Conceptualization of seeded region growing by pixels aggregation. Part   1: the framework
  Adams and Bishop have proposed in 1994 a novel region growing algorithm called seeded region growing by pixels aggregation (SRGPA). This paper introduces a framework to implement an algorithm using SRGPA. This framework is built around two concepts: localization and organization of applied action. This conceptualization gives a quick implementation of algorithms, a direct translation between the mathematical idea and the numerical implementation, and an improvement of algorithms efficiency.
