Subject: [PATCH] ENH: Add storage-neutral out-of-core filter execution

Adds storage-neutral APIs for choosing, creating, reading, writing, and
recovering data stores at runtime. Equips SimplnxCore and
OrientationAnalysis filters with bounded direct and scanline execution paths,
plus memory budgeting, allocation safeguards, bulk transfer primitives, and
DREAM3D/HDF5 integration. 561 files changed, +67105 / -18693 lines.

================================================================================
1. Storage-neutral data stores and runtime format resolution
================================================================================
Files: src/simplnx/DataStructure, src/simplnx/DataStructure/IO,
src/simplnx/Core, src/simplnx/Filter/Actions

Extend datastore contracts with bulk, chunk, extent, planned-format, and
recovery metadata operations while retaining in-memory implementations. Add
runtime format resolvers and DataIOCollection hooks so applications can supply
concrete storage backends without coupling simplnx to them. Carry selected
formats through array, neighbor-list, geometry, string-store, HDF5, and
DREAM3D creation and recovery paths, including metadata-only placeholder
stores.

================================================================================
2. Bounded-memory execution infrastructure
================================================================================
Files: src/simplnx/Filter/IFilter.cpp, src/simplnx/Utilities,
src/simplnx/Common/Extent.hpp

Add machine-aware shared memory budgeting, defensive preflight and execution
allocation handling, extent-based access, slice-buffered transfers, union-find
support, and storage-aware algorithm dispatch. Update array, geometry,
clustering, meshing, parsing, and parallel utilities to use batched transfers
and bounded temporary storage while preserving cancellation and error
reporting.

================================================================================
3. Direct and scanline filter algorithms
================================================================================
Files: src/Plugins/SimplnxCore/src/SimplnxCore/Filters,
src/Plugins/OrientationAnalysis/src/OrientationAnalysis/Filters

Split storage-sensitive filters into direct and scanline implementations and
select the appropriate path from runtime storage characteristics. Add bounded,
chunk-sequential processing for segmentation, statistics, feature analysis,
meshing, transforms, sampling, file output, and orientation workflows while
retaining optimized in-memory paths.

================================================================================
4. Tests, documentation, and build integration
================================================================================
Files: src/Plugins/*/test, src/Plugins/*/docs, test, cmake, vcpkg.json

Register both algorithm paths, expand exemplar and regression coverage for
storage formats, migration, memory safety, bulk I/O, and filter equivalence,
and document affected filters. Update CMake, test utilities, plugin metadata,
and dependencies for the storage-neutral execution model.

Verification: The squashed commit tree is checked against the original range
tip. No additional build or test run is performed for this history-only
rewrite.

 In previous versions a file would have been produced instead. If you wish to recreate this, you can write the Attribute Matrix as a CSV/Text file.
 
 
+## Algorithm
+
+### In-Core Path
+
+For each pair of adjacent Z-sections, the algorithm computes the misorientation between voxels across the section boundary. It tests candidate X-Y shifts to find the shift that minimizes the total misorientation between the two sections. All voxel comparisons use direct array indexing with `operator[]`.
+
+### Out-of-Core Path
+
+Reads pairs of adjacent Z-slices into local memory buffers using `copyIntoBuffer()`. All misorientation comparisons for a given slice pair operate entirely on the in-memory buffers. This converts what would otherwise be random cross-slice element access into sequential bulk reads, avoiding chunk thrashing when data is stored on disk in compressed chunks.
+
+### Performance
+
+The OOC optimization matters most for large datasets that exceed available RAM. By reading entire Z-slices in bulk rather than accessing individual voxels across slice boundaries, the algorithm avoids repeatedly decompressing the same disk chunks. For in-memory datasets, the two paths produce identical results with negligible overhead difference.

+## Algorithm
+
+### In-Core Path
+
+Aligns Z-sections by maximizing the mutual information of orientation data between adjacent slices. The algorithm segments each slice into temporary features, bins the orientations, and computes joint and marginal histograms to evaluate mutual information at each candidate shift position. All orientation and feature ID data is accessed through direct array indexing with `operator[]`.
+
+### Out-of-Core Path
+
+Reads the orientation and phase data for each pair of adjacent Z-slices into local memory buffers using `copyIntoBuffer()` before computing histograms. This eliminates per-voxel out-of-core reads during the histogram binning and mutual information calculation, replacing them with two sequential bulk reads per slice pair.
+
+### Performance
+
+The OOC optimization matters most for large datasets that exceed available RAM. Histogram computation requires visiting every voxel in both slices multiple times (once per candidate shift), so eliminating per-element OOC access prevents repeated decompression of the same disk chunks. For in-memory datasets, the two paths produce identical results with negligible overhead difference.

+### Implementation Notes
+
+The filter selects between two implementations at runtime based on how the input arrays are stored.
+
+#### In-Core Path (BadDataNeighborOrientationCheckWorklist)
+
+When all arrays reside in contiguous in-memory storage, the algorithm uses a two-phase worklist approach:
+
+1. **Phase 1 (Initial count)**: A single linear scan counts matching good face-neighbors for every bad voxel, storing the count in a per-voxel array (the neighbor-count array described under *Memory Considerations*).
+2. **Phase 2 (Worklist propagation)**: For each level, a deque is seeded with all bad voxels meeting the threshold. As each voxel is flipped, its still-bad neighbors' counts are incremented. If a neighbor's count now meets the threshold, it is enqueued. This breadth-first flood-fill processes each voxel at most once per level, achieving O(flipped) amortized cost.
+
+#### Out-of-Core Path (BadDataNeighborOrientationCheckScanline)
+
+When any of the quaternion, mask, or phase arrays are backed by chunked (OOC) disk storage, the algorithm uses a 3-slice rolling window over the Z axis:
+
+1. Three Z-slices of quaternions, phases, and mask data are maintained in memory (previous, current, next).
+2. For each bad voxel in the current slice, the count of matching good face-neighbors is recomputed on-the-fly using the rolling window buffers.
+3. If a voxel is flipped, the mask change is written back to the OOC store per-slice via `copyFromBuffer()`.
+4. The window shifts forward one Z-slice at a time, with only one new slice loaded per step.
+
+This approach trades recomputation (no persistent neighbor-count array) for strictly sequential I/O that avoids the random-access chunk thrashing that would occur with the worklist variant's BFS pattern.
+
+#### Performance
+
+The in-core worklist variant is significantly faster for datasets that fit in RAM because each voxel is processed at most once per level (O(flipped) cost vs. O(N * passes) for the scanline variant). The OOC scanline variant is slower in absolute terms but avoids catastrophic performance degradation on disk-backed datasets where the worklist's random access pattern would trigger continuous chunk load/evict cycles. Memory usage is O(N) for the worklist variant vs. O(3 * sliceSize) for the scanline variant.

+## Algorithm
+
+This filter segments voxels into features based on c-axis alignment, targeting hexagonal crystal systems. Voxels whose c-axes (the <001> crystallographic direction) are aligned within a user-defined tolerance are grouped into the same feature.
+
+### In-Core Path
+
+Uses a BFS-style flood fill where seed voxels are compared to their neighbors by computing the c-axis misalignment via direct array access with `operator[]`. Neighbors within tolerance are added to the current feature and queued for further expansion.
+
+### Out-of-Core Path
+
+Adapted to use sequential data access through the `SegmentFeatures` base class OOC support. The base class manages bulk I/O so that the flood-fill algorithm can proceed without triggering per-voxel OOC reads across chunk boundaries.
+
+### Performance
+
+The OOC optimization matters most for large datasets that exceed available RAM. Flood-fill naturally exhibits random access patterns as it grows regions across Z-slices, which can cause severe chunk thrashing with compressed on-disk storage. The OOC path mitigates this by leveraging the base class sequential access strategy. For in-memory datasets, the two paths produce identical results with negligible overhead difference.

+## Algorithm

+For each element, the quaternion orientation is converted to an active rotation matrix (by transposing the passive orientation matrix), which is then applied to the crystallographic c-axis direction <001> to find the c-axis location in the sample reference frame. These rotated c-axis vectors are accumulated per feature using a running average that checks sign consistency (flipping vectors whose dot product with the running average is negative).

+## Algorithm
+
+This filter supports three independent averaging methods that can be enabled in any combination. Each method accumulates per-element quaternion data grouped by feature ID, then produces feature-level outputs.
+
+### In-Core Path
+
+**Rodrigues Average:** Iterates over all elements once, accumulating quaternion sums into a feature-level buffer. For each element, the voxel quaternion is rotated to the nearest symmetry-equivalent orientation of the running average to handle the periodicity of orientation space. After accumulation, each feature's summed quaternion is normalized, forced into the positive hemisphere, and converted to Euler angles.
+
+**Von Mises-Fisher / Watson Average:** A preliminary pass counts elements per feature and maps feature IDs to phases. Then a `ParallelDataAlgorithm` processes features in parallel. For each feature, all element quaternions are collected, reduced to the fundamental zone, and passed to the EbsdLib `DirectionalStats` EM algorithm to estimate the mean orientation (mu) and concentration parameter (kappa).
+
+### Out-of-Core Path
+
+The Rodrigues average reads cell-level arrays (feature IDs, phases, quaternions) in sequential 64K-tuple chunks via `copyIntoBuffer`, accumulating into local `std::vector` buffers that hold only the feature-level data. Crystal structures are cached locally from the tiny ensemble-level array. Final results are bulk-written to the DataStore via `copyFromBuffer`, eliminating random-access overhead on potentially disk-backed stores.
+
+The vMF/Watson path similarly reads cell-level data through the AbstractDataStore API and caches crystal structures locally.
+
+### Performance
+
+The chunked Rodrigues path avoids per-element virtual dispatch on the DataStore, which is critical when cell-level data exceeds available RAM and falls back to HDF5-chunked storage. The feature-level buffers remain in-memory because feature counts are orders of magnitude smaller than cell counts. The vMF/Watson path benefits from parallel feature processing since each feature's EM computation is independent.

Then the distribution is probed at sampling points generated by a golden section spiral on the hemisphere. For each sampling direction, the areas of selected triangles whose normals fall within the plane-inclination radius are summed.

+## Algorithm
+
+For each pixel (x, y) in the output square image, the filter:
+
+1. Performs inverse stereographic projection to obtain a unit-sphere direction representing the boundary-plane normal.
+2. Iterates over all pairs of crystal symmetry operators (nSym x nSym) for the selected Laue class.
+3. For each symmetry pair, computes the symmetrically-equivalent misorientation in both crystal reference frames.
+4. If the equivalent misorientation falls within the fundamental zone (all three Euler angles < pi/2), the corresponding 5D GBCD bin is looked up and the intensity is accumulated.
+5. The pixel intensity is the average GBCD value across all valid symmetry-pair lookups.
+
+Pixels outside the unit circle of the stereographic projection are left at zero intensity.
+
+### In-Core Path (ComputeGBCDPoleFigureDirect)
+
+When the GBCD array resides in contiguous in-memory storage, the algorithm caches the entire GBCD array (all phases) into a local heap buffer, then uses `ParallelData2DAlgorithm` to compute pixel intensities in parallel across the output image grid. The parallel workers access only the cached raw pointer, so no `DataStore` access occurs in the hot loop.
+
+### Out-of-Core Path (ComputeGBCDPoleFigureScanline)
+
+When the GBCD array is backed by chunked (OOC) disk storage, the algorithm caches only the single-phase slice of the GBCD needed for the selected phase of interest. This is the critical optimization: for a typical GBCD, one phase slice is on the order of 100K-500K float64 elements, compared to millions for the full multi-phase array. Once the phase slice is cached, pixel computation proceeds in parallel identically to the in-core path.
+
+### Performance
+
+Both paths use multi-threaded parallel pixel computation. The difference is only in how much GBCD data is loaded into memory: the in-core path loads everything; the OOC path loads only the phase of interest. For single-phase analyses, the performance is nearly identical. For multi-phase datasets stored out-of-core, the OOC path avoids loading irrelevant phase data and reduces memory consumption proportionally to the number of phases.

 The 6/m, -3m, and -3 Laue classes use wider/shifted triangle wedges (so their green/blue corners are different crystal directions), but the apex is always [0001] = red. Each legend image prints the convention it was generated with as a footnote along its bottom edge.
 
+## Algorithm
+
+For each voxel, the filter converts the stored Euler angles (phi1, Phi, phi2) into an orientation matrix, transforms the user-specified reference direction from the sample frame into the crystal frame, and maps the resulting crystal-frame direction to a position on the inverse pole figure triangle for the voxel's Laue symmetry class. That position determines the RGB color.
+
+Voxels that are masked out (bad data), that have an unindexed phase (phase 0), or whose phase ID exceeds the crystal structures ensemble array are colored black (0, 0, 0). If any voxels have out-of-range phase IDs, the filter returns an error with a count of affected voxels.
+
+### In-Core Path (ComputeIPFColorsDirect)
+
+When all arrays reside in contiguous in-memory storage, the algorithm uses `ParallelDataAlgorithm` to split the voxel range across threads. Each thread independently computes IPF colors for its assigned sub-range using direct `AbstractDataStore` access.
+
+### Out-of-Core Path (ComputeIPFColorsScanline)
+
+When any of the Euler-angle, phase, or IPF-color arrays are backed by chunked (OOC) disk storage, the algorithm switches to a sequential chunk-based approach. It processes voxels in fixed-size chunks of 65,536 tuples:
+
+1. Bulk-read Euler angles, phase IDs, and (optionally) the mask for the chunk via `copyIntoBuffer()`.
+2. Compute IPF colors for every tuple in the chunk using the same `LaueOps::generateIPFColor()` logic.
+3. Bulk-write the computed RGB colors back via `copyFromBuffer()`.
+
+This linear access pattern reads each OOC disk chunk at most once, avoiding the random-access chunk thrashing that would occur if the in-core parallel path accessed OOC stores concurrently.
+
+### Performance
+
+The in-core path achieves near-linear multi-threaded speedup. The OOC path is single-threaded but disk-I/O-limited, with throughput determined by sequential read/write bandwidth rather than random-access latency. For datasets that fit in RAM, the in-core path is significantly faster; for datasets that exceed available memory, the OOC path avoids catastrophic slowdowns from virtual memory paging or chunk eviction.

+## Algorithm
+
+For each cell in the ImageGeom, the algorithm examines all cells within a user-specified kernel radius in X, Y, and Z. Only neighbor cells that share the same feature ID as the center cell are included. The crystallographic misorientation angle between the center cell's quaternion and each qualifying neighbor's quaternion is computed using the appropriate LaueOps symmetry operators. The average of these misorientation angles is stored as the KAM value for the center cell.

+All cell-level arrays (phases, feature IDs, quaternions) are accessed through the AbstractDataStore API. The output array is written directly.
+
+### Out-of-Core Path
+
+The algorithm processes data one Z-plane at a time. For each plane, a slab of input data spanning `[plane - kernelZ, plane + kernelZ]` is bulk-read via `copyIntoBuffer`. This slab contains all data needed for neighbor lookups of cells in the current plane. The crystal structures array is cached locally at startup. Output values for each plane are accumulated in a local buffer and bulk-written via `copyFromBuffer`.
+
+### Performance
+
+The slab-based approach is critical for KAM because each cell needs random access to its neighbors within the kernel radius. By reading the entire slab into memory, all neighbor lookups become local memory accesses rather than individual OOC page faults. The slab size is bounded by `(2 * kernelZ + 1) * sliceSize`, which is manageable even for large kernel radii. Sequential plane processing ensures the data is read in order through the volume.

+## Algorithm
+
+For each triangle face in the surface mesh, the algorithm checks whether the two adjacent features are in the same phase with a cubic crystal structure.

+
+### In-Core Path

 While every effort has been made to ensure the correctness of each transformation algorithm, certain situations may arise where the initial precision of the input data is not large enough for the algorithm to calculate an answer that is intuitive. The user should be acutely aware of their input data and if their data may cause these situations to occur. Combinations of Euler angles close to 0, 180 and 360 can cause these issues to be hit. For instance an Euler angle of [180, 56, 360] is symmetrically the same as [180, 56, 0] and due to calculation errors and round off errors converting that Euler angle between representations may not give the numerical answer the user was anticipating but will give a symmetrically equivalent angle.
 
+## Algorithm
+
+The filter converts each element's orientation from the input representation to the output representation using the EbsdLib orientation conversion library. The conversion is performed element-by-element through a chain of intermediate representations as needed (e.g., Euler to Quaternion may go through an orientation matrix). Euler angle inputs are range-checked and clamped before conversion. The computation is parallelized using `ParallelDataAlgorithm` with a macro-generated converter class for each output type.
+
+### In-Core Path
+
+Input and output DataArrays are accessed through the AbstractDataStore API. The parallel converter reads input and writes output directly.
+
+### Out-of-Core Path
+
+Each parallel converter processes its assigned tuple range in 4096-tuple chunks. Within each chunk, input data is bulk-read via `copyIntoBuffer`, the orientation conversion is performed element-by-element on the local buffer, and results are bulk-written via `copyFromBuffer`. This chunked approach is embedded in the `OC_TBB_IMPL` macro that generates all eight converter classes.
+
+### Performance
+
+The chunked I/O within each parallel range avoids per-element virtual dispatch on the DataStore while preserving parallelism across ranges. Since the conversion is purely per-element with no neighbor dependencies, the chunks can be processed independently with excellent scaling.

+## Algorithm
+
+This filter segments EBSD orientation data into crystallographic grains using flood-fill region growing. Voxels are grouped into the same feature if their misorientation is below a user-defined tolerance threshold.
+
+### In-Core Path
+
+Uses a BFS-style flood fill where seed voxels are compared to their neighbors via random array access with `operator[]`. Each neighbor whose misorientation falls within tolerance is added to the current feature and queued for further comparison.
+
+### Out-of-Core Path
+
+Adapted to use sequential data access through the `SegmentFeatures` base class OOC support. The base class manages bulk I/O so that the flood-fill algorithm can proceed without triggering per-voxel OOC reads across chunk boundaries.
+
+### Performance
+
+The OOC optimization matters most for large datasets that exceed available RAM. Flood-fill naturally exhibits random access patterns as it grows regions across Z-slices, which can cause severe chunk thrashing with compressed on-disk storage. The OOC path mitigates this by leveraging the base class sequential access strategy. For in-memory datasets, the two paths produce identical results with negligible overhead difference.

@@ -10,6 +10,22 @@ Reconstruction (Grouping)
 
 This **Filter** groups neighboring **Features** that are in a twin relationship with each other (currently only FCC &sigma; = 3 twins).  The algorithm for grouping the **Features** is analogous to the algorithm for segmenting the **Features** - only the average orientation of the **Features** are used instead of the orientations of the individual **Elements**.  The user can specify a tolerance on both the *axis* and the *angle* that defines the twin relationship (i.e., a tolerance of 1 degree for both tolerances would allow the neighboring **Features** to be grouped if their misorientation was between 59-61 degrees about an axis within 1 degree of <111>, since the Sigma 3 twin relationship is 60 degrees about <111>).
 
+## Algorithm
+
+The algorithm uses a seed-and-grow approach analogous to feature segmentation. A random unassigned feature is selected as a seed and assigned a new parent ID. The seed's contiguous neighbors are examined: if the misorientation between the seed and a neighbor is within tolerance of the Sigma 3 twin relationship (60 degrees about <111>), the neighbor is added to the same parent group. This process repeats for newly grouped features until no more twins are found, then a new seed is selected. After grouping, cell-level parent IDs are assigned by looking up each cell's feature ID in the feature-to-parent map.
+
+### In-Core Path
+
+Feature-level arrays (phases, parent IDs, average quaternions, crystal structures) are accessed through the AbstractDataStore API. The contiguous neighbor list provides adjacency information. Cell-level arrays are written directly.
+
+### Out-of-Core Path
+
+The cell-level parent ID array is initialized in 64K-element chunks via `copyFromBuffer` to avoid a single large fill operation on an OOC store. After the feature grouping phase completes, the feature-to-parent map is cached locally. Cell-level feature IDs are then read in 64K-tuple chunks via `copyIntoBuffer`, translated to parent IDs using the local cache, and the results are bulk-written via `copyFromBuffer`.
+
+### Performance
+
+The feature-level grouping algorithm involves random access to feature arrays (phases, quaternions, parent IDs), but feature counts are small enough (thousands) that this does not cause OOC bottlenecks. The cell-level pass, which touches millions of voxels, uses sequential chunked I/O to avoid per-element OOC overhead.

+## Algorithm
+
+### In-Core Path
+
+For each voxel, the algorithm computes the misorientation with its 6 face-sharing neighbors. If too many neighbors disagree (exceed the misorientation tolerance), the voxel is flagged for cleanup and its attributes are replaced with those of a suitable neighbor. All data access uses direct array indexing with `operator[]`.
+
+### Out-of-Core Path
+
+Uses a 3-slice Z rolling window (previous, current, next) to provide all neighbor access from memory. For each Z-slice processed, the algorithm loads the three relevant slices into local buffers using `copyIntoBuffer()`. After processing a slice, modified data is written back using `copyFromBuffer()`, and the window advances by shifting buffers and reading the next slice. This ensures that all 6-neighbor lookups are serviced from in-memory buffers rather than individual OOC element reads.
+
+### Performance
+
+The OOC optimization matters most for large datasets that exceed available RAM. Because each voxel requires access to neighbors in adjacent Z-slices, naive OOC access would decompress the same chunks repeatedly. The rolling window approach reads each slice at most three times total (as previous, current, and next), converting random access into predictable sequential I/O. For in-memory datasets, the two paths produce identical results with negligible overhead difference.

 /**
- * @brief
+ * @class AlignSectionsMisorientation
+ * @brief Aligns consecutive Z-sections of an EBSD dataset by finding the X-Y
+ * shift that minimizes cross-section crystallographic misorientation.
+ *
+ * For each pair of adjacent Z-slices the algorithm evaluates a 7x7 grid of
+ * candidate X-Y shifts. At each candidate position, voxel pairs between the
+ * two slices are sampled (every 4th voxel in X and Y) and the fraction of
+ * pairs whose misorientation exceeds the user-specified tolerance is computed.
+ * The candidate with the lowest fraction becomes the new grid center, and the
+ * search repeats until convergence (a downhill-simplex-like iterative refinement).
+ *
+ * Misorientation is computed via EbsdLib LaueOps symmetry operators using the
+ * quaternion representation stored in the input data. Only voxels that share
+ * the same crystallographic phase are compared; cross-phase pairs are counted
+ * as misoriented.
+ *
+ * ## Out-of-Core (OOC) Optimization
+ *
+ * When the input quaternion or phase arrays are backed by an out-of-core
+ * (chunked, on-disk) DataStore, the in-core path would trigger thousands of
+ * random chunk decompressions per slice pair because the 7x7 convergence loop
+ * re-reads the same voxels many times. The OOC path (findShiftsOoc) instead:
+ *   1. Pre-loads the topmost Z-slice into a "reference" buffer via bulk
+ *      copyIntoBuffer() -- one contiguous read per array.
+ *   2. For each subsequent slice, bulk-reads the "current" slice into a second
+ *      buffer, then runs the identical convergence logic on the local buffers.
+ *   3. After convergence, swaps the current buffer into the reference slot
+ *      (O(1) std::swap), so the next iteration reuses the data without re-reading.
+ *
+ * This reduces per-slice I/O from O(thousands of random chunk reads) to exactly
+ * 2 sequential bulk reads (phases + quats) plus an optional mask read.

- * @class
+ * @class AlignSectionsMutualInformation
+ * @brief Aligns consecutive Z-sections by maximizing mutual information of
+ * orientation-based feature segmentations between adjacent slices.
+ *
+ * Unlike the misorientation-based alignment which compares individual voxel
+ * orientations, this algorithm first segments each 2D Z-slice into temporary
+ * "features" (groups of voxels whose orientations are within MisorientationTolerance).
+ * It then computes the mutual information between the feature-ID maps of
+ * adjacent slices. Mutual information measures the statistical dependence
+ * between two discrete distributions -- here, the joint probability of
+ * feature-ID pairs vs. their marginal probabilities. Higher mutual information
+ * indicates better alignment because features in neighboring slices overlap
+ * more consistently.
+ *
+ * The shift search uses the same 7x7 iterative-refinement approach as
+ * AlignSectionsMisorientation, but maximizes mutual information instead of
+ * minimizing misorientation count.
+ *
+ * ## Out-of-Core (OOC) Optimization
+ *
+ * The original algorithm stored all per-slice feature IDs in a single
+ * totalPoints-sized array and pre-segmented every slice up front, requiring
+ * the full quaternion, phase, and feature-ID arrays to be resident in memory.
+ * The optimized version uses a rolling 2-slice approach:
+ *   1. Bulk-reads one Z-slice of quaternions, phases, and mask via
+ *      copyIntoBuffer() into local std::vectors.
+ *   2. Flood-fills the slice locally via formFeaturesForSlice() to produce
+ *      a per-slice feature-ID vector (indices 0 to sliceVoxels-1).
+ *   3. Computes mutual information using only the current and reference
+ *      feature-ID vectors.
+ *   4. After convergence, swaps the current feature-ID vector into the
+ *      reference slot (O(1) std::swap) for the next iteration.
+ *
+ * This reduces memory from O(totalVoxels) to O(2 * sliceVoxels) and ensures
+ * each slice's data is read exactly once via a single sequential bulk I/O
+ * operation, eliminating chunk thrashing on OOC DataStores.

+ * @brief OOC-safe bad-voxel flipping using Z-slice rolling window bulk I/O.
+ *
+ * This algorithm uses O(3 * sliceSize) memory for a 3-slice rolling window
+ * (previous, current, next Z-slices) instead of any global per-voxel arrays.
+ * Neighbor counts are recomputed on-the-fly for each bad voxel on every pass,
+ * trading computation for strictly sequential I/O that avoids chunk thrashing.
+ *
+ * **Outer loop** (level from 6 down to NumberOfNeighbors):
+ *   At each level, the required neighbor count to flip a voxel decreases by 1.
+ *   Starting at 6 (all neighbors must agree) and relaxing to the user's threshold
+ *   ensures that high-confidence flips happen first, which in turn enables
+ *   additional flips in subsequent levels (cascade effect).
+ *
+ * **Inner loop** (pass until convergence):
+ *   For each pass at a given level:
+ *   1. Load Z-slices 0 and 1 into the rolling window.
+ *   2. Scan every voxel in the current slice. For each bad voxel, recompute the
+ *      count of matching good face-neighbors using the 3-slice window.
+ *   3. If count >= currentLevel, flip the voxel's mask in the local buffer.
+ *   4. If any flips occurred in the slice, write the updated mask back to the
+ *      OOC store and set the "changed" flag to trigger another pass.
+ *   5. Shift the rolling window forward by one Z-slice.
+ *
+ * Passes repeat until no voxels flip in a full volume scan, then the level decrements.

+ * @class BadDataNeighborOrientationCheckScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core (Scanline) algorithm for the bad-data neighbor orientation check.
+ *
+ * This algorithm is selected by the dispatcher when any of the quaternion, mask, or
+ * phase arrays are backed by chunked (OOC) storage. It avoids random-access patterns
+ * that would cause chunk thrashing by using a 3-slice rolling window over the Z axis.
+ *
+ * **Strategy -- rolling window with on-the-fly neighbor counting**:
+ *
+ * For each "level" (starting at 6, decrementing to NumberOfNeighbors), the algorithm
+ * repeatedly scans the entire volume until no more voxels are flipped:
+ *
+ *   1. Load Z-slices 0 (current) and 1 (next) via bulk copyIntoBuffer() for
+ *      quaternions, phases, and the mask.
+ *   2. For each Z-slice, iterate over every (x, y) in the slice:
+ *      - If the voxel is already good, skip it.
+ *      - Otherwise, check its 6 face-neighbors (4 in-plane from curSlice, 1 from
+ *        prevSlice, 1 from nextSlice) for good voxels with matching orientation.
+ *      - If the count of matching neighbors >= currentLevel, flip the mask to true
+ *        in the local buffer.
+ *   3. If any voxels were flipped in the current Z-slice, write the updated mask
+ *      back to the OOC store via copyFromBuffer().
+ *   4. Shift the rolling window: prev <- cur, cur <- next, and load the next
+ *      Z-slice into the "next" buffer.
+ *
+ * **Key difference from the Worklist variant**: Neighbor counts are recomputed from
+ * scratch for every bad voxel on every pass, because maintaining a persistent global
+ * neighborCount array would require random-access OOC writes whenever a voxel flips.
+ * The rolling-window scan approach trades more computation for strictly sequential I/O.
+ *
+ * **Memory footprint**: O(3 * sliceSize) for the rolling window buffers -- three
+ * Z-slices of quaternions, phases, and mask data. No global per-voxel arrays.
+ *
+ * @see BadDataNeighborOrientationCheckWorklist for the in-core worklist variant.

+ * @brief In-core bad-voxel flipping using two-phase worklist propagation.
+ *
+ * This algorithm exploits random-access O(1) DataArray subscript access (safe for
+ * in-core stores) to achieve O(flipped) amortized cost instead of the O(N * passes)
+ * cost of the Scanline variant's full-volume rescans.
+ *
+ * **Phase 1 -- Initial neighbor counting** (single linear scan, O(N)):
+ *   For every bad voxel, iterate over its 6 face-neighbors. For each good neighbor
+ *   with the same phase and misorientation within tolerance, increment the voxel's
+ *   neighborCount. This produces a baseline count before any flips occur.
+ *
+ * **Phase 2 -- Worklist-driven propagation** (per level, O(flipped)):
+ *   For each level (6 down to NumberOfNeighbors):
+ *     1. Seed a deque with all bad voxels whose neighborCount >= currentLevel.
+ *     2. Pop the front voxel. If it has already been flipped (by a neighbor cascade)
+ *        or its count has dropped below the threshold (impossible in practice but
+ *        checked defensively), skip it.
+ *     3. Flip the voxel's mask to true.
+ *     4. For each still-bad face-neighbor of the newly-flipped voxel: check if the
+ *        neighbor has a matching orientation (same phase, misorientation < tolerance).
+ *        If so, increment its neighborCount. If the count now meets the threshold,
+ *        enqueue the neighbor for processing.
+ *     5. Repeat until the deque drains, then move to the next level.
+ *
+ * This is essentially a breadth-first flood-fill constrained by crystallographic
+ * misorientation. The cascade effect means that flipping one voxel can immediately
+ * enable its neighbors to flip, propagating outward from high-confidence seeds.
+ *
+ * **Why this is not suitable for OOC**: The deque pops voxels in arbitrary spatial
+ * order (BFS wavefront). Each pop accesses the popped voxel's quaternion, phase,
+ * and mask, plus all 6 neighbors' data -- all random-access lookups. On OOC stores,
+ * each such lookup could trigger a disk-chunk load/evict, creating catastrophic
+ * chunk thrashing for large datasets.

+ *
+ * This algorithm is selected by the dispatcher when all relevant arrays reside in
+ * contiguous in-memory DataStores. It operates in two phases:
+ *
+ * **Phase 1 -- Initial neighbor counting** (single linear scan):
+ *   For every bad voxel, count how many of its 6 face-neighbors are good and have
+ *   a crystallographic misorientation within the tolerance. Store this count in a
+ *   per-voxel neighborCount[N] array.
+ *
+ * **Phase 2 -- Worklist-driven propagation** (per level, 6 down to NumberOfNeighbors):
+ *   1. Seed a deque with all bad voxels whose neighborCount >= currentLevel.
+ *   2. Pop the front voxel. If it is still bad and still eligible, flip its mask
+ *      to true.
+ *   3. For each still-bad face-neighbor of the newly-flipped voxel: if the neighbor
+ *      has matching orientation (same phase, misorientation < tolerance), increment
+ *      its neighborCount. If the count now meets the threshold, enqueue the neighbor.
+ *   4. Repeat until the deque is empty, then move to the next level.
+ *
+ * This worklist approach has O(flipped) amortized cost because each voxel is
+ * processed at most once per level, and neighbors are only re-examined when a
+ * neighboring voxel actually flips. In contrast, the Scanline variant must re-scan
+ * the entire volume on every pass.
+ *
+ * **Memory footprint**: O(N) for the neighborCount array (one int32 per voxel) plus
+ * O(worklist size) for the deque.
+ *
+ * **Why this is not suitable for OOC**: The random-access pattern (deque pops voxels
+ * in arbitrary order, then accesses their neighbors) would trigger catastrophic chunk
+ * thrashing on disk-backed stores.

 /**
  * @class CAxisSegmentFeatures
- * @brief This filter segments the Features by grouping neighboring Cells that satisfy the C-axis misalignment tolerance, i.e., have misalignment angle less than the value set by the user.
+ * @brief Segments a hexagonal EBSD dataset into features (grains) based on
+ * c-axis alignment rather than full crystallographic misorientation.
+ *
+ * The c-axis is the [0001] direction in hexagonal crystal systems (HCP metals
+ * like titanium, zirconium, magnesium). Two neighboring voxels are grouped into
+ * the same feature when the angle between their sample-frame c-axis directions
+ * is within MisorientationTolerance. Because the c-axis is bidirectional
+ * (parallel and antiparallel are equivalent), the check accepts both
+ * w <= tolerance and (pi - w) <= tolerance.
+ *
+ * The c-axis direction is obtained by converting each voxel's quaternion
+ * orientation to a 3x3 orientation matrix, transposing it, and multiplying by
+ * the crystal-frame c-axis unit vector [0,0,1] to get the sample-frame direction.
+ *
+ * This filter requires all phases to be hexagonal (Hexagonal_High 6/mmm or
+ * Hexagonal_Low 6/m). A pre-validation pass checks every cell's phase; if
+ * any non-hexagonal phase is found, the filter returns an error.
+ *
+ * ## Connected-Component Labeling
+ *
+ * Identical to EBSDSegmentFeatures: operator() segments the volume with the
+ * base-class connected-component labeling algorithm (SegmentFeatures::executeCCL()),
+ * which processes data one Z-slice at a time to keep memory usage bounded.
+ *
+ * ## Rolling 2-Slot Slice Buffers
+ *
+ * Same architecture as EBSDSegmentFeatures: prepareForSlice() bulk-reads each
+ * Z-slice's quaternion, phase, and mask data into a rolling 2-slot buffer.
+ * The isValidVoxel() and areNeighborsSimilar() methods use the buffer fast path
+ * when the needed slices are loaded, falling back to direct DataStore access
+ * for non-adjacent slice comparisons during periodic boundary merging.
+ *
+ * The pre-validation phase scan also uses OOC-efficient batch reading: phases
+ * are read one Z-slice at a time via copyIntoBuffer() rather than per-element
+ * getValue() calls.

+ *        in the sample reference frame.
+ *
+ * For each voxel belonging to a Feature, the quaternion is converted to an
+ * orientation matrix, transposed (passive to active), and multiplied by the
+ * <001> c-axis direction to obtain the c-axis in the sample frame. A running
+ * average is maintained per Feature with sign flipping to keep the accumulated
+ * directions in the same hemisphere.
+ *
+ * Only Hexagonal-High (6/mmm) and Hexagonal-Low (6/m) Laue classes are
+ * supported; non-hexagonal phases produce NaN output values.
+ *
+ * ## OOC Optimization
+ *
+ * Cell-level arrays (featureIds, phases, quats) are read in chunks of 4096
+ * tuples via `copyIntoBuffer()`. Ensemble-level crystal structures and
+ * feature-level avgCAxes are cached entirely in local `std::vector`s.
+ * The final averaged result is written back to the DataStore in a single
+ * `copyFromBuffer()` call. This eliminates per-element virtual dispatch
+ * overhead that causes severe performance degradation when data is stored
+ * out-of-core in chunked format.

 /**
- * @brief
+ * @class ComputeAvgOrientations
+ * @brief Computes the average orientation of each Feature from its constituent
+ *        voxel quaternions, using one or more averaging methods.
+ *
+ * Three independent methods are available (each can be toggled on/off):
+ *   1. **Rodrigues average** -- running quaternion sum with nearest-quat selection
+ *   2. **Von Mises-Fisher (vMF) average** -- EM-based estimation on the unit quaternion sphere
+ *   3. **Watson average** -- EM-based estimation with antipodal symmetry
+ *
+ * ## OOC Optimization (Rodrigues path)
+ *
+ * The Rodrigues path iterates over every voxel to accumulate quaternion sums
+ * per feature. In the original implementation each voxel accessed cell-level
+ * DataArrays via `operator[]`, which triggers a virtual dispatch per element.
+ * When the DataStore is backed by an out-of-core (OOC) chunked store this
+ * causes a chunk load/evict cycle on every access, making the algorithm
+ * orders of magnitude slower.
+ *
+ * The optimized implementation:
+ *   - Caches ensemble-level crystal structures into a local `std::vector`
+ *     (tiny -- one entry per phase).
+ *   - Accumulates running quaternion averages in a local `std::vector`
+ *     (feature-level -- one quaternion per feature, manageable).
+ *   - Reads cell-level arrays (featureIds, phases, quats) in fixed-size
+ *     chunks of 65536 tuples via `copyIntoBuffer()`, processing each chunk
+ *     from contiguous local memory.
+ *   - Writes feature-level results (avgQuats, avgEuler) back to the
+ *     DataStore in a single `copyFromBuffer()` call.
+ *
+ * This converts O(N) random virtual dispatches into O(N/chunk) bulk I/O
+ * operations, eliminating the OOC performance cliff.

- * @class
+ * @class ComputeGBCD
+ * @brief Computes the five-dimensional Grain Boundary Character Distribution
+ *        (GBCD) for a triangle surface mesh.
+ *
+ * The GBCD represents the relative area of grain boundary for a given
+ * misorientation and boundary normal. Triangles are processed in chunks,
+ * and for each triangle the misorientation bin and boundary normal bin are
+ * determined. The triangle's area is accumulated into the appropriate GBCD
+ * bin. The final distribution is normalized to multiples of random distribution
+ * (MRD).
+ *
+ * ## OOC Optimization
+ *
+ * Several levels of caching eliminate per-element OOC overhead:
+ *   - Feature-level arrays (Euler angles, phases) are cached entirely in
+ *     local vectors via `copyIntoBuffer()` -- these are small (O(features)).
+ *   - Ensemble-level crystal structures are cached locally (tiny).
+ *   - Triangle-level arrays (labels, normals, areas) are read in chunks of
+ *     50000 triangles via `copyIntoBuffer()` before each parallel pass.
+ *   - The GBCD output histogram is accumulated in a local vector and written
+ *     back via `copyFromBuffer()` after normalization.
+ *   - The parallel `CalculateGBCDImpl` worker receives raw pointers into
+ *     the local buffers, achieving zero virtual dispatch in the hot loop.

+ * region of the output pole figure image. For each pixel in the assigned region, the
+ * worker:
+ *
+ *   1. Performs inverse stereographic projection to obtain a unit-sphere direction.
+ *   2. Iterates over all pairs of crystal symmetry operators (O(nSym^2) per pixel).
+ *   3. For each symmetry pair, computes the symmetrically-equivalent misorientation
+ *      in both crystal reference frames.
+ *   4. If the equivalent misorientation falls within the fundamental zone (all three
+ *      Euler angles < pi/2), the corresponding 5D GBCD bin is looked up and accumulated.
+ *   5. The pixel intensity is the average GBCD value across all valid symmetry pairs.
+ *
+ * The GBCD is stored as a 5D histogram with dimensions:
+ *   [misorientation_phi1, cos(misorientation_Phi), misorientation_phi2, boundary_normal_theta, boundary_normal_phi]
+ * multiplied by 2 for the two hemispheres (northern and southern).
+ *
+ * This worker operates on raw float64 pointers to locally-cached data, making it
+ * safe for multi-threaded execution. No OOC DataStore access occurs in the hot loop.

+ * @brief In-core (Direct) algorithm for generating a GBCD stereographic pole figure.
+ *
+ * This algorithm is selected by the dispatcher when the GBCD array resides entirely
+ * in contiguous in-memory storage. It performs the following steps:
+ *
+ *   1. Caches the entire GBCD array, crystal structures, and output pole figure into
+ *      local heap buffers (the GBCD can be large -- millions of float64 elements --
+ *      but fits in RAM when the data is in-core).
+ *   2. For each pixel (x, y) in the output stereographic projection, computes the
+ *      corresponding unit-sphere direction via inverse stereographic projection.
+ *   3. Loops over all pairs of crystal symmetry operators (nSym x nSym) and for each
+ *      pair computes the symmetrically-equivalent misorientation. If the equivalent
+ *      misorientation falls in the fundamental zone (all three Euler angles < pi/2),
+ *      the 5D GBCD bin is looked up and accumulated.
+ *   4. The procedure is repeated in the second crystal reference frame (using the
+ *      transpose of the misorientation matrix) to account for the bicrystal symmetry.
+ *   5. The accumulated sum is averaged over the count of valid symmetry pairs.
+ *   6. Uses ParallelData2DAlgorithm for multi-threaded computation across output pixels.
+ *   7. Writes the final pole figure back to the DataStore via copyFromBuffer().
+ *
+ * @see ComputeGBCDPoleFigureScanline for the OOC-optimized variant.

+ * @class ComputeGBCDPoleFigureImpl
+ * @brief Threaded worker for generating a GBCD stereographic pole figure (Scanline variant).
+ *
+ * This is the same pixel-computation logic as the Direct variant's worker. The only
+ * difference is in how the GBCD data is provided:
+ * - In the Direct variant, m_Gbcd points to the full multi-phase GBCD array, and
+ *   m_PhaseOfInterest is used to offset into the correct phase slice.
+ * - In the Scanline variant, m_Gbcd points to a pre-extracted single-phase slice
+ *   (already offset), and m_PhaseOfInterest is set to 0 so no additional offset
+ *   is applied.
+ *
+ * This shared-worker design means the parallel pixel computation is identical regardless
+ * of whether the GBCD was loaded in full (Direct) or as a single-phase slice (Scanline).
+ *
+ * @see ComputeGBCDPoleFigureScanline::operator()() for the OOC data-loading strategy.

+ * @class ComputeGBCDPoleFigureScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core (Scanline) algorithm for generating a GBCD stereographic pole figure.
+ *
+ * This algorithm is selected by the dispatcher when the GBCD array is backed by
+ * chunked (OOC) storage on disk. The full GBCD array can be very large (millions of
+ * float64 elements across all phases), but for a single pole figure only the bins
+ * belonging to one phase are accessed.
+ *
+ * **OOC optimization**: Instead of caching the entire GBCD array (as the Direct
+ * variant does), this algorithm caches only the single-phase slice of the GBCD via
+ * a single copyIntoBuffer() call. For a typical GBCD with 5D bin resolution, one
+ * phase slice is on the order of hundreds of thousands of float64 elements -- far
+ * smaller than the full multi-phase array. This dramatically reduces the memory
+ * footprint and avoids random-access chunk thrashing across phase boundaries.
+ *
+ * Once the phase slice is cached in a local buffer, the actual pole-figure
+ * computation is identical to the Direct variant and runs multi-threaded using
+ * ParallelData2DAlgorithm on the cached raw pointers.
+ *
+ * **Memory footprint**: O(totalGbcdBins) for one phase, plus O(outputDim^2) for
+ * the pole figure cache. Both are bounded by the GBCD bin resolution, not by the
+ * total number of phases.
+ *
+ * @see ComputeGBCDPoleFigureDirect for the in-core variant that caches the full GBCD.

+ * @class ComputeIPFColorsScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core (Scanline) algorithm for computing Inverse Pole Figure colors.
+ *
+ * This algorithm is selected by the dispatcher when any of the Euler-angle, phase,
+ * or IPF-color arrays are backed by chunked (OOC) storage on disk. It avoids the
+ * random-access pattern of the in-core path, which would trigger expensive
+ * chunk load/evict cycles ("chunk thrashing") when data does not fit in RAM.
+ *
+ * **Strategy**: The algorithm processes voxels in sequential, fixed-size chunks
+ * of k_ChunkTuples (65,536) tuples at a time:
+ *
+ *   1. Bulk-read Euler angles, phase IDs, and (optionally) the mask for the
+ *      current chunk into local heap buffers via copyIntoBuffer().
+ *   2. Compute IPF colors for every voxel in the chunk using the same
+ *      LaueOps::generateIPFColor() logic as the in-core path.
+ *   3. Bulk-write the computed RGB colors back via copyFromBuffer().
+ *
+ * Because OOC stores are chunked contiguously along the tuple dimension, this
+ * linear access pattern reads each disk chunk at most once, achieving throughput
+ * limited only by sequential disk I/O rather than random-access latency.
+ *
+ * **Single-threaded**: The algorithm runs single-threaded because the chunk
+ * buffers are shared state and because OOC disk I/O does not benefit from
+ * multi-threaded access to the same store.
+ *
+ * **Memory footprint**: O(k_ChunkTuples) per array -- roughly 1 MB total for
+ * the default chunk size, regardless of dataset size.
+ *
+ * @see ComputeIPFColorsDirect for the multi-threaded in-core variant.

 /**
- * @class
+ * @class ComputeKernelAvgMisorientations
+ * @brief Computes the Kernel Average Misorientation (KAM) for each voxel in
+ *        an ImageGeom.
+ *
+ * For each voxel, the misorientation angle between the voxel and every
+ * neighbor within the user-specified kernel is calculated (using
+ * crystallographic symmetry operators). The average of these angles is
+ * stored as the KAM value. Only neighbors belonging to the same Feature
+ * (same featureId) are included.
+ *
+ * ## OOC Optimization (Major Rewrite)
+ *
+ * The original implementation used `ParallelData3DAlgorithm` with per-element
+ * `operator[]` access, which causes catastrophic performance with OOC storage
+ * because the kernel neighborhood access pattern triggers random chunk
+ * load/evict cycles.
+ *
+ * The optimized implementation uses a **slab-based** strategy:
+ *   - For each Z-plane, a slab spanning `[plane - kZ, plane + kZ]` is
+ *     bulk-read via `copyIntoBuffer()`. This slab contains all data needed
+ *     for every neighbor lookup of voxels in the current plane.
+ *   - All kernel neighbor accesses index into local contiguous buffers
+ *     (zero virtual dispatch overhead).
+ *   - The output for each plane is bulk-written via `copyFromBuffer()`.
+ *   - Ensemble-level crystal structures are cached in a local vector.
+ *
+ * The slab approach has predictable memory usage proportional to
+ * `(2*kZ + 1) * X * Y` and provides sequential I/O that OOC stores handle
+ * efficiently. Parallelization is deliberately disabled because the slab
+ * I/O pattern already provides good throughput and avoids thread-safety
+ * issues with DataStore access.

 /**
- * @class
+ * @class ComputeTwinBoundaries
+ * @brief Identifies sigma-3 twin boundaries on a triangle surface mesh and
+ *        optionally computes the incoherence angle for each twin boundary.
+ *
+ * For each face on the surface mesh, the average orientations of the two
+ * adjacent Features are compared to the sigma-3 twin misorientation
+ * (60 degrees about <111>). If the misorientation falls within the user-specified
+ * axis and angle tolerances, the face is flagged as a twin boundary. When
+ * coherence computation is enabled, the crystal direction parallel to the face
+ * normal is compared with the misorientation axis to determine the incoherence.
+ *
+ * Only Cubic-High (m3m) and Cubic-Low (m3) Laue classes are considered.
+ *
+ * ## OOC Optimization
+ *
+ * All input arrays are cached entirely in local `std::vector`s before the
+ * parallel computation begins:
+ *   - Feature-level arrays (phases, avgQuats) -- O(features), small.
+ *   - Face-level arrays (faceLabels, faceNormals) -- O(faces), scales with
+ *     surface area not volume, typically manageable.
+ *   - Ensemble-level crystal structures -- tiny.
+ *
+ * The parallel workers (`CalculateTwinBoundaryImpl` and
+ * `CalculateTwinBoundaryWithIncoherenceImpl`) operate exclusively on these
+ * local vectors, achieving zero virtual dispatch overhead in the hot loop.
+ * Results are accumulated in local output vectors and written back to
+ * DataStores via bulk I/O after parallel execution completes.

 /**
- * @brief
+ * @class EBSDSegmentFeatures
+ * @brief Segments an EBSD dataset into crystallographic features (grains)
+ * by grouping contiguous voxels whose orientations are within a
+ * user-specified misorientation tolerance.
+ *
+ * Two neighboring voxels are grouped into the same feature only if they share
+ * the same crystallographic phase and their misorientation -- computed via the
+ * appropriate EbsdLib LaueOps symmetry operator from their quaternion
+ * representations -- is below MisorientationTolerance. The misorientation
+ * calculation accounts for all symmetry-equivalent orientations of the given
+ * Laue class, so that the minimum rotation angle between the two crystal
+ * orientations is used.
+ *
+ * ## Connected-Component Labeling
+ *
+ * operator() segments the volume with the base-class connected-component
+ * labeling algorithm (SegmentFeatures::executeCCL()), which processes data one
+ * Z-slice at a time to keep memory usage bounded. The subclass supplies the
+ * per-voxel comparison logic by overriding isValidVoxel() and
+ * areNeighborsSimilar().
+ *
+ * ## Rolling 2-Slot Slice Buffers
+ *
+ * The CCL algorithm calls isValidVoxel() and areNeighborsSimilar() for every
+ * voxel and its neighbors. On OOC DataStores, each call would trigger a chunk
+ * decompress-read-evict cycle, making the algorithm orders of magnitude slower.
+ *
+ * To avoid this, prepareForSlice() bulk-reads each Z-slice's quaternion, phase,
+ * and mask data into a rolling 2-slot buffer (even slices -> slot 0, odd slices
+ * -> slot 1). Because CCL processes slices sequentially and only compares
+ * adjacent slices, both the current slice (iz) and previous slice (iz-1) are
+ * always resident. The isValidVoxel() and areNeighborsSimilar() methods check
+ * the buffer first (fast path) and fall back to direct DataStore access only
+ * when the needed slice is not buffered (e.g., during periodic boundary merging).
+ *
+ * Additionally, the small ensemble-level crystal structures array is cached
+ * locally in m_CrystalStructuresCache to avoid per-voxel virtual dispatch
+ * through the DataStore.

- * @class
+ * @class NeighborOrientationCorrelation
+ * @brief Corrects low-confidence EBSD voxels by replacing their cell data with
+ * data from the most orientation-correlated face neighbor.
+ *
+ * The algorithm iterates through multiple "cleanup levels" (from 6 down to the
+ * user-specified Level). At each level, every voxel whose confidence index is
+ * below MinConfidence is examined. For that voxel, the 6 face neighbors are
+ * compared pairwise: two neighbors "agree" if they share the same nonzero phase
+ * and their misorientation is within MisorientationTolerance. Each neighbor
+ * accumulates a similarity count (how many other neighbors agree with it). The
+ * neighbor with the highest agreement is chosen as the replacement source.
+ *
+ * ## Z-Slice Buffering (Out-of-Core Optimization)
+ *
+ * To avoid random-access thrashing of out-of-core (OOC) compressed chunk stores,
+ * the algorithm maintains a rolling window of 3 adjacent Z-slices for the
+ * quaternion and phase arrays, plus 1 Z-slice for the confidence index. At each
+ * Z-step, the window advances by swapping buffer slots and reading only the new
+ * z+1 slice. All neighbor lookups then read from these local buffers instead of
+ * the backing DataArray, eliminating repeated chunk decompressions.
+ *
+ * After identifying the best neighbor for every low-confidence voxel in a level,
+ * all cell-level DataArrays (except ignored ones) are updated in parallel using
+ * ParallelTaskAlgorithm, copying tuple data from each best neighbor.

+ * @brief Generates pole figure images from Euler angle data using Lambert or discrete projection.
+ *
+ * Supports multiple output formats (TIFF, BMP, PNG, JPG, PDF), layouts (horizontal,
+ * vertical, square), and optional intensity data output. The projection computation
+ * uses EbsdLib's ModifiedLambertProjection or a discrete stereographic projection.
+ *
+ * @note The OOC changes in this file are limited to type cleanup (size_t -> usize,
+ * float -> float32) and removing an unused include. The algorithm itself operates on
+ * EbsdLib's internal arrays which are always in-memory.

 The user can also decide to remove a *background shift* present in the sample. The process for this is to fit a line to the X and Y shifts along the Z-direction of the sample.  The individual shifts are then modified to make the slope of the fit line be 0.  Effectively, this process is trying to keep the top and bottom section of the sample fixed.  Some combinations of sample geometry and internal features can result in this algorithm introducing a 'shear' in the sample and the *Linear Background Subtraction* will attempt to correct for this.
 
+## Algorithm
+
+The algorithm proceeds in two phases:
+
+1. **Centroid Computation**: For each Z-slice (processed from top to bottom), the centroid of all "good" cells (as defined by the mask array) is computed by averaging the X and Y positions of all masked-in voxels.
+2. **Shift Derivation**: Per-slice X/Y shifts are derived either progressively (each slice aligned to its predecessor) or relative to a single reference slice. Shifts are rounded to integer voxel increments.
+
+The base class then applies the computed shifts by physically reordering voxel data within each Z-slice for all cell-level data arrays.
+
+### Performance
+
+This filter is optimized for out-of-core (OOC) data storage. When the mask array resides on disk in chunked format, the algorithm automatically switches to a bulk I/O path that reads one complete Z-slice of mask data at a time via `copyIntoBuffer()`, rather than accessing each voxel individually. This eliminates the chunk load/evict cycle that would otherwise occur for every voxel, reducing I/O operations from O(total_voxels) to O(num_slices).
+
 ## Optional Output Data
 
 The user can optionally have the shifts that are generated by the filter stored in various DataArrays in a new Attribute Matrix.

+## Algorithm
+
+### The transform
+
+Regardless of how the user specifies the transformation (rotation, scale, translation, or a raw matrix), the filter first converts it into a single homogeneous **4x4 matrix `M`** that maps points from the original coordinate space to the transformed one. Points are stored as `(x, y, z, 1)` column vectors; `M * p` gives the transformed point. Combining multiple transforms (e.g. translate-to-origin → rotate → translate-back) is a matrix multiplication.
+
+From that point on, applying the transform is a two-step procedure: (1) figure out where each output element lives in space, (2) populate its data. How step 2 works depends on whether the target is a **node geometry** or an **image geometry**.
+
+### Node geometries (Vertex, Edge, Triangle, Quad, Tetra, Hex)
+
+Node geometries store **explicit vertex coordinates**. Applying the transform is straightforward: multiply every vertex by `M`. Cell-level arrays (triangle labels, vertex attributes, etc.) are unchanged — the topology and per-element data still apply to the same cell, just at a new position in space.
+
+The filter processes vertices in **16K-vertex chunks** using bulk I/O:
+
+1. `copyIntoBuffer()` reads a chunk of 16,384 vertices (48 KB = 3 floats × 16K × 4 B) from the vertex list into a RAM buffer.
+2. The loop applies `M * p` to each vertex in-buffer.
+3. `copyFromBuffer()` writes the transformed chunk back.
+
+This replaces a per-element `at()` / `setValue()` loop that would thrash HDF5 chunk caches on out-of-core vertex lists. Memory is bounded at 48 KB per worker.
+
+### Image geometries — the re-gridding problem
+
+An **Image Geometry** stores data on a rigid regular grid; there are no explicit vertex coordinates to transform. Instead, the filter must build a **new** grid aligned with the transformed space, then decide — for every output voxel — what value the corresponding input location had. This is called **re-gridding** or **resampling**.
+
+For each output voxel:
+1. Compute the physical coordinate `p_out` of the voxel's center.
+2. Apply the **inverse** transform: `p_in = M^(-1) * p_out`. This is the physical coordinate in the original image.
+3. Look up (or interpolate) the input value at `p_in`.
+
+The user picks one of two strategies for step 3:
+
+- **Nearest Neighbor** — snap `p_in` to the nearest input voxel and copy its value. Fast and preserves sharp labels (e.g. FeatureIds), but has blocky artifacts.
+- **Trilinear Interpolation** — find the 8 input voxels surrounding `p_in` and compute a weighted average based on the fractional position inside that 8-corner cube. Smoother but blurs sharp boundaries.
+
+### Z-slice slab cache (both Image paths)
+
+A naive implementation would read individual source voxels on demand as it walks the output volume. For a tilted rotation, each output slice may pull from dozens of different source Z-slices, blasting the HDF5 chunk cache. The filter avoids this with a **Z-slice slab cache**:
+
+For each output Z-slice `k`:
+1. **Analytically determine the source Z range** by computing the inverse transform of the four XY corners of the output slice. Take the min and max source Z coordinates those corners land in. For trilinear, pad by ±2 slices so all 8 corner neighbors for every interior voxel are guaranteed to be inside the cached range.
+2. **Ensure the slab cache covers that range.** If the current cache is missing some of the needed slices, update it (see the next section).
+3. **Process the full output slice** reading the source only from the RAM slab — no OOC access per voxel.
+4. Write the computed output slice back with a single `copyFromBuffer()`.
+
+The slab cache is a single contiguous buffer holding K consecutive source Z-slices at their logical positions. Reads from the slab are plain `buffer[z_offset * sliceSize + y * dimX + x]` indexing, no virtual dispatch.
+
+### Sliding-window slab updates
+
+When consecutive output slices need source Z ranges that overlap heavily (typical for small or moderate rotations), re-reading the entire slab for each output slice would waste most of the I/O. Instead, the helper `updateSlabCache<T>()` does **incremental updates**:
+
+1. Compute the intersection of the current cached `[cachedZMin, cachedZMax]` and the newly needed `[newZMin, newZMax]` ranges.
+2. If they overlap:
+   - **Shift** the surviving slices inside the buffer via `std::memmove` to their new positions.
+   - **Read** only the slices below the overlap (if the new range extends further back) and above the overlap (if the new range extends further forward). Typically this is 1–2 new slices per output slice for a mild rotation — orders of magnitude less I/O than re-reading the full slab.
+3. If there's no overlap (first iteration, or large jump), fall back to a full slab re-read.
+
+### Intra-slice parallelism
+
+Inside the output slice loop, the inner `for y in [0, outDimY): for x in [0, outDimX):` work is farmed out to threads via `ParallelDataAlgorithm`:
+
+- Each thread processes a contiguous range of Y rows.
+- All threads **share** the slab buffer (read-only for the duration of the compute phase — no thread writes to it).
+- Each thread writes to its own, disjoint Y-row range of a local output slice buffer.
+- `ImageGeom::computeCellIndex()` and `getCoordsf()` are const and thread-safe; `FindOctant()` (used by trilinear) is a pure function.
+- Trilinear's per-voxel `pValues` scratch (8 vertices × numComps) is declared inside the lambda body so each thread gets its own.
+
+No `DataStore` is touched inside the parallel region — I/O is strictly serialized between phases. This sidesteps the well-documented thread-safety limitations of `AbstractDataStore`.
+
+### Putting it all together
+
+For the CT_align rotation case (1472 × 1139 × 1174 uint16 = 1.97 B voxels, tilted rotation), the combination of slab caching, sliding-window updates, and intra-slice parallelism turns an otherwise infeasible operation (>5 min, OOM risk) into a ~20 s operation with peak working memory bounded by the slab size and the output slice buffer (both a few tens of MB).

+## Algorithm
+
+For each voxel in the image geometry, the filter counts how many of its 6 face-connected neighbors (front, back, left, right, up, down) belong to a different feature. The result is an Int8 array where each cell stores a value from 0 (all neighbors are the same feature) to 6 (all neighbors differ).
+
+Two optional behaviors modify the counting:
+
++ **Include Volume Boundary**: When enabled, cells on the outer faces of the image geometry receive additional boundary counts for each face that touches the volume edge. Feature 0 cells on the boundary are excluded from this count.
++ **Ignore Feature Zero**: When enabled, neighbors with Feature ID = 0 are not counted as boundary faces. This is useful when Feature 0 represents background/empty space that should not be treated as a distinct feature.
+
+### In-Core Algorithm (Direct)
+
+The in-core variant iterates all voxels sequentially in Z-Y-X order. For each voxel, it uses pre-computed flat-index offsets to look up the 6 face neighbors directly via operator[] on the FeatureIds DataStore. This is a straightforward approach that works well when all data is resident in memory.
+
+### Out-of-Core Algorithm (Scanline)
+
+When the FeatureIds array is stored out-of-core in chunked format (e.g., loaded from a .dream3d file in OOC mode), the in-core algorithm's random neighbor lookups would trigger chunk load/evict cycles for every voxel, making it extremely slow. The Scanline variant avoids this by reading one complete Z-slice at a time using sequential bulk I/O.
+
+Three in-memory buffers hold adjacent Z-slices simultaneously:
+
++ **prevSlice**: The Z-slice at z-1, needed for -Z neighbor lookups
++ **curSlice**: The Z-slice at z (the slice being processed)
++ **nextSlice**: The Z-slice at z+1, needed for +Z neighbor lookups
+
+Within a Z-slice, X and Y neighbor lookups are simple index arithmetic on the curSlice buffer. After processing a slice, the output is written in a single bulk operation, the window rotates forward, and the next Z-slice is loaded. This guarantees strictly sequential disk I/O.
+
+### Performance
+
+The in-core and out-of-core variants produce identical results. The algorithm dispatch is automatic: in-memory data uses the Direct path, and chunked/OOC data uses the Scanline path. The Scanline variant adds minimal memory overhead (3 Z-slices of int32 plus 1 Z-slice of int8), which is negligible compared to the full volume.

 This filter handles Image Geometries of all dimensions (0D/1D/2D/3D). Thus, it is up to the user to ensure spacing is set inline with intended behavior, specifically for Shared Surface Area List calculation. For more details see the Image Geometry section of the Geometry documentation (currently in the python docs).
 
+## Algorithm
+
+This filter has two algorithm implementations that are automatically selected at runtime based on how the input data is stored. The user does not need to choose between them.
+
+### In-Core Algorithm (Direct)
+
+When all input arrays reside in memory, the **Direct** algorithm is used. It employs compile-time dimension specialization (via C++ templates) to handle 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D image geometries without runtime branching in the inner loops.
+
+Processing is split into two stages:
+
+1. **Boundary cells** (corners, edges, faces): Each voxel's face neighbors are checked with validity guards since boundary voxels do not have all 6 neighbors.
+2. **Internal cells** (3D only): All 6 face neighbors are guaranteed to exist, so no validity checks are needed in the innermost loop.
+
+Surface area accumulation uses per-face area values computed from the geometry spacing, correctly handling non-cubic voxels. This fixes a bug present in DREAM3D 6.5 where all faces were assumed to have the same area.
+
+### Out-of-Core Algorithm (Scanline)
+
+When any input array is backed by chunked on-disk storage (out-of-core), the **Scanline** algorithm is used. Out-of-core data lives in compressed chunks on disk; random per-element access would trigger repeated chunk load/decompress/evict cycles ("chunk thrashing"), making the algorithm catastrophically slow.
+
+The Scanline algorithm avoids this by reading data one Z-slice at a time using bulk I/O, maintaining a rolling window of 3 Z-slices in memory:
+
+- **Previous slice** (z-1): Used for -Z neighbor lookups
+- **Current slice** (z): The slice being processed
+- **Next slice** (z+1): Used for +Z neighbor lookups
+
+Within each slice, +/-X and +/-Y neighbors are resolved by simple index arithmetic on the in-memory buffer. After processing a slice, the buffers rotate (prev gets cur, cur gets next, next loads z+2) and the BoundaryCells output is written back via bulk I/O.
+
+### Performance
+
+The in-core Direct algorithm accesses data through per-element getValue() calls, which are essentially pointer dereferences for in-memory data. The out-of-core Scanline algorithm uses sequential bulk I/O (copyIntoBuffer/copyFromBuffer), reading one Z-slice at a time. Memory usage is bounded to 3 Z-slices of FeatureIds plus 1 Z-slice of BoundaryCells, regardless of the total volume size.

The sizes will be stored within the **Geometry** definition itself, not as a separate **Attribute Array**.
 
+## Algorithm
+
+### What the filter computes
+
+Each **Feature** occupies some number of **Cells** (voxels) in the input grid. The filter produces three arrays indexed by Feature ID:
+
+- **NumElements** — the number of voxels belonging to each feature (int32).
+- **Volume** (or **Area** in 2D) — the physical volume (area) of each feature (float32).
+- **EquivalentDiameter** — the diameter of the sphere (or circle in 2D) that would have the same volume (area) as the feature (float32).
+
+Equivalent spherical diameter `d` is computed from volume `V` using `V = (4π/3)·r³`, giving `d = 2·(V / (4π/3))^(1/3)`. The 2D equivalent circular diameter uses `A = π·r²`, giving `d = 2·(A/π)^(1/2)`.
+
+### Image Geometry path
+
+An **Image Geometry** has uniform voxel spacing, so the volume of every voxel is the same: `V_voxel = dx · dy · dz`. The filter exploits this to skip per-voxel volume computations:
+
+1. **Count voxels per feature.** Stream the per-cell Feature IDs array in 256K-tuple chunks. For each chunk:
+   - Bulk-read the chunk via `copyIntoBuffer()` into a 1 MB RAM buffer.
+   - Loop over the buffer, incrementing `featureVoxelCounts[id]` for each voxel's Feature ID.
+   - The counter array is indexed by feature (thousands of entries, ~8 bytes each) and easily fits in L2 cache, so increments cost a few cycles.
+2. **Compute per-feature outputs** in a single pass over the feature-level arrays:
+   - `NumElements[f] = featureVoxelCounts[f]`
+   - `Volume[f] = featureVoxelCounts[f] * V_voxel`
+   - `EquivalentDiameter[f] = 2·cbrt(Volume[f] / (4π/3))`
+
+A 2D fallback (when any one of the three dimensions equals 1) computes area and **Equivalent Circular Diameter** using `2·sqrt(Area/π)` instead. The filter errors out in preflight if two or more dimensions equal 1, because the intended orientation for the 1D/2D scaling is ambiguous in that case.
+
+### Rectilinear Grid Geometry path
+
+A **Rectilinear Grid** has per-voxel spacing, so cell volumes vary. The filter can't use the uniform-spacing shortcut and must sum each feature's member voxel volumes explicitly:
+
+1. **Cache element sizes** via the geometry's `findElementSizes()` helper (stored as a cell-level array).
+2. **Count voxels and sum volumes in lockstep.** Stream both the Feature IDs array and the element sizes array in 256K-tuple chunks (~2 MB working set total):
+   - Bulk-read matching chunks of Feature IDs and element sizes.
+   - For each voxel in the chunks:
+     - Increment `featureVoxelCounts[id]`.
+     - Accumulate `featureVolumes[id] += elementSize[i]` using **Kahan summation** (tracks per-feature compensator terms to correct floating-point rounding error). Kahan is necessary because summing billions of float32 volumes in native precision would lose low-order bits, especially for large features.
+3. **Compute per-feature outputs** using `featureVolumes[f]` directly (no post-multiplication).
+
+If `Save Element Sizes` is off, the element sizes array created in step 1 is deleted at the end to save memory.
+
+### Why 256K chunks
+
+The voxel-counting pass is I/O-bound on OOC-backed Feature IDs. Each `copyIntoBuffer()` call carries fixed HDF5 chunk-lookup overhead; the compute (a single indexed increment) is memory-bandwidth-bound on a counter that easily fits in L2. On a 2 B-voxel volume, 256 K-tuple chunks reduce the call count from ~30 K (at the old 64 K chunk) to ~7.5 K while keeping per-chunk memory at a bounded 1 MB. Larger chunks yield diminishing returns because they no longer align with any HDF5 chunk shape.
+
+### Memory footprint
+
+Peak working memory:
+
+- `featureVoxelCounts` — `numFeatures × 8 B` (thousands of features → tens of KB).
+- `featureVolumes`, `featureCompensators` — same size (RectGrid only).
+- Feature IDs chunk buffer — 1 MB.
+- Element sizes chunk buffer — 1 MB (RectGrid only).
+
+All feature-level allocations are O(features), which is inherently small (thousands); chunk buffers are O(1) in dataset size. Billion-voxel volumes run without pressure on RAM.
+
 ## Image Geometry Additional Considerations
 
 A typical Image Stack *(an `Image Geometry` that contains 3 dimensions greater than 1)* conceptually consists of a series of 2D images stacked on top of one another to create a 3D object, thus it functions in 3D space as expected. This means it produces **Volumes** and **Equivalent Spherical Diameters**.

+
+### In-Core Algorithm (Direct)
+
+When all input arrays reside in memory, the **Direct** algorithm is used. It accesses array elements via direct per-element operator[] calls, which are optimal for in-memory data (essentially pointer dereferences).
+
+The algorithm performs the standard Voronoi iteration:
+
+1. **Initialize**: Randomly select k data points as initial medoids
+2. **Assign clusters**: For each data point, compute the distance to all k medoids and assign it to the nearest
+3. **Optimize medoids**: For each cluster, find the member that minimizes the total intra-cluster distance
+4. **Repeat** steps 2-3 until medoids stop changing (convergence)
+
+### Out-of-Core Algorithm (Scanline)
+
+When any input array is backed by chunked on-disk storage (out-of-core), the **Scanline** algorithm is used. Out-of-core data lives in compressed chunks on disk; each per-element operator[] access would trigger a chunk load/decompress/evict cycle ("chunk thrashing"), making the iterative algorithm extremely slow.
+
+The Scanline algorithm avoids this with three key optimizations:
+
+- **Medoid caching**: The medoids array is small (k points), so it is cached entirely in a local buffer before each cluster assignment pass, eliminating k * N per-element OOC reads per iteration.
+- **Chunked cluster assignment**: The input data and cluster IDs are read and written in aligned 64K-tuple chunks via bulk I/O (copyIntoBuffer/copyFromBuffer). All distance computations for each chunk are done in memory.
+- **Per-cluster member scanning**: During medoid optimization, cluster member indices are collected by scanning the cluster IDs in chunks. Pairwise distances within each cluster are computed using single-tuple bulk reads. Peak memory is proportional to the largest cluster, not the total data size.
+
+### Performance
+
+The in-core Direct algorithm is faster for in-memory data due to the lower overhead of operator[] access. The out-of-core Scanline algorithm converts random per-element access into sequential bulk I/O, which is essential for data stored on disk in compressed chunks. Both produce identical clustering results.

-## Algorithm Details
+## Algorithm
 
-- First, all the boundary **Cells** are found for each **Feature**. 
-- Next, the surface area for each face that is in contact with a different **Feature** is totalled as long as that neighboring *featureId* is > 0.
-- This number is divided by the volume of each **Feature**, calculated by taking the number of **Cells** of each **Feature** and multiplying by the volume of a **Cell**.
+The filter computes the surface-area-to-volume ratio for each feature in two phases:
+
+**Phase 1 -- Surface area accumulation**: For each voxel in the image geometry, examine its 6 face-connected neighbors. When a neighbor belongs to a different feature (and the neighbor's Feature ID > 0), the area of the shared face is added to the current feature's surface area total. The face area depends on which axis the face is normal to:
+
++ Z-normal faces (shared by +/-Z neighbors): spacing.x * spacing.y
++ Y-normal faces (shared by +/-Y neighbors): spacing.y * spacing.z
++ X-normal faces (shared by +/-X neighbors): spacing.z * spacing.x
+
+**Phase 2 -- Ratio and sphericity**: For each feature, divide the accumulated surface area by the feature's volume (number of cells * voxel volume). If sphericity is requested, it is computed as: sphericity = (pi^(1/3) * (6V)^(2/3)) / SA, where a perfect sphere has sphericity = 1.0.
+
+### In-Core Algorithm (Direct)
+
+The in-core variant iterates all voxels in Z-Y-X order and uses pre-computed flat-index offsets to look up the 6 face neighbors directly via operator[] on the FeatureIds DataStore. Surface area is accumulated into a local vector (since multiple voxels contribute to each feature), and the final ratio is written to the output array.
+
+### Out-of-Core Algorithm (Scanline)
+
+When the FeatureIds array is stored out-of-core in chunked format, the in-core algorithm's scattered neighbor lookups would trigger chunk thrashing. The Scanline variant reads one complete Z-slice at a time using sequential bulk I/O, maintaining a 3-slice rolling window:
+
++ **prevSlice**: Z-slice at z-1, needed for -Z neighbor lookups
++ **curSlice**: Z-slice at z (being processed)
++ **nextSlice**: Z-slice at z+1, needed for +Z neighbor lookups
+
+Within a Z-slice, X and Y neighbors are simple index offsets within curSlice. After the voxel scan, the feature-level NumCells array is also bulk-read into a local cache, the ratio and optional sphericity are computed locally, and the results are bulk-written back. This ensures zero random-access operator[] calls on any OOC DataStore.
+
+### Performance
+
+The in-core and out-of-core variants produce identical results. The algorithm dispatch is automatic based on the storage type of the FeatureIds array.

+A voxel qualifies its feature as a surface feature if:
+
+1. The voxel is located on the outer boundary of the image geometry (x, y, or z is at its minimum or maximum value), **OR**
+2. Any of the voxel's face neighbors has Feature ID = 0 (when **Mark Feature 0 Neighbors** is enabled).
+
+For 2D geometries (where one dimension has size 1), the degenerate dimension is collapsed and only the 4 in-plane neighbors are checked.
+
+### In-Core Algorithm (Direct)
+
+The in-core variant uses separate code paths for 3D and 2D geometries. For 3D, it iterates all voxels in Z-Y-X order and checks 6 face neighbors via operator[] on the FeatureIds DataStore. For 2D, it determines which dimension is degenerate and iterates the non-degenerate plane, checking 4 neighbors. This approach works well when all data is resident in memory.
+
+### Out-of-Core Algorithm (Scanline)
+
+When the FeatureIds array is stored out-of-core in chunked format, the in-core algorithm's random neighbor lookups would trigger chunk load/evict cycles. The Scanline variant reads one complete native Z-slice at a time using sequential bulk I/O, maintaining a 3-slice rolling window (prevSlice, curSlice, nextSlice).
+
+For 3D geometries, the neighbor lookups map directly to the rolling window buffers. For 2D geometries, the algorithm still iterates the native Z-Y-X grid but remaps coordinates to the logical 2D plane:
+
++ **Degenerate Z** (most common): All data fits in a single Z-slice; all 4 neighbors come from curSlice.
++ **Degenerate X or Y**: The remapped-Y direction maps to the native Z axis, so +/-Y neighbors come from the adjacent Z-slice buffers.
+
+The feature-level SurfaceFeatures output is cached in a local vector during processing and bulk-written once at the end, avoiding per-voxel random writes to the OOC store.
+
+### Performance
+
+The in-core and out-of-core variants produce identical results. The algorithm dispatch is automatic based on the storage type of the FeatureIds array. Memory overhead for the Scanline variant is 3 Z-slices of int32 (for the rolling window) plus a small feature-level vector.

 where *O* is the angle between |AB| and |AC|.
 
+## Algorithm
+
+### What the filter computes
+
+Given a triangle with vertices `A`, `B`, `C` in 3D space, its area equals half the magnitude of the cross product of two of its edge vectors:
+
+    area = 0.5 * |(A - B) × (A - C)|
+
+This is a closed-form, per-triangle computation — there is no iteration, no dependence on other triangles, and no geometry-wide state. The only inputs are the three vertex coordinates for each triangle; the output is one `float64` area per triangle.
+
+### Data access pattern
+
+A **Triangle Geometry** stores two cell-level arrays relevant here:
+
+- **Triangle connectivity**: per triangle, three uint64 vertex indices pointing into the vertex list.
+- **Vertex coordinates**: per vertex, three float32s (x, y, z).
+
+For each triangle, the naive implementation issues one triangle-connectivity read plus three random vertex reads — six OOC chunk-cache hits per triangle. At tens of millions of triangles on a CT-scale mesh, that is hundreds of millions of virtual dispatches through the DataStore layer, each with ~50–100 ns of overhead even when the backing chunk is cached. Real-world pipelines spent 20+ seconds inside this filter alone.
+
+### Chunked bulk I/O with span-bounded vertex loads
+
+Filter-generated meshes (QuickSurfaceMesh, SurfaceNets, ExtractInternalSurfaces) create triangles in spatial-locality order, so consecutive triangles tend to reference nearby vertex indices. The filter exploits this with a chunked pipeline:
+
+**For each chunk of 65,536 triangles:**
+
+1. **Bulk-read connectivity** — read all `3 × 65,536` vertex indices for this chunk in one `copyIntoBuffer()` call (~1.5 MB).
+2. **Determine the vertex-index span** — scan the connectivity buffer to find `[minVertIdx, maxVertIdx]`. For spatially-coherent meshes, this span is typically in the tens of thousands, not the millions.
+3. **Bulk-read the vertex-coordinate range** — if `maxVertIdx − minVertIdx + 1 ≤ 16M vertices` (~192 MB cap for float32 xyz), read that entire range of vertex coords into a local buffer in one `copyIntoBuffer()` call.
+4. **Parallel compute** — dispatch the area formula across the chunk's triangles using `ParallelDataAlgorithm`. Threads read from the shared triangle-connectivity and vertex-coordinate RAM buffers (both plain `T[]` / `std::vector<T>`, not `DataStore`) and write to disjoint positions in a local area output buffer. No `DataStore` access inside the parallel region — sidesteps the thread-safety constraint on `AbstractDataStore`.
+5. **Bulk-write areas** — flush this chunk's computed areas in one `copyFromBuffer()` call.
+
+Total I/O cost per chunk: 1 triangle read + 1 vertex-range read + 1 area write = **3 bulk calls per 65K triangles**. A typical 10M-triangle mesh takes ~150 chunks, for ~450 HDF5 chunk operations instead of the naive ~60 M.
+
+### Fallback for pathological meshes
+
+If a chunk's vertex span exceeds 16 M vertices (a corner case — it means the mesh's vertex indexing is extremely scattered), the filter falls back to a **serial per-triangle vertex read** path within that chunk. Each triangle issues 3 small `copyIntoBuffer()` calls, each reading a single vertex's 3 floats. This is slower (roughly the original performance), but it runs serially because the `DataStore` isn't thread-safe for concurrent reads. In practice this fallback is never triggered on filter-produced meshes.
+
+### Memory footprint
+
+Peak working memory per filter invocation:
+
+- Triangle connectivity scratch: 1.5 MB (`k_ChunkTriangles × 3 × sizeof(uint64)`)
+- Area output scratch: 512 KB (`k_ChunkTriangles × sizeof(float64)`)
+- Vertex coordinate scratch: up to ~192 MB (chunk span × 3 × sizeof(float32)), typically a few MB in practice
+
+All bounded, independent of mesh size — the whole mesh is never materialized at once.

 User may note that the way the bounds are determined are affected by the origin and spacing, so be sure to take these into account when supplying coordinate bounds for the crop.
 
+## Algorithm
+
+### What the filter does
+
+Cropping an **Image Geometry** is conceptually a 3D subarray copy. The user supplies an axis-aligned bounding box in voxel (or physical) coordinates, and for every destination voxel `(x, y, z)` in the cropped output, the filter reads the source voxel at `(x + xMin, y + yMin, z + zMin)`. Every **Cell Attribute Array** (FeatureIds, image intensities, orientations, etc.) is copied through the same mapping so the output volume is a self-consistent slice of the input.
+
+In pseudocode:
+
+```
+for each destination voxel (dx, dy, dz):
+    for each cell-level array A:
+        A_out[dx, dy, dz] = A_in[dx + xMin, dy + yMin, dz + zMin]
+```
+
+The challenge is doing this efficiently when `A_in` and `A_out` are backed by **out-of-core (OOC)** storage — HDF5-chunked arrays that live on disk and stream into memory on demand.
+
+### Z-slice-batched bulk I/O
+
+For each cell-level array, the filter processes **K consecutive Z-slices per batch** (`K = 32`) using three steps:
+
+1. **Bulk read** — a single `copyIntoBuffer()` call reads K full source Z-slices (the entire `X * Y * K` slab, not just the crop region) into a contiguous RAM buffer. Reading the full slab is cheaper than reading only the crop region because HDF5 chunks are typically aligned to full X-Y slices.
+
+2. **In-memory extraction** — for each of the K slices in the batch, the filter copies the `[yMin, yMax) × [xMin, xMax)` region row-by-row into a contiguous destination buffer via `std::memcpy`. No disk I/O happens in this step; it operates entirely on RAM slabs.
+
+3. **Bulk write** — a single `copyFromBuffer()` call writes the K cropped destination Z-slices back to the output array.
+
+The outer loop advances by K slices until the full Z range is processed.
+
+### Why this is fast
+
+The filter's peak working memory is bounded by:
+
+```
+K * (srcDimX * srcDimY + cropX * cropY) * numComps * sizeof(T)
+```
+
+This is O(slab), **not** O(volume) — memory stays constant as the dataset grows. For a 1472×1139×1174 uint16 volume with K=32, the source slab is ~86 MB.
+
+Previously, the filter issued one `copyIntoBuffer()`/`copyFromBuffer()` pair per `(z, y)` row — on a 1472×1139×1174 volume, that is roughly 1.7 million I/O call pairs **per cell array**. Each call carries fixed HDF5 chunk-lookup overhead; at that call count the overhead dominates the real I/O. Batching by K collapses the call count by a factor of `K * Y_range`, which in practice is a 100×+ reduction in HDF5 chunk-op overhead.
+
+Multiple cell arrays are cropped concurrently using `ParallelTaskAlgorithm`: one task per array, each task owning its own slab buffers. The per-thread memory is bounded by the slab size above.
+
+### Optional Renumber Features step
+
+When **Renumber Features** is enabled, after the cell-data copy the filter invokes the shared `Sampling::RenumberFeatures` helper to remap **FeatureIds** into a contiguous `1..N` range, then shrinks the **Cell Feature Attribute Matrix** to match. Deep copies of the feature-level arrays (which can include string arrays) are taken before the renumber so the original feature data is not destructively mutated.
+
 ## Renumber Features
 
 It is possible with this **Filter** to fully remove **Features** from the volume, possibly resulting in consistency errors if more **Filters** process the data in the pipeline. If the user selects to *Renumber Features* then the *Feature Ids* array will be adjusted so that all **Features** are continuously numbered starting from 1. The user should decide if they would like their **Features** renumbered or left alone (in the case where the cropped output is being compared to some larger volume).

+## Algorithm
+
+This filter has two algorithm implementations that are automatically selected at runtime based on how the input data is stored. The user does not need to choose between them.
+
+### In-Core Algorithm (Direct)
+
+When all input arrays reside in memory, the **Direct** algorithm is used. It accesses array elements via direct per-element operator[] calls, which are optimal for in-memory data.
+
+The grid-based DBSCAN algorithm proceeds in three phases:
+
+1. **Grid construction**: The input array is scanned to determine coordinate bounds, create a regular grid with cell side length epsilon / sqrt(dimensions), and bin each data point into a grid cell. Bit-packed adjacency tables are built for fast neighbor grid queries.
+2. **Clustering**: Core grid cells (those with >= minPoints) are identified and processed according to the selected parse order. Adjacent grid cells are merged into the same cluster if any pair of points between them has distance < epsilon. Non-core cells are then expanded into nearby clusters.
+3. **Labeling**: Final cluster IDs are written to the output array. Points in unassigned cells become outliers (cluster 0).
+
+### Out-of-Core Algorithm (Scanline)
+
+When any input array is backed by chunked on-disk storage (out-of-core), the **Scanline** algorithm is used. Out-of-core data lives in compressed chunks on disk; per-element operator[] access during the multi-pass grid construction and random-access distance checks would trigger repeated chunk load/decompress/evict cycles.
+
+The Scanline algorithm addresses this with two key modifications:
+
+- **Chunked grid construction**: Instead of per-element operator[] access during the 2-3 passes over the input array (bounds detection, binning, cell filling), the Scanline variant reads data in sequential 64K-tuple chunks via copyIntoBuffer(). This converts millions of per-element random accesses into thousands of sequential bulk reads.
+- **On-demand grid cell reads**: During distance checks between adjacent grid cells (canMerge), the Direct variant randomly indexes into the full input array for every point in both cells. The Scanline variant instead bulk-reads all coordinate data for each grid cell into a local buffer, then performs all pairwise distance computations entirely in memory.
+
+### Performance
+
+The in-core Direct algorithm is faster for in-memory data due to the lower overhead of operator[] access. The out-of-core Scanline algorithm converts random per-element access into sequential bulk I/O, which is essential for data stored on disk in compressed chunks. The clustering and cluster-expansion phases operate on the in-memory grid index in both variants, so their performance is identical. Both produce the same clustering results.

+## Algorithm
+
+This filter performs iterative morphological erosion or dilation on "bad" voxels (cells with FeatureId == 0) within an ImageGeom grid.
+
+### Erosion
+
+For each bad voxel, the algorithm examines its 6 face-connected neighbors and tallies the FeatureIds of any good (non-zero) neighbors. The bad voxel is then assigned the FeatureId that appears most frequently among its good neighbors (a "majority vote"). If there is a tie, one of the tied FeatureIds is chosen. This process shrinks bad-data regions by one cell per iteration.
+
+### Dilation
+
+For each bad voxel, the algorithm examines its 6 face-connected neighbors. Any good neighbor adjacent to the bad voxel has its FeatureId set to 0, effectively growing the bad-data region outward by one cell per iteration.

+## Algorithm
+
+For each voxel on a good/bad boundary (where "good" means FeatureId > 0 and "bad" means FeatureId == 0), the algorithm counts how many of its 6 face-connected neighbors belong to the opposite class. This count is the voxel's **coordination number**.
+
+A high coordination number means a voxel is mostly surrounded by the opposite type and is likely a boundary artifact or noise. For example, a single bad voxel completely surrounded by good voxels has a coordination number of 6.
+
+### Processing Steps
+
+1. For each boundary voxel, compute the coordination number by counting opposite-type face neighbors.
+2. Among those opposite-type neighbors, identify the most common FeatureId.
+3. If the coordination number meets or exceeds the user's threshold, mark the voxel to be replaced by the most common neighbor's data.
+4. After scanning the entire volume, apply all marked replacements.
+
+If **Loop Until Gone** is enabled, the algorithm repeats this process until no voxels exceed the coordination number threshold. Each pass may create new boundary conditions that expose previously acceptable voxels, so multiple passes can be necessary to fully smooth the interface.

+## Algorithm
+
+### What the filter does (conceptually)
+
+A surface mesh generated from a 3D segmented volume contains three kinds of triangles: those on the outer "box" of the volume (exterior faces), those separating two interior features (internal surfaces), and those mixed between the two. Only the internal surfaces carry physically meaningful information about feature-to-feature boundaries. This filter discards the exterior triangles and rebuilds a smaller **Triangle Geometry** containing only triangles whose three vertices all have node-type values inside the user-specified `[minType, maxType]` range.
+
+The output geometry has:
+- A **compact** vertex list (only vertices actually referenced by a kept triangle)
+- A **compact** triangle list (only triangles with all three vertices inside the node-type range)
+- New vertex/triangle indices numbered consecutively starting at 0
+- Re-mapped triangle connectivity pointing at the new vertex indices
+- All selected cell-level arrays (vertex-attached and triangle-attached) copied through the same index remapping
+
+### Preserving ordering
+
+Downstream filters rely on a subtle invariant: triangle *i*'s three fresh vertices (vertices seen for the first time when triangle *i* is encountered in traversal order) receive new vertex indices consecutively. So if triangles 0, 1, 2 each introduce three brand-new vertices, those vertices get new indices 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 respectively — in that exact order. Some downstream operations (e.g. winding-sensitive mesh cleanup) would misbehave if this ordering were not maintained. The filter therefore keeps a **dense per-vertex map** (`vertNewIndex`) of size `8 B × numVerts` to record each vertex's assigned new index. This is unavoidable: the ordering information cannot be reconstructed from a bitmap alone.
+
+### Bitmap + prefix-sum triangle bookkeeping
+
+Triangles, on the other hand, get their new indices in strict source-order (triangle traversal is monotone), so the filter can use a much more compact representation: a **1-bit-per-triangle "keep" bitmap** (`triMask`) plus a **sparse prefix-sum popcount table** (`triPrefixSum`) that records the number of set bits in the bitmap every 4096 triangles. Looking up triangle *i*'s new compact index reduces to `triPrefixSum[i / 4096]` + a popcount over the 4096 bits preceding *i* within the bitmap. This gives O(1) lookup with constant factors measured in tens of popcount instructions — cheap, and uses ~6.4× less memory than a dense 8-byte-per-triangle map.
+
+### Six-pass streaming pipeline
+
+The algorithm streams the full geometry six times, each pass using bounded chunk buffers (65,536 tuples by default) so peak memory stays O(bitmap) + O(vertNewIndex), independent of dataset size apart from those two data structures. The passes are:
+
+1. **Pass 1a — Vertex node-type scan.** Stream the vertex NodeTypes array in 65K-tuple chunks. For each vertex, if its node type is in `[minType, maxType]`, set the corresponding bit in a vertex-acceptability bitmap (`vertOkMask`).
+
+2. **Pass 1b — Triangle scan and vertex index assignment.** Stream the triangle connectivity (3 vertex indices per triangle) in 65K-triangle chunks. A triangle survives if and only if all three of its vertices pass the node-type test (check the bits in `vertOkMask`). For each surviving triangle:
+   - Set the corresponding bit in `triMask`.
+   - For each of the triangle's three vertices, if that vertex hasn't been seen before (sentinel value in `vertNewIndex`), assign the next available new vertex index and store it in `vertNewIndex`.
+   - This is the pass that captures the "contiguous-per-triangle" ordering invariant.
+
+3. **Pass 2 — Build the triangle prefix-sum popcount table.** Walk `triMask` once and compute the sparse `triPrefixSum` table (one entry per 4096 triangles). Total kept-triangle count is a free byproduct.
+
+4. **Pass 3 — Copy kept vertex XYZ coordinates.** Stream the source vertex list in 65K-tuple chunks. For each vertex with a valid new index, write its XYZ coords into the compact output buffer. Because new vertex indices are NOT monotonically increasing in source order (a later source vertex can have an earlier new index), the writes are random on the destination side — but the reads are bulk and sequential.
+
+5. **Pass 4 — Copy kept triangles with vertex indices remapped.** Stream the source triangle connectivity in 65K-triangle chunks. For each kept triangle, rewrite its three vertex indices via `vertNewIndex[vertId]` and append the remapped triple to the output buffer. Because new triangle indices ARE monotonic, both reads and writes are bulk-chunked.
+
+6. **Pass 5 — Copy per-vertex attached arrays.** For each user-selected vertex attribute array, apply the same vertex-index remapping as pass 3.
+
+7. **Pass 6 — Copy per-triangle attached arrays.** For each user-selected face attribute array, apply the same triangle-index remapping as pass 4. Bulk reads and bulk writes throughout.
+
+### Memory footprint
+
+Peak memory is bounded by:
+
+- `vertOkMask`: 1 bit per vertex (1 MB for 8M vertices).
+- `triMask`: 1 bit per triangle (2 MB for 16M triangles).
+- `triPrefixSum`: 1 uint64 per 4096 triangles (tiny).
+- `vertNewIndex`: 8 B per vertex (128 MB for 16M vertices) — the dense dominator.
+- Per-pass chunk buffers: ~1 MB each, released between passes.
+
+On a mesh with hundreds of millions of vertices, `vertNewIndex` dominates. This is the price paid for preserving the contiguous-per-triangle ordering invariant.

+## Algorithm
+
+This filter identifies the largest connected region of "good" voxels (the sample) and marks all other voxels as "bad." Two algorithm paths are available, selected automatically based on the underlying data storage.
+
+### In-Core Path (BFS)
+
+When data resides entirely in memory, a **breadth-first search (BFS)** flood fill is used:
+
+1. Iterate through all voxels and, for each unvisited "good" voxel, start a BFS that explores all 6-connected face neighbors.
+2. Track the largest connected component found — this is identified as the sample.
+3. Set all "good" voxels **not** in the largest component to "bad."
+4. If **Fill Holes** is enabled, run a second BFS pass over "bad" voxels: any connected region of "bad" voxels that does not touch the volume boundary is filled back to "good."
+
+BFS is efficient for in-memory data because the queue-driven traversal has excellent cache locality when all data fits in RAM.
+
+### Out-of-Core Path (CCL)
+
+When any input array uses chunked on-disk storage (out-of-core / OOC), BFS would cause **chunk thrashing** — each random queue-driven access may load and evict entire disk chunks, making the algorithm 100–1000× slower. Instead, a **connected component labeling (CCL)** approach is used:
+
+1. **Scanline labeling**: Iterate voxels sequentially (Z → Y → X), assigning provisional labels to "good" voxels. When two labeled regions are found to be connected (same row or adjacent Z-slice), their labels are merged using a **Union-Find** data structure.
+2. **Global resolution**: Flatten the Union-Find tree so every provisional label maps to its final root label. Count the size of each component.
+3. **Classification**: The largest component is kept as the sample; all other "good" voxels are set to "bad."
+4. **Hole filling** (if enabled): A second CCL pass identifies connected components of "bad" voxels and fills any that do not touch the volume boundary.
+
+The sequential access pattern aligns with OOC chunk layout, reading each chunk at most once.
+
+### Slice-By-Slice Mode
+
+When **Process Data Slice-By-Slice** is enabled, both the in-core and OOC paths use a shared `IdentifySampleSliceBySliceFunctor` that processes individual 2D slices. Since a single 2D slice is small enough to fit in memory, BFS is always safe and efficient for this mode. For the **YZ plane**, a batched read strategy reads each Z-slice once for a batch of X-columns, reducing HDF5 I/O operations by ~10× compared to reading per-column.
+
+### Performance
+
+The CCL path provides 10–100× speedup over BFS for large datasets stored out-of-core. For in-memory datasets, BFS is typically faster due to lower overhead. The dispatch is automatic — no user configuration is needed.

+## Algorithm
+
+This filter has two algorithm implementations that are automatically selected at runtime based on how the input data is stored. The user does not need to choose between them.
+
+### In-Core Algorithm (Direct)
+
+When all input arrays reside in memory, the **Direct** algorithm is used. For each threshold condition, it reads the input array via per-element access and compares every element against the threshold value. The results are stored in a temporary vector, then merged into the output mask using AND/OR logic.
+
+### Out-of-Core Algorithm (Scanline)
+
+When any input array is backed by chunked on-disk storage (out-of-core), the **Scanline** algorithm is used. Out-of-core data lives in compressed chunks on disk; per-element access would trigger repeated chunk load/decompress/evict cycles ("chunk thrashing").
+
+The Scanline algorithm processes data in fixed-size chunks (64K tuples at a time):
+
+1. Read a chunk of the input array via bulk I/O (copyIntoBuffer)
+2. Apply the threshold comparison to produce a chunk-sized result buffer
+3. For the first threshold condition, write results directly to the output mask via bulk I/O
+4. For subsequent conditions, read the current output chunk, merge using AND/OR logic, and write back
+
+This approach replaces the Direct variant's per-element reads with sequential bulk reads, and reduces temporary memory from O(n) to O(64K) per threshold condition.
+
+### Performance
+
+The in-core Direct algorithm is faster for in-memory data. The out-of-core Scanline algorithm converts random per-element access into sequential bulk I/O and reduces peak memory usage. For a dataset with 100 million tuples, the Scanline variant uses approximately 64 KB of temporary memory per threshold condition instead of approximately 100 MB. Both produce identical output.

+## Algorithm
+
+This filter uses a dispatch mechanism to select the optimal algorithm implementation based on the storage type of the input arrays.
+
+### In-Core Algorithm (Direct)
+
+When all input arrays are backed by in-memory storage, the **QuickSurfaceMeshDirect** algorithm is used. This is the original implementation that accesses the FeatureIds array via direct element indexing.
+
+The algorithm proceeds in three phases:
+
+1. **Problem Voxel Correction** (optional): Iteratively examines every 2x2x2 block of voxels to detect diagonal-conflict configurations that would produce non-manifold mesh geometry. Conflicting voxels are randomly reassigned to a neighbor's FeatureId using a seeded RNG for reproducibility. Up to 20 correction iterations are performed.
+
+2. **Node and Triangle Counting**: A single pass over all voxels counts the number of unique mesh vertices (nodes) and boundary triangles. For each voxel, the algorithm checks whether the FeatureId differs from the +X, +Y, and +Z neighbors. Volume boundary faces also produce triangles. A mapping array of size (xP+1) x (yP+1) x (zP+1) assigns sequential vertex IDs to active dual-grid corners.
+
+3. **Mesh Generation**: A second pass writes vertex coordinates, triangle connectivity, face labels, and node types. Face labels ensure the smaller FeatureId is always in component[0], with -1 used for exterior boundary faces. Each vertex is classified by how many features share it (2=interior face, 3=triple line, 4=quad point, +10 for boundary vertices).
+
+### Out-of-Core Algorithm (Scanline)
+
+When any input array uses chunked out-of-core (OOC) storage, the **QuickSurfaceMeshScanline** algorithm is selected automatically. This variant produces identical output but avoids random-access reads that would cause chunk thrashing on disk-backed data stores.
+
+Key optimizations:
+
+- **Z-slice bulk I/O**: FeatureIds are read one Z-slice at a time (xP x yP elements) via `copyIntoBuffer()` instead of per-element reads. At most two adjacent Z-slices are buffered simultaneously.
+
+- **Rolling node-plane buffers**: Instead of the O(volume) node mapping array used by the Direct variant, two node-plane buffers of size O((xP+1) x (yP+1)) each are maintained and swapped after each Z-slice. This reduces memory from O(volume) to O(slice).
+
+- **Buffered output writes**: Triangle connectivity and face labels are accumulated in per-slice buffers and flushed via `copyFromBuffer()`. Vertex coordinates are buffered for all nodes and flushed once at the end.
+
+- **Dirty-flag write-back**: During problem voxel correction, modified Z-slices are tracked with dirty flags and only written back if they were actually changed.
+
+### Performance
+
+The in-core (Direct) variant is fastest for datasets that fit in memory. The out-of-core (Scanline) variant avoids the 100-1000x performance penalty that would occur from chunk thrashing on OOC datasets, at the cost of slightly more complex bookkeeping. Both variants produce bit-identical output.
+

+## Algorithm
+
+This filter iteratively replaces voxel data that fails a user-defined threshold comparison with data from the best-scoring face neighbor.
+
+### Processing Steps
+
+For each pass over the volume:
+
+1. For each voxel, compare its value in the selected array against the threshold using the chosen comparison operator (less-than or greater-than).
+2. If the voxel fails the comparison (e.g., confidence index < 0.1), examine its 6 face-connected neighbors.
+3. Among neighbors that pass the threshold, find the one with the best value (highest for less-than mode, lowest for greater-than mode).
+4. Mark the failing voxel to be replaced by that neighbor's data.
+5. After each Z-slice is scanned, apply all replacements across every array in the Attribute Matrix (not just the comparison array).
+
+If **Loop Until Gone** is enabled, the algorithm repeats until no voxels fail the threshold. Each pass can improve neighbors of previously failing voxels, allowing the cleanup to propagate inward from good-data boundaries.
+
+### Performance
+
+This algorithm is optimized for both in-memory and out-of-core (OOC) data stores. When data resides on disk in chunked format, random voxel access can cause expensive chunk load/evict cycles. The implementation avoids this by:
+
+- **Sequential Z-slice processing**: The volume is scanned one Z-slice at a time, aligning with typical chunk boundaries.
+- **3-slice rolling window**: Three adjacent Z-slices of the comparison array are held in typed memory buffers, allowing face-neighbor value lookups without per-voxel store access.
+- **Immediate per-slice transfer**: Because replacement marks always point to face neighbors (within one Z-slice), each slice can be committed immediately after its scan completes, keeping writes sequential.
+- **O(sliceSize) memory**: A single per-slice mark array replaces a full-volume neighbor array, keeping peak memory proportional to one Z-slice.
+- **Type-dispatched inner loop**: The comparison and transfer logic is templated on the input array's element type, avoiding virtual dispatch overhead in the tight inner loop.

 The **Filter** can be run in a mode where the minimum number of neighbors is applied to a single **Ensemble**.  The user can select to apply the minimum to one specific **Ensemble**.
 
+## Algorithm
+
+### What the filter does (conceptually)
+
+The input is a segmented volume: every **Cell** has a **Feature ID** identifying which **Feature** (grain, particle, phase domain, etc.) it belongs to. Small features — often from noise, bad data, or over-segmentation — are frequently not physically meaningful. This filter removes any feature whose voxel count is below a user-specified threshold and then reassigns those voxels to their neighbors so the volume remains fully labeled.
+
+Running the filter leaves the volume without any sub-threshold features and with no "holes" (no voxels left unlabeled), ready for downstream analysis. Any previously-computed **feature-level** data (centroids, average orientations, neighbor lists) is invalidated by the cleanup and must be recomputed.
+
+### Phase 1 — Mark small features as removed
+
+The filter first walks the **per-feature voxel count** array (an array indexed by Feature ID, typically of length "thousands") and marks any feature with a count below the threshold as inactive. If "Apply Single Phase" is enabled, only features belonging to the selected phase are considered.
+
+Then it scans the full per-cell **Feature IDs** volume in 64K-tuple chunks:
+
+1. Bulk-read one chunk of Feature IDs into RAM (`copyIntoBuffer`).
+2. For each voxel in the chunk, if its feature was marked inactive, overwrite the voxel's Feature ID with `-1` (the "bad voxel" sentinel).
+3. If the chunk contained any modifications, write the chunk back (`copyFromBuffer`); otherwise skip the write.
+
+This replaces a naive per-voxel `setValue(-1)` loop, which would issue one HDF5 chunk-op per voxel on OOC-backed data. Only chunks that actually changed incur a write.
+
+If **every** feature would be removed by the threshold, the filter errors out — this is almost always a sign the user chose the threshold incorrectly.
+
+### Phase 2 — Fill the gaps by majority neighbor vote
+
+After phase 1, every voxel whose feature was too small is sitting at Feature ID `-1`. The filter iteratively relabels these bad voxels by **majority vote among their 6 face-neighbors** (±X, ±Y, ±Z). The voting is done across a series of passes:
+
+1. **Scan pass** — walk the volume in Z-major order using a **rolling 3-slice buffer** (previous, current, and next Z-slices of Feature IDs loaded in RAM). For each bad voxel, tally the Feature IDs of its 6 face-neighbors into a small vote counter indexed by Feature ID. The neighbor whose ID received the most votes is chosen.
+2. Because every neighbor read comes from the 3-slice RAM buffer (not the OOC store), the expensive "chunk thrashing" access pattern is eliminated. At the end of each Z-slice the bottom slice is evicted, a new top slice is loaded, and the buffers slide forward.
+3. Bad voxels that picked a winner (some bad voxels have no valid neighbor, e.g. when they're surrounded by other bad voxels) are recorded into a **sparse parallel list**: one vector of changed voxel global indices, one vector of chosen neighbor global indices. The list grows with the number of bad voxels processed **per iteration**, not with the volume size.
+4. **Transfer phase** — the chosen Feature IDs are written back into the Feature IDs volume, and every other cell-level array (the full set of arrays in the **Cell Attribute Matrix**) has the neighbor's tuple copied into the bad voxel's tuple. This runs one `ChunkedTransferWorker` per cell-level array in parallel via `ParallelTaskAlgorithm`. Each worker:
+   - Allocates a slab buffer sized to its per-array memory budget (64 MB by default) and walks the sorted `changedVoxels` list one Z-batch at a time.
+   - Reads the batch's Z-range **plus a ±1 Z-slice margin** into the slab — the margin guarantees every neighbor index falls inside the loaded slab, even when the neighbor is one Z-slice off from the voxel.
+   - Applies every `(voxel ← neighbor)` copy entirely in-memory on the slab.
+   - Writes back **only the interior** (the margin is never mutated).
+
+   Because each worker owns its own DataArray, the outer parallelism across arrays is safe even though an individual DataStore is not internally thread-safe.
+5. **Iteration** — phase 2 repeats (scan + transfer) until no bad voxels remain. Each iteration shrinks the bad-voxel set.
+
+### Why the rolling buffer matters
+
+Without it, each bad-voxel evaluation would read its 6 neighbors via per-element `getValue()` on the OOC store. For a 2 billion-voxel volume with tens of millions of bad voxels per iteration across several iterations, that is a nine-digit count of chunk load/evict cycles. With the 3-slice buffer, the total chunk-load count drops to roughly the Z dimension per iteration — typically a four-digit count — and all neighbor reads hit RAM.
+
+### Memory footprint
+
+Peak working memory is bounded by:
+
+- A 3-slice Feature IDs buffer during the scan: `3 * Dx * Dy * sizeof(int32)`.
+- Two sparse vectors sized to the per-iteration bad-voxel count (not the full volume).
+- A per-array transfer slab capped at 64 MB per parallel worker.
+
+All three terms are O(slice) or O(iteration bad count), never O(volume). The filter handles billion-voxel volumes without OOM.
+
 ## WARNING: Feature Data Will Become Invalid
 
 By modifying the cell level data, any feature data that was previously computed will most likely be invalid at this point. Filters that compute feature level data should be rerun to ensure accurate final results from your pipeline.

+## Algorithm
+

+
+- **In-core (DFS flood fill)**: The classic depth-first search algorithm described above. Each voxel is visited via element-by-element access through a typed comparator.
+- **Out-of-core (Connected-Component Labeling)**: A slice-by-slice CCL algorithm that processes data Z-slice at a time. This path is activated automatically when the data resides in an out-of-core (OOC) DataStore.
+
+Both paths produce identical segmentation results. After segmentation, the Feature Attribute Matrix is resized, the Active array is initialized, and Feature IDs are optionally randomized.
+
+### Performance
+
+When operating on out-of-core data, the CCL path uses a rolling 2-slot buffer system. Before processing each Z-slice, the algorithm bulk-reads the scalar input and mask arrays for that slice into contiguous in-memory buffers. All voxel comparisons then read from these buffers rather than the underlying disk-backed DataStore, eliminating chunk load/evict cycles. Two buffer slots are maintained simultaneously (current and previous slice) because the CCL algorithm must compare voxels across adjacent slices.
+
+All scalar types are converted to `float64` in the buffer for uniform comparison, so a single comparison code path handles all input data types.

+## Algorithm
+
+This filter uses a dispatch mechanism to select the optimal algorithm implementation based on the storage type of the input arrays.
+
+### In-Core Algorithm (Direct)
+
+When all input arrays are backed by in-memory storage, the **SurfaceNetsDirect** algorithm is used. This delegates to the MMSurfaceNet library, which is a C++ implementation of the Surface Nets algorithm from Frisken (2022).
+
+The algorithm proceeds in six phases:
+
+1. **Build Surface Net**: The MMSurfaceNet library constructs a padded grid (dimX+2, dimY+2, dimZ+2) and classifies every cell by examining its 8 corner labels. Cells where not all corners have the same FeatureId are "surface cells" and receive a mesh vertex at the cell center. This reads the entire FeatureIds array via direct element access.
+
+2. **Smoothing** (optional): Iterative Laplacian-like relaxation moves each vertex toward the average of its face-connected neighbors, clamped to stay within `MaxDistanceFromVoxel` of the cell center. The `RelaxationFactor` controls the blending between current and average position.
+
+3. **Vertex Transformation**: Converts cell-local coordinates (where 0.5 = cell center) to world coordinates using the ImageGeom origin and spacing.
+
+4. **Triangle Counting**: First pass over surface vertices, checking 3 edges per cell (BackBottom, LeftBottom, LeftBack) for feature boundary crossings. Each crossing produces a quad (4 vertices) that becomes 2 triangles.
+
+5. **Triangle Generation**: Second pass that writes triangle connectivity and face labels. Quads are triangulated using the diagonal that minimizes total triangle area, reducing self-intersections.
+
+6. **Winding Repair** (optional): Fixes inconsistent triangle orientations.
+
+### Out-of-Core Algorithm (Scanline)
+
+When any input array uses chunked out-of-core (OOC) storage, the **SurfaceNetsScanline** algorithm is selected automatically. This variant reimplements the entire Surface Nets algorithm without the MMSurfaceNet library, using only O(surface) memory instead of O(volume).
+
+Key optimizations:
+
+- **Z-slice bulk I/O**: FeatureIds are read two Z-slices at a time via `copyIntoBuffer()` with a rolling ping-pong buffer. Each cell's 8 corner labels are resolved from the two buffered slices using a `cornerLabel()` helper.
+
+- **O(surface) cell storage**: Instead of allocating one Cell per padded voxel (the O(volume) MMCellMap), only surface cells are stored in a vector of `VertexInfo` structs plus a hash map for O(1) neighbor lookups. For typical datasets, the surface is O(n^{2/3}) vs O(n) for the full volume.
+
+- **Self-contained smoothing**: The relaxation is performed entirely on the O(surface) vertex data using neighbor lookups through the hash map, without needing the full MMCellMap.
+
+- **Buffered output writes**: All triangle connectivity, face labels, vertex coordinates, and node types are accumulated in local buffers and flushed via `copyFromBuffer()` in bulk.
+
+### Performance
+
+The in-core (Direct) variant is fastest for datasets that fit in memory, leveraging the optimized MMSurfaceNet library. The out-of-core (Scanline) variant avoids the O(volume) memory allocation and per-element reads that would cause chunk thrashing on OOC datasets. For a 500x500x500 dataset with ~1% surface cells, the Scanline variant uses roughly 100x less memory for cell classification. Both variants produce identical output.

+ * The algorithm iterates over Z-slices from top to bottom, computes the weighted
+ * centroid of all "good" cells in each slice (as defined by the mask array), then
+ * derives per-slice X/Y shifts that bring consecutive (or reference-relative)
+ * centroids into alignment. Shifts are rounded to integer voxel increments.
+ *
+ * @section ooc_optimization Out-of-Core Optimization
+ * When the mask array resides in an out-of-core (OOC) DataStore, per-element
+ * MaskCompare::isTrue() calls would trigger a chunk load/evict cycle for every
+ * voxel, making the centroid loop extremely slow. The OOC path (findShiftsOoc)
+ * instead bulk-reads one full Z-slice of mask data at a time via copyIntoBuffer(),
+ * then iterates over the in-memory buffer. This converts O(N) random chunk
+ * accesses into O(Z) sequential bulk reads, where Z is the number of slices.

+ * @section why Why single-pass bucketing replaces the per-feature rescan
+ * The previous implementation looped over each FEATURE and, for every feature, rescanned every cell

+ * a second full rescan again for standard deviation. Since each cell's own feature id is available
+ * directly from the feature-id array, every cell can instead be routed to its own feature's
+ * accumulators in a single scan, reducing the cost to O(numCells) (or O(2 x numCells) when standard
+ * deviation is requested, since the variance calculation needs each feature's mean computed first --
+ * that mean cannot be known until the first pass completes, so it is inherently a second pass rather
+ * than something foldable into the first). Cell-level arrays are read in bounded chunks via
+ * copyIntoBuffer so per-chunk memory stays fixed rather than scaling with the total cell count, which
+ * out-of-core arrays require. The per-feature accumulators themselves scale with numFeatures, which is

+ *
+ * This is the traditional algorithm that uses operator[] to read FeatureIds and write

+ * Z-Y-X order and, for each voxel, checks its 6 face-connected neighbors using
+ * pre-computed index offsets from NeighborUtilities.hpp.
+ *
+ * **When this variant is selected**: DispatchAlgorithm selects this class when all
+ * input arrays are backed by contiguous in-memory DataStore (i.e., not chunked/OOC).
+ * With in-memory data, operator[] is a simple pointer dereference, so random neighbor
+ * lookups are essentially free.
+ *
+ * **Why a separate OOC variant exists**: When FeatureIds is stored out-of-core in
+ * chunked format (e.g., Zarr/HDF5 chunks), every operator[] call may trigger a chunk
+ * load from disk. The 6-neighbor access pattern means up to 7 chunk loads per voxel
+ * (the voxel itself plus its neighbors), which causes catastrophic "chunk thrashing"
+ * and can slow the algorithm by 100-1000x. The Scanline variant avoids this by

+// ComputeBoundaryCellsScanline -- Out-of-Core Algorithm
+//
+// This file implements the OOC-optimized variant of boundary cell counting.
+// The algorithm produces the same output as ComputeBoundaryCellsDirect: for
+// each voxel, an Int8 count of how many of its 6 face neighbors belong to a
+// different feature.
+//
+// KEY DESIGN PRINCIPLE: All data access is strictly sequential by Z-slice.
+// The FeatureIds input is read one Z-slice at a time using copyIntoBuffer(),
+// and the BoundaryCells output is written one Z-slice at a time using
+// copyFromBuffer(). This ensures that chunked/OOC storage backends serve
+// data in large sequential reads rather than random single-element lookups.
+//
+// ROLLING WINDOW APPROACH:
+// To check the -Z and +Z neighbors of a voxel at slice z, we need data from
+// slices z-1 and z+1. Rather than re-reading slices, we maintain 3 buffers:
+//
+//   prevSlice  = FeatureIds for Z-slice (z-1)
+//   curSlice   = FeatureIds for Z-slice (z)    <-- being processed
+//   nextSlice  = FeatureIds for Z-slice (z+1)
+//
+// After processing slice z, we rotate the buffers (via std::swap, which is
+// O(1) for vectors -- just swaps internal pointers) and load slice z+2 into
+// the now-free buffer. This means each Z-slice is read from disk exactly once.
+//
+// Within a Z-slice, the X and Y neighbor lookups use simple index arithmetic
+// on curSlice: +/-1 for X neighbors, +/-dimX for Y neighbors. These are all
+// in the same contiguous buffer, so there is no I/O cost.
+//
+// MEMORY BUDGET: 3 * (dimX * dimY * 4 bytes) for input buffers, plus
+// 1 * (dimX * dimY * 1 byte) for the output buffer. For a 1024x1024 slice,
+// this is ~12.6 MB total -- negligible compared to the full volume.

+ *     - +Z neighbor: read from nextSlice at the same (y, x) position.
+ *     - -Y neighbor: read from curSlice at (sliceIndex - dimX).
+ *     - +Y neighbor: read from curSlice at (sliceIndex + dimX).
+ *     - -X neighbor: read from curSlice at (sliceIndex - 1).
+ *     - +X neighbor: read from curSlice at (sliceIndex + 1).
+ *   - Write the finished output slice to BoundaryCells via copyFromBuffer().
+ *   - Rotate the rolling window: prevSlice <- curSlice <- nextSlice, then

+ * @class ComputeBoundaryCellsScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core (OOC) optimized algorithm for counting boundary cells using a
+ * Z-slice rolling window with sequential bulk I/O.
+ *
+ * **The problem this solves**: When the FeatureIds array is stored out-of-core in
+ * chunked format (e.g., Zarr/HDF5 chunks on disk), each call to operator[] may
+ * trigger a disk read to load the chunk containing that element. The boundary-cell
+ * algorithm needs to access each voxel AND its 6 face neighbors. The +/-Z neighbors
+ * are dimX*dimY elements away in the flat index space, which almost certainly live
+ * in a different chunk. This means up to 3 chunk loads per voxel (current, prev-Z,
+ * next-Z chunks), causing catastrophic "chunk thrashing" that makes the algorithm
+ * 100-1000x slower than in-core execution.
+ *
+ * **How the rolling window solves it**: Instead of random operator[] access, this
+ * algorithm reads one complete Z-slice at a time using copyIntoBuffer(), which
+ * performs a single sequential bulk read per slice. Three std::vector<int32> buffers
+ * hold the previous, current, and next Z-slices simultaneously:
+ *
+ *   - prevSlice: Z-slice at (z-1) -- needed for -Z neighbor lookups
+ *   - curSlice:  Z-slice at (z)   -- the slice being processed
+ *   - nextSlice: Z-slice at (z+1) -- needed for +Z neighbor lookups
+ *
+ * Within a single Z-slice, all X and Y neighbor lookups are simple index arithmetic
+ * on the curSlice buffer (+/-1 for X, +/-dimX for Y). After processing curSlice,
+ * the window shifts: prevSlice <- curSlice, curSlice <- nextSlice, and a new
+ * nextSlice is loaded from disk. The output is similarly written one Z-slice at a
+ * time using copyFromBuffer().
+ *
+ * This guarantees that the entire algorithm reads and writes the FeatureIds and
+ * BoundaryCells arrays in strictly sequential order, with exactly one bulk I/O
+ * operation per Z-slice -- optimal for chunked storage.
+ *
+ * **Memory overhead**: 3 input buffers (prevSlice, curSlice, nextSlice) each of
+ * size dimX * dimY * sizeof(int32), plus 1 output buffer of size dimX * dimY *
+ * sizeof(int8). For a 1000x1000 slice, this is approximately 12 MB total.
+ *
+ * @see ComputeBoundaryCellsDirect for the in-core variant.
+ * @see ComputeBoundaryCells for the dispatcher.

+ *   3. Boundary identification runs entirely on local buffers.
+ *   4. Each ComputeDistanceMapImpl worker receives raw pointers (not DataStore refs),

+ * @brief Computes distance maps from each voxel to the nearest grain boundary,

+ * followed by optional Euclidean distance correction.
+ *
+ * The algorithm first identifies boundary voxels by checking each voxel's 6 face
+ * neighbors for different Feature IDs. Voxels with 2+ distinct neighbors are grain
+ * boundaries, 3+ are triple lines, 4+ are quadruple points. It then propagates

+ *
+ * @section ooc_optimization Out-of-Core Optimization
+ * The original implementation accessed FeatureIds and distance DataStores through
+ * per-element virtual dispatch in multiple passes (boundary identification, iterative
+ * propagation, final distance write-back). For OOC data, this caused severe chunk
+ * thrashing across all passes.
+ *
+ * The optimized implementation:
+ * 1. Bulk-reads the entire FeatureIds array into a local std::vector via
+ *    copyIntoBuffer() at the start of FindDistanceMap().
+ * 2. Bulk-reads each distance store into local buffers after the initial fill(-1).
+ * 3. All boundary identification and distance propagation operates on local buffers.
+ * 4. Each ComputeDistanceMapImpl worker receives raw pointers to the pre-loaded
+ *    buffers instead of DataStore references, eliminating virtual dispatch.
+ * 5. Results are written back via a single copyFromBuffer() call per map.

+ * @brief Computes the centroid of each feature using chunked bulk I/O and Kahan
+ * summation.
+ *
+ * Algorithm:
+ *   1. Read FeatureIds in 64K-tuple chunks via copyIntoBuffer().
+ *   2. For each voxel in the chunk, compute its XYZ voxel-center coordinate from
+ *      the flat index, origin, and spacing (avoiding ImageGeom::getCoords() virtual call).
+ *   3. Accumulate each coordinate component into a Kahan sum keyed by feature ID.
+ *   4. Track per-feature min/max XYZ indices for periodic boundary detection.
+ *   5. Divide accumulated sums by voxel counts to produce centroids.
+ *   6. Write all centroids to the output DataStore in one copyFromBuffer() call.
+ *   7. If IsPeriodic, adjust centroids for features that wrap around geometry bounds.
+ *
+ * OOC optimization rationale:
+ *   The previous implementation used a ParallelDataAlgorithm with per-element
+ *   operator[] access on FeatureIds, plus DataStore-backed accumulation arrays.
+ *   For OOC FeatureIds stores, every operator[] triggered a chunk load. The
+ *   chunked approach reduces chunk operations from O(totalVoxels) to
+ *   O(totalVoxels / 64K), and plain-vector accumulators eliminate virtual dispatch
+ *   entirely for the feature-level bookkeeping.

-     * branch, and ignoring invalid voxel faces inherently as much as possible. This segmentation
-     * also allows for removing a branch in the deepest nested loop in Phase 2.
-     *
-     * Stage 1 has been split into 3 parts, the vertex (corner), edge, and face cells.
-     * Of these parts there are two main logic flows defined by `processFrameCell` and
-     * `processFaceCell`, the main difference between the two being that the "Frame" algorithms
-     * (corner and edge are nearly identical minus one dimension case so they are grouped as "Frame")
-     * checks every face neighbor and validates them, whereas the "Face" algorithm removes the
-     * validation check and cuts down the checked faces to only the valid ones. It should also be
-     * noted that, optimization is being left on the table with the frame section. It could be further
-     * broken down into processing each edge/voxel individually to mirror the optimization done to
-     * faces, but the segmentation done here would make it far less readable and in the greater context
-     * the speed gain is minimal considering they are O(n-2) and O(1) respectively and the greater algorithm
-     * is 0(6(n-2)^3).
-     *

  * @class ComputeFeatureNeighbors
- * @brief This algorithm implements support code for the ComputeFeatureNeighborsFilter
+ * @brief Dispatcher algorithm for computing feature neighbor lists and shared surface areas
+ * on an ImageGeom.
+ *
+ * This class acts as a thin dispatcher that selects between two concrete algorithm
+ * implementations at runtime:
+ *
+ * - **ComputeFeatureNeighborsDirect** (in-core): Uses per-element getValue() access with
+ *   compile-time dimension specialization. Optimal when all arrays reside in memory.
+ *
+ * - **ComputeFeatureNeighborsScanline** (out-of-core / OOC): Uses a Z-slice rolling
+ *   window with bulk copyIntoBuffer()/copyFromBuffer() I/O. Avoids random disk access
+ *   when arrays are backed by chunked on-disk storage (e.g., Zarr/HDF5 chunks).
+ *
+ * The dispatch decision is made by DispatchAlgorithm<Direct, Scanline>() in
+ * AlgorithmDispatch.hpp, which checks whether any input IDataArray uses OOC storage.
+ *
+ * **Why two variants exist**: When data is stored out-of-core in compressed disk chunks,
+ * each random-access getValue() call may trigger a chunk load from disk, use one value,
+ * then evict the chunk. For a 3D image with millions of voxels, this "chunk thrashing"
+ * makes the algorithm 100-1000x slower. The Scanline variant reads entire Z-slices
+ * sequentially, keeping a rolling window of 2-3 slices in memory so that all 6 face
+ * neighbors can be resolved from in-memory buffers.
+ *
+ * @see ComputeFeatureNeighborsDirect

+     * Stage 1: Process Boundary Cells
+     *
+     * The primary goal of Stage 1 is to isolate border cell specific checks out of Phase 2
+     * (the internal cells). This includes flagging the border cells without needing to
+     * branch, and ignoring invalid voxel faces inherently as much as possible. This segmentation
+     * also allows for removing a branch in the deepest nested loop in Phase 2.
+     *
+     * Stage 1 has been split into 3 parts, the vertex (corner), edge, and face cells.
+     * Of these parts there are two main logic flows defined by `processFrameCell` and
+     * `processFaceCell`, the main difference between the two being that the "Frame" algorithms
+     * (corner and edge are nearly identical minus one dimension case so they are grouped as "Frame")
+     * checks every face neighbor and validates them, whereas the "Face" algorithm removes the
+     * validation check and cuts down the checked faces to only the valid ones. It should also be
+     * noted that, optimization is being left on the table with the frame section. It could be further
+     * broken down into processing each edge/voxel individually to mirror the optimization done to
+     * faces, but the segmentation done here would make it far less readable and in the greater context
+     * the speed gain is minimal considering they are O(n-2) and O(1) respectively and the greater algorithm
+     * is 0(6(n-2)^3).
+     *
+     * Note here that discussions were had of adding Kahan Summation for calculating the surface
+     * areas, but was decided against to conserve memory. At least until the issue presents itself
+     * in a real world dataset.

+// ComputeFeatureNeighborsScanline — Out-of-Core (OOC) Algorithm
+//
+// This file implements the out-of-core (Scanline) variant of ComputeFeatureNeighbors.
+// It is selected by DispatchAlgorithm when any input array uses chunked on-disk
+// storage (e.g., ZarrStore / HDF5 chunked store).
+//
+// PROBLEM:
+//   The Direct variant uses per-element getValue() calls. When data is stored
+//   out-of-core in compressed chunks on disk, each getValue() may trigger:
+//     1. Decompress and load the containing chunk from disk
+//     2. Return the single requested value
+//     3. Evict the chunk when the LRU cache fills
+//   For a 3D image with millions of voxels, this "chunk thrashing" makes the
+//   algorithm catastrophically slow (100-1000x slower than in-core).
+//
+// SOLUTION — Z-SLICE ROLLING WINDOW:
+//   Instead of random per-element access, read entire Z-slices sequentially
+//   using copyIntoBuffer() bulk I/O. Maintain a rolling window of 3 slices:
+//     - prevSlice: Z-slice at (z-1), needed for -Z neighbor lookups
+//     - curSlice:  Z-slice at (z),   the slice currently being processed
+//     - nextSlice: Z-slice at (z+1), needed for +Z neighbor lookups
+//
+//   Within each slice, +/-X and +/-Y neighbors are resolved by simple index
+//   arithmetic on the curSlice buffer. After processing a slice, the buffers
+//   rotate: prev <- cur, cur <- next, and the next slice is loaded from disk.
+//
+// MEMORY BUDGET:
+//   3 slices of FeatureIds (int32) + 1 slice of BoundaryCells (int8)
+//   = 3 * (dimX * dimY * 4 bytes) + (dimX * dimY * 1 byte)
+//   For a 500x500 slice, this is ~3.25 MB regardless of how many Z-slices exist.
+//
+// OUTPUT WRITING:
+//   BoundaryCells output is also written one Z-slice at a time via copyFromBuffer(),
+//   maintaining the sequential I/O pattern for the output store as well.
+//
+// FEATURE ID VALIDATION:
+//   Unlike the Direct variant which scans all FeatureIds up front to find the
+//   maximum, the Scanline variant tracks the maximum FeatureId during the main
+//   loop to avoid a separate full-volume OOC scan. The `feature < totalFeatures`
+//   guard prevents out-of-bounds access during processing.

-     * An ImageGeom with 2 "empty" dimensions, such as 5x1x1. In this case the code would
-     * calculate the area/volume (ie distance between points) by only using the valid dimension.
-     * Functionally flattening the problem to 1D. You may think the solution is to explicitly
-     * define the area cases, but there is a caveat of which of the two empty dimensions to
-     * select for the area calculation. An image with 1x1x5 (XYZ) illustrates this problem,
-     * would you select X or Y for the scaling for area calculation? Clearly it has been rotated,
-     * but you lack the orientation information to determine the proper orientation.
-     *
-     * An ImageGeom with 3 "empty" dimensions, ie 1x1x1. This is a semi-ludicrous case since
-     * the value can be derived directly from the spacing, but the issue previously outlined
-     * will present itself once again. You cannot determine the orientation for proper area
-     * calculation.

+ * @class ComputeFeatureSizesDirect
+ * @brief In-core algorithm for computing per-feature volume, equivalent diameter,
+ * and voxel count using parallel, thread-local accumulation.
+ *
+ * This is the in-memory variant. The per-voxel counting (and, for a RectGridGeom,
+ * Kahan volume summation) is parallelized across Z-slices using ParallelDataAlgorithm
+ * with tbb::combinable thread-local accumulators that are reduced after the parallel
+ * region. Each worker reads FeatureIds / element sizes through getValue(), which is a
+ * cheap pointer dereference when the DataStore is a contiguous in-memory buffer.
+ *
+ * **When this variant is selected**: DispatchAlgorithm selects this class when the
+ * FeatureIds array is backed by an in-memory DataStore (the common case). It must not
+ * be used for out-of-core data: concurrent getValue() calls across worker threads are
+ * not safe on chunked stores and would also thrash the chunk cache. The
+ * ComputeFeatureSizesScanline variant handles OOC data with sequential bulk I/O.
+ *
+ * @see ComputeFeatureSizesScanline for the out-of-core variant.
+ * @see ComputeFeatureSizes for the dispatcher.

+ * @class ComputeFeatureSizesScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core (OOC) optimized algorithm for computing per-feature volume,
+ * equivalent diameter, and voxel count using chunked sequential bulk I/O.
+ *
+ * **The problem this solves**: When the FeatureIds array (and, for a RectGridGeom,
+ * the element-sizes array) is stored out-of-core in chunked format, reading it one
+ * voxel at a time through operator[]/getValue() triggers a chunk load/evict cycle on
+ * nearly every access, which is catastrophically slow on multi-billion-voxel volumes.
+ *
+ * **The approach**: FeatureIds (and element sizes for RectGrid) are read in fixed-size
+ * chunks via copyIntoBuffer() and the per-voxel counting / Kahan volume accumulation
+ * runs against the local in-memory buffer. Accumulators are sized to the feature count
+ * (small) rather than the voxel count, so peak working memory is bounded by the chunk
+ * size, not the dataset size. Because copyIntoBuffer() degrades to a plain std::copy
+ * for in-memory DataStores, this variant is also correct (just unnecessary) for in-core
+ * data; the dispatcher only selects it when OOC storage is detected.
+ *
+ * The summation traverses voxels in the same global raster order as the original serial
+ * implementation, so its floating-point results are bit-identical to that baseline.
+ *
+ * @see ComputeFeatureSizesDirect for the in-core (parallel) variant.
+ * @see ComputeFeatureSizes for the dispatcher.

- * @class
+ * @class ComputeKMeans
+ * @brief Dispatcher algorithm for K-Means clustering.
+ *
+ * K-Means is a partitioning clustering algorithm that assigns each data point to the
+ * nearest centroid (the arithmetic mean of its cluster's members), then iteratively
+ * recomputes centroids and reassigns points until the centroids stop moving (convergence).
+ *
+ * This class acts as a thin dispatcher that selects between two concrete implementations:
+ *
+ * - **ComputeKMeansDirect** (in-core): Uses per-element operator[] access for distance
+ *   computation, cluster assignment, and centroid accumulation. Optimal when all arrays
+ *   reside in memory.
+ *
+ * - **ComputeKMeansScanline** (out-of-core / OOC): Uses chunked copyIntoBuffer() /
+ *   copyFromBuffer() bulk I/O to read input data and write cluster assignments in
+ *   fixed-size chunks (64K tuples), avoiding per-element OOC access on each convergence
+ *   iteration.
+ *
+ * The dispatch decision is made by DispatchAlgorithm<Direct, Scanline>() in
+ * AlgorithmDispatch.hpp, which checks whether any input IDataArray uses OOC storage.
+ *
+ * **Why two variants exist**: Each convergence iteration performs two full passes over
+ * the input array — findClusters (nearest-centroid assignment) and findMeans (per-cluster
+ * sum/count accumulation, further multiplied by the number of components since the
+ * in-core algorithm rescans the array once per component). When data is stored
+ * out-of-core, per-element operator[] access on each of these passes triggers a chunk
+ * load/evict cycle. The Scanline variant streams the input array in bounded chunks for
+ * both passes, converting random per-element access into sequential bulk reads.
+ *
+ * @see ComputeKMeansDirect

+// ComputeKMeansScanline — Out-of-Core (OOC) Algorithm
+//
+// This file implements the out-of-core (Scanline) variant of ComputeKMeans.
+// It is selected by DispatchAlgorithm when any input array uses chunked on-disk
+// storage (e.g., ZarrStore / HDF5 chunked store).
+//
+// PROBLEM:
+//   K-Means requires repeated passes over the input data on every convergence
+//   iteration:
+//     - findClusters: reads all N tuples to compute distances to k centroids
+//     - findMeans:    reads all N tuples once PER COMPONENT to accumulate
+//                      per-cluster sums and counts (dims full rescans)
+//   With OOC storage, each operator[] access may load an entire chunk from disk,
+//   use one value, then evict it. Over millions of tuples, multiple components,
+//   and multiple convergence iterations, this chunk thrashing makes the algorithm
+//   catastrophically slow.
+//
+// SOLUTION — CHUNKED BULK I/O:
+//   Instead of per-element random access, read data in sequential 64K-tuple chunks
+//   using copyIntoBuffer(). This aligns with OOC chunk boundaries and amortizes
+//   the cost of disk I/O across thousands of elements per read. findMeans is
+//   additionally restructured into a SINGLE pass that accumulates all components
+//   simultaneously, eliminating the Direct algorithm's dims-many full rescans.
+//
+// KEY OOC OPTIMIZATIONS:
+//   1. Centroid cache: The means array is tiny (k * numComponents), so it is
+//      cached entirely in a local buffer before each findClusters pass, and
+//      snapshotted via copyIntoBuffer() for the before/after convergence check
+//      instead of per-element operator[] reads.
+//   2. Chunked assignment: Input data and featureIds are read/written in aligned
+//      64K-tuple chunks during findClusters. All distance computations for each
+//      chunk are done in memory before writing the updated featureIds back.
+//   3. Single-pass accumulation: findMeans accumulates per-cluster sums (in the
+//      clustering array's own element type, matching the Direct algorithm's
+//      accumulator precision exactly) and counts for ALL components while
+//      streaming the input array and featureIds once, instead of once per
+//      component. Per-accumulator floating-point results are unaffected because
+//      each accumulator still receives its increments in the same
+//      increasing-tuple-index order as the Direct variant.

+ * @class ComputeKMeansScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core algorithm for K-Means clustering using chunked bulk I/O.
+ *
+ * Uses copyIntoBuffer()/copyFromBuffer() to read input data and write cluster
+ * assignments in fixed-size chunks (64K tuples), avoiding random per-element
+ * OOC access that would cause chunk thrashing.
+ *
+ * Key OOC optimizations over the Direct variant:
+ *
+ * - **Centroid initialization**: Uses copyIntoBuffer()/copyFromBuffer() per-tuple
+ *   instead of operator[] to read initial centroid values.
+ *
+ * - **Cluster assignment (findClusters)**: Caches all centroids in a local vector
+ *   (small: k * numComponents), then processes the input array and featureIds
+ *   in aligned 64K-tuple chunks via bulk I/O. Each chunk is read once, all
+ *   distance computations for that chunk are done in memory, then featureIds
+ *   are written back in one bulk operation.
+ *
+ * - **Centroid recomputation (findMeans)**: Accumulates per-cluster sums and
+ *   counts for ALL components in a single chunked pass over the input array,
+ *   instead of the Direct algorithm's dims-many independent full-array rescans.
+ *   Per-accumulator floating-point sums are unaffected by this restructuring
+ *   because each accumulator still receives its increments in the same
+ *   increasing-tuple-index order as the Direct variant — only the traversal
+ *   interleaving of unrelated accumulators changes, which floating-point
+ *   addition is indifferent to.
+ *
+ * - **Convergence check**: Reads the (tiny) means array via copyIntoBuffer()
+ *   instead of operator[] to capture before/after snapshots for the mean-shift
+ *   comparison, preserving the Direct algorithm's exact flat-index read.
+ *
+ * Selected by DispatchAlgorithm when any input array is backed by out-of-core storage.
+ *
+ * @see ComputeKMeansDirect for the in-core-optimized alternative.
+ * @see AlgorithmDispatch.hpp for the dispatch mechanism that selects between them.

- * @class
+ * @class ComputeKMedoids
+ * @brief Dispatcher algorithm for K-Medoids clustering.
+ *
+ * K-Medoids is a partitioning clustering algorithm that assigns each data point to the
+ * nearest medoid (an actual data point that minimizes intra-cluster distance), then
+ * iteratively updates medoids until convergence.
+ *
+ * This class acts as a thin dispatcher that selects between two concrete implementations:
+ *
+ * - **ComputeKMedoidsDirect** (in-core): Uses per-element operator[] access for distance
+ *   computation and cluster assignment. Optimal when all arrays reside in memory.
+ *
+ * - **ComputeKMedoidsScanline** (out-of-core / OOC): Uses chunked copyIntoBuffer() /
+ *   copyFromBuffer() bulk I/O to read input data and write cluster assignments in
+ *   fixed-size chunks (64K tuples), avoiding random per-element OOC access.
+ *
+ * The dispatch decision is made by DispatchAlgorithm<Direct, Scanline>() in
+ * AlgorithmDispatch.hpp, which checks whether any input IDataArray uses OOC storage.
+ *
+ * **Why two variants exist**: K-Medoids requires computing pairwise distances between
+ * data points and medoids. When data is stored out-of-core, each operator[] access may
+ * trigger a chunk load/evict cycle. The Scanline variant caches medoids locally and
+ * processes the input array in sequential 64K-tuple chunks, converting random access
+ * into sequential bulk reads.

+// ComputeKMedoidsDirect — In-Core Algorithm
+//
+// This file implements the in-core (Direct) variant of ComputeKMedoids.
+// It is selected by DispatchAlgorithm when all input arrays reside in memory.
+//
+// ALGORITHM OVERVIEW (Voronoi Iteration / PAM):
+//   1. Randomly select k initial medoids from masked data points
+//   2. Assign each point to the nearest medoid (findClusters)
+//   3. For each cluster, find the member that minimizes total intra-cluster
+//      distance — this becomes the new medoid (optimizeClusters)
+//   4. Repeat steps 2-3 until medoids stop changing (convergence)
+//
+// DATA ACCESS PATTERN:
+//   Uses operator[] for per-element random access to the input array, medoids
+//   array, and featureIds array. This is optimal for in-memory DataStore where
+//   operator[] is essentially a pointer dereference. For out-of-core data, this
+//   pattern would cause chunk thrashing — see ComputeKMedoidsScanline instead.
+//
+// COMPLEXITY:
+//   findClusters:     O(n * k * d) per iteration
+//   optimizeClusters: O(k * n_i^2 * d) per iteration, where n_i is cluster size
+//   Total:            O(iter * (n*k*d + k*n_i^2*d))

+// ComputeKMedoidsScanline — Out-of-Core (OOC) Algorithm
+//
+// This file implements the out-of-core (Scanline) variant of ComputeKMedoids.
+// It is selected by DispatchAlgorithm when any input array uses chunked on-disk
+// storage (e.g., ZarrStore / HDF5 chunked store).
+//
+// PROBLEM:
+//   K-Medoids requires repeated passes over the input data:
+//     - findClusters:     reads all N tuples to compute distances to k medoids
+//     - optimizeClusters: reads cluster members pairwise to find optimal medoids
+//   With OOC storage, each operator[] access may load an entire chunk from disk,
+//   use one value, then evict it. Over millions of tuples and multiple iterations,
+//   this chunk thrashing makes the algorithm catastrophically slow.
+//
+// SOLUTION — CHUNKED BULK I/O:
+//   Instead of per-element random access, read data in sequential 64K-tuple chunks
+//   using copyIntoBuffer(). This aligns with OOC chunk boundaries and amortizes
+//   the cost of disk I/O across thousands of elements per read.
+//
+// KEY OOC OPTIMIZATIONS:
+//   1. Medoid cache: The medoids array is tiny (k * numComponents), so it is cached
+//      entirely in a local std::vector before each findClusters pass.
+//   2. Chunked assignment: Input data and featureIds are read/written in aligned
+//      64K-tuple chunks. All distance computations for each chunk are done in
+//      memory before writing the updated featureIds back.
+//   3. Per-cluster member scanning: optimizeClusters scans featureIds in chunks
+//      to build a member index list for one cluster at a time, keeping peak
+//      memory at O(max_cluster_size) instead of O(n).
+//   4. Per-tuple reads for pairwise distances: Each candidate medoid and comparison
+//      member is read via single-tuple copyIntoBuffer() calls. While this is still
+//      O(n_i^2) reads per cluster, each read is a known-location bulk I/O call
+//      rather than a virtual operator[] dispatch, and the grid of reads is bounded
+//      by cluster size rather than total array size.

+ * @brief Out-of-core algorithm for K-Medoids clustering using chunked bulk I/O.
+ *
+ * Uses copyIntoBuffer()/copyFromBuffer() to read input data and write cluster
+ * assignments in fixed-size chunks (64K tuples), avoiding random per-element
+ * OOC access that would cause chunk thrashing.
+ *
+ * Key OOC optimizations over the Direct variant:
+ *
+ * - **Medoid initialization**: Uses copyIntoBuffer()/copyFromBuffer() per-tuple
+ *   instead of operator[] to read initial medoid values.
+ *
+ * - **Cluster assignment (findClusters)**: Caches all medoids in a local vector
+ *   (small: k * numComponents), then processes the input array and featureIds
+ *   in aligned 64K-tuple chunks via bulk I/O. Each chunk is read once, all
+ *   distance computations for that chunk are done in memory, then featureIds
+ *   are written back in one bulk operation.
+ *
+ * - **Medoid optimization (optimizeClusters)**: Processes one cluster at a time.
+ *   Scans featureIds in chunks to build a member index list, then computes
+ *   pairwise distances using per-tuple copyIntoBuffer() reads. Peak memory is
+ *   O(max_cluster_size), not O(n).
+ *
+ * Selected by DispatchAlgorithm when any input array is backed by out-of-core storage.
+ *
+ * @see ComputeKMedoidsDirect for the in-core-optimized alternative.
+ * @see AlgorithmDispatch.hpp for the dispatch mechanism that selects between them.

+ * @class ComputeSurfaceAreaToVolumeDirect
+ * @brief In-core (direct memory access) algorithm for computing per-feature surface area,
+ * volume, surface-area-to-volume ratio, and optional sphericity.
+ *
+ * This is the traditional algorithm that uses operator[] to read FeatureIds directly
+ * through the DataStore abstraction. It iterates all voxels in Z-Y-X order and, for
+ * each voxel, checks its 6 face neighbors using pre-computed index offsets. When a
+ * neighbor belongs to a different feature, the area of the shared face (determined by
+ * the voxel spacing along each axis) is added to the current feature's surface-area
+ * accumulator. After the full-volume scan, the ratio and optional sphericity are
+ * computed per feature.
+ *
+ * **When this variant is selected**: DispatchAlgorithm selects this class when all
+ * input arrays are backed by contiguous in-memory DataStore. With in-memory data,
+ * the neighbor lookups via flat-index offsets are simple pointer arithmetic.
+ *
+ * **Why a separate OOC variant exists**: The 6-neighbor lookup pattern accesses
+ * elements at offsets of +/-1, +/-dimX, and +/-(dimX*dimY) from the current voxel.
+ * When FeatureIds is stored out-of-core in chunked format, these scattered accesses
+ * cause chunk thrashing. The Scanline variant reads entire Z-slices sequentially
+ * with copyIntoBuffer() to avoid this.
+ *
+ * **Output details**: The per-feature surface-area accumulation uses a local
+ * std::vector<float32> (not the output DataStore) because multiple voxels
+ * contribute to the same feature's surface area. After the scan, the SA/V ratio
+ * is computed and written to the output array. Sphericity (if requested) uses
+ * the formula: sphericity = (pi^(1/3) * (6V)^(2/3)) / SA.

+//
+// Computes the surface-area-to-volume ratio (and optional sphericity) for each
+// feature in an image geometry. Produces identical results to the Direct variant
+// but uses a 3-slice rolling window for sequential bulk I/O.
+//
+// KEY DESIGN PRINCIPLE: ALL array access uses bulk I/O (copyIntoBuffer /
+// copyFromBuffer). There are zero operator[] calls on any DataStore.
+//
+// The algorithm has three phases:
+//
+// Phase 1 -- Surface area accumulation via Z-slice rolling window:
+//   Three std::vector<int32> buffers (prevSlice, curSlice, nextSlice) hold
+//   adjacent Z-slices of FeatureIds. For each voxel in curSlice, the 6
+//   neighbors are checked using these buffers:
+//     - -Z / +Z: prevSlice[inSlice] / nextSlice[inSlice]
+//     - -Y / +Y: curSlice[inSlice - xPoints] / curSlice[inSlice + xPoints]
+//     - -X / +X: curSlice[inSlice - 1] / curSlice[inSlice + 1]
+//   Shared face areas are accumulated into a local std::vector<float32>.
+//
+// Phase 2 -- Ratio computation with local caches:
+//   The feature-level NumCells array is bulk-read into a local vector, the

+ *
+ * **Phase 1 -- Surface area accumulation**:
+ *   - Initialize the rolling window by loading Z-slices 0 and 1.
+ *   - For each Z-slice, iterate all voxels in Y-X order within curSlice.
+ *   - For each voxel with FeatureId > 0, check 6 face neighbors:

+ *     - -X: curSlice[inSlice - 1], +X: curSlice[inSlice + 1]
+ *   - When a neighbor differs, add the appropriate face area.
+ *   - After each Z-slice, rotate buffers and load the next slice.
+ *
+ * **Phase 2 -- Ratio computation**:
+ *   - Bulk-read the feature-level NumCells array into a local vector.
+ *   - Compute SA/V = featureSurfaceArea[i] / (voxelVol * numCells[i]).
+ *   - Bulk-write the ratio array back to the OOC store.

+ * @class ComputeSurfaceAreaToVolumeScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core (OOC) optimized algorithm for computing surface-area-to-volume
+ * ratio and optional sphericity using Z-slice sequential bulk I/O with a 3-slice
+ * rolling window.
+ *
+ * **The problem this solves**: When the FeatureIds array is stored out-of-core in
+ * chunked format, the Direct variant's operator[] access to check 6 face neighbors
+ * triggers chunk thrashing. Each voxel requires reading up to 7 different locations
+ * (itself + 6 neighbors), and the +/-Z neighbors are dimX*dimY elements apart in
+ * flat index space, almost certainly spanning different chunks.
+ *
+ * **How the rolling window solves it**: This variant reads the FeatureIds array one
+ * native Z-slice at a time using copyIntoBuffer(), maintaining three in-memory
+ * buffers (prevSlice, curSlice, nextSlice). All neighbor lookups are performed on
+ * these buffers:
+ *   - X and Y neighbors: index arithmetic within curSlice (+/-1 and +/-dimX).
+ *   - Z neighbors: same position in prevSlice (-Z) or nextSlice (+Z).
+ *
+ * After the voxel scan, the feature-level arrays (NumCells, SA/V ratio, sphericity)
+ * are also accessed via local std::vector caches with bulk copyIntoBuffer/copyFromBuffer
+ * calls, avoiding per-element OOC access.
+ *
+ * **Surface area accumulation**: Like the Direct variant, this uses a local
+ * std::vector<float32> to accumulate per-feature surface area during the voxel scan.
+ * Face areas are pre-computed from the image geometry spacing.
+ *
+ * **Memory overhead**: 3 input slice buffers (dimX * dimY * 4 bytes each), plus
+ * local caches for NumCells, SA/V ratio, and sphericity arrays (numFeatures * 4
+ * bytes each). For typical datasets, total overhead is a few MB.
+ *
+ * @see ComputeSurfaceAreaToVolumeDirect for the in-core variant.
+ * @see ComputeSurfaceAreaToVolume for the dispatcher.
+ * @see DispatchAlgorithm for the selection mechanism.

+ * 2. The voxel has a face neighbor with FeatureId == 0 (when MarkFeature0Neighbors

+ * The algorithm supports both 3D geometries (full 6-neighbor check) and 2D geometries
+ * (one dimension is degenerate, reducing to a 4-neighbor check on the non-degenerate
+ * plane).
+ *
+ * The output is a feature-level UInt8 array where 0 = interior, 1 = surface.

+ * @class ComputeSurfaceFeaturesDirect
+ * @brief In-core (direct memory access) algorithm for identifying surface features.
+ *
+ * This is the traditional algorithm that uses operator[] to read FeatureIds and write
+ * SurfaceFeatures directly through the DataStore abstraction. It supports both 3D and
+ * 2D image geometries, branching into separate helper functions based on the geometry's
+ * dimensionality.
+ *
+ * **When this variant is selected**: DispatchAlgorithm selects this class when all
+ * input arrays are backed by contiguous in-memory DataStore.
+ *
+ * **3D algorithm**: Iterates all voxels in Z-Y-X order. For each voxel, checks:
+ * - Whether the voxel is on the outer boundary (x/y/z == 0 or max).
+ * - Whether any of its 6 face neighbors has FeatureId == 0 (if MarkFeature0Neighbors
+ *   is enabled).
+ * If either condition is met, the feature owning that voxel is marked as a surface feature.
+ *
+ * **2D algorithm**: Determines which dimension is degenerate (size == 1) and performs
+ * the equivalent 4-neighbor boundary check on the non-degenerate plane.
+ *
+ * **Why a separate OOC variant exists**: The Direct variant accesses the FeatureIds
+ * array via operator[], and for the 3D case, neighbor lookups span +/-1, +/-dimX,
+ * and +/-(dimX*dimY) in flat index space. When FeatureIds is stored in chunked OOC
+ * format, these scattered accesses cause chunk thrashing. The Scanline variant reads
+ * entire Z-slices sequentially to avoid this.
+ *
+ * @see ComputeSurfaceFeaturesScanline for the OOC-optimized variant.
+ * @see ComputeSurfaceFeatures for the dispatcher.

+//
+// Identifies which features touch the outer surface of the image geometry or
+// border FeatureId==0 voxels. Produces the same output as the Direct variant:
+// a feature-level UInt8 array where 0 = interior, 1 = surface.
+//
+// KEY DESIGN PRINCIPLE: All access to the large cell-level FeatureIds array is
+// strictly sequential by Z-slice, using copyIntoBuffer() for bulk reads. The
+// small feature-level SurfaceFeatures array is cached locally in a std::vector
+// and written back in a single copyFromBuffer() call at the end.
+//
+// ROLLING WINDOW: Three std::vector<int32> buffers (prevSlice, curSlice,
+// nextSlice) hold adjacent Z-slices so that all neighbor lookups are simple
+// in-memory array accesses with no disk I/O.
+//
+// 2D GEOMETRY HANDLING: Unlike the Direct variant which has separate 2D/3D
+// code paths, the Scanline variant always iterates the native Z-Y-X grid and
+// remaps coordinates to the 2D plane as needed. This unified approach
+// maintains sequential Z-slice I/O even for 2D geometries where the
+// degenerate dimension is X or Y (not Z).
+//
+// For the degenerate-Z case (zPoints==1), all data fits in a single Z-slice,
+// so prevSlice/nextSlice are unused and all 4 neighbors come from curSlice.
+// For degenerate-X or degenerate-Y cases, the remapped-Y direction maps to
+// the native Z axis, so the +/-Y neighbors come from prevSlice/nextSlice.

+/**
+ * @class ComputeSurfaceFeaturesScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core (OOC) optimized algorithm for identifying surface features using
+ * Z-slice sequential bulk I/O with a 3-slice rolling window.
+ *
+ * **The problem this solves**: When the FeatureIds array is stored out-of-core in
+ * chunked format, the Direct variant's operator[] access to check face neighbors
+ * triggers chunk thrashing -- especially the +/-Z neighbor lookups that are
+ * dimX*dimY elements apart in flat index space. This makes the algorithm orders
+ * of magnitude slower on OOC data.
+ *
+ * **How the rolling window solves it**: This variant reads the FeatureIds array one
+ * native Z-slice at a time using copyIntoBuffer(), maintaining three in-memory
+ * buffers (prevSlice, curSlice, nextSlice). All neighbor lookups are performed on
+ * these in-memory buffers:
+ *   - X and Y neighbors: simple index arithmetic within curSlice.
+ *   - Z neighbors: same position in prevSlice (-Z) or nextSlice (+Z).
+ *
+ * **2D geometry support**: For geometries with one degenerate dimension (size == 1),
+ * the algorithm still iterates the native Z-Y-X grid but remaps coordinates to
+ * the 2D plane for boundary and neighbor checks. This unified approach avoids
+ * separate 2D/3D code paths while maintaining sequential I/O.
+ *
+ * **Output caching**: The SurfaceFeatures output is a small feature-level array
+ * (one element per feature, not per voxel). To avoid per-voxel OOC writes, the
+ * results are accumulated in a local std::vector and bulk-written once at the end
+ * via copyFromBuffer().
+ *
+ * **Memory overhead**: 3 input buffers of size (dimX * dimY * 4 bytes) for the
+ * rolling window, plus a local vector of size (numFeatures * 1 byte) for the
+ * cached output. For typical datasets this is a few MB.
+ *
+ * @see ComputeSurfaceFeaturesDirect for the in-core variant.
+ * @see ComputeSurfaceFeatures for the dispatcher.
+ * @see DispatchAlgorithm for the selection mechanism.

+ * closest triangle can still lie outside this box (its AABB can extend into the box even though its closest
+ * point to `center` is farther away than any candidate found here, or vice versa). The exact answer is only

+ * @class CopyFeatureArrayToElementArrayScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core (chunk-sequential) algorithm for broadcasting feature data to element data.
+ *
+ * Produces the same output as CopyFeatureArrayToElementArrayDirect: for every cell, the value of
+ * the feature that the cell belongs to is copied into a new cell-level array
+ * (created[cell] = selectedFeature[featureIds[cell]]).
+ *
+ * **When this variant is selected**: DispatchAlgorithm selects this class when the FeatureIds
+ * array is backed by chunked/OOC storage (or ForceOocAlgorithm() is set in tests).
+ *
+ * **Why a separate OOC variant exists**: The Direct variant parallelizes per-cell operator[]
+ * access across worker threads. For OOC data that is doubly problematic: (1) DataStore/chunk-cache
+ * access is not thread-safe, and (2) each operator[] on a chunked store pays virtual-dispatch and
+ * chunk-cache lookup overhead. This variant runs single-threaded and reads FeatureIds / writes the
+ * created array in bounded sequential chunks via copyIntoBuffer()/copyFromBuffer(). The (small)
+ * feature-level source array is cached once into a local buffer. Memory use is bounded by the chunk
+ * size plus the feature count -- never proportional to the cell count.
+ *
+ * @see CopyFeatureArrayToElementArrayDirect for the in-core variant.
+ * @see CopyFeatureArrayToElementArray for the dispatcher.

+ *   instead of random per-element access across the full array.

+// DBSCANDirect — In-Core Algorithm
+//
+// This file implements the in-core (Direct) variant of DBSCAN.
+// It is selected by DispatchAlgorithm when all input arrays reside in memory.
+//
+// ALGORITHM OVERVIEW (Grid-based DBSCAN / GDCF):
+//   Based on "Grid-based DBSCAN: Indexing and inference" by Boonchoo et al. 2019.
+//
+//   Phase 1 — Grid Construction:
+//     1. Scan the input array to find min/max bounds per dimension
+//     2. Create a regular grid with cell side length = epsilon / sqrt(dims)
+//     3. Bin each data point into a grid cell
+//     4. Build a compressed grid index (only non-empty cells)
+//     5. Create per-axis bitmap tables for fast neighbor grid queries
+//
+//   Phase 2 — Clustering:
+//     1. Identify "core" grid cells (those with >= minPoints data points)
+//     2. Sort core cells by parse order (low density first, random, etc.)
+//     3. For each core cell, query neighbor grids and merge if canMerge
+//        returns true (any pair of points has distance < epsilon)
+//     4. Expand clusters to border (non-core) grid cells
+//
+//   Phase 3 — Labeling:
+//     Write the final cluster ID for each data point based on its grid cell's
+//     cluster assignment. Points in unassigned cells become outliers (cluster 0).
+//
+// DATA ACCESS PATTERN:
+//   Uses direct operator[] for per-element random access. Grid construction
+//   requires 2-3 full passes over the input array. canMerge requires random
+//   access to arbitrary tuple indices within grid cells. Both patterns are
+//   optimal for in-memory data but would cause chunk thrashing for OOC data.

+// =============================================================================
+// DBSCANScanline — Out-of-Core (OOC) Algorithm
+//
+// This file implements the out-of-core (Scanline) variant of DBSCAN.
+// It is selected by DispatchAlgorithm when any input array uses chunked on-disk
+// storage (e.g., ZarrStore / HDF5 chunked store).
+//
+// PROBLEM:
+//   The DBSCAN algorithm requires multiple passes over the input array during
+//   grid construction (bounds, binning, filling) and random access to arbitrary
+//   tuple indices during canMerge distance checks. When data is stored out-of-core,
+//   each operator[] call may trigger a chunk load/decompress/evict cycle. The grid
+//   construction passes iterate over all N tuples 2-3 times, and canMerge checks
+//   access random positions in the array, making both phases vulnerable to chunk
+//   thrashing.
+//
+// SOLUTION:
+//   1. Grid construction uses 64K-tuple chunk reads via copyIntoBuffer(). Each
+//      of the 2-3 passes reads the input array sequentially in chunks, processing
+//      all tuples in each chunk before moving to the next. This converts N per-
+//      element random accesses into N/65536 sequential bulk reads.
+//
+//   2. canMerge uses readGridCellCoords() to bulk-read all coordinate data for
+//      each grid cell into a local float32 buffer. The pairwise distance check
+//      then operates entirely on in-memory data. Memory cost per canMerge call
+//      is O(gridCellSize * dims), which is typically small (grid cells contain
+//      just a handful of points in practice).
+//
+//   3. The clustering and labeling phases operate on the in-memory grid index
+//      (gridVoxels, clusterForest), which is identical to the Direct variant.
+//      Only grid construction and canMerge are modified for OOC.
+//
+// NOTE: The HyperGridBitMap constructors in this file do NOT accept a
+//   MessageHelper parameter (unlike the Direct variant) because they were
+//   written to minimize the parameter surface for the OOC path.

+ * @class DBSCANScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core algorithm for grid-based DBSCAN using chunked bulk I/O.
+ *
+ * The DBSCAN algorithm has two major data access phases that benefit from OOC optimization:
+ *
+ * **Grid construction** (bounds detection, binning, cell filling): The input array is
+ * scanned multiple times to compute min/max bounds, bin each point into a grid cell,
+ * and build the grid-to-point index. The Scanline variant reads the input array in
+ * sequential 64K-tuple chunks via copyIntoBuffer(), amortizing OOC overhead across
+ * thousands of elements per read instead of per-element random access.
+ *
+ * **Distance computation (canMerge)**: When checking if two adjacent grid cells should
+ * merge, pairwise distances between all points in both cells are computed. The Direct
+ * variant uses operator[] to index directly into the full input array by tuple index.
+ * The Scanline variant instead uses readGridCellCoords() to bulk-read all coordinate
+ * data for each grid cell into a local buffer, then performs pairwise distances entirely
+ * in memory. Memory cost is O(gridCellSize * dims) per canMerge call, not O(n).
+ *
+ * **Labeling**: Both variants use setValue() for writing cluster IDs, which is acceptable
+ * since labeling is a single sequential pass.
+ *
+ * Selected by DispatchAlgorithm when any input array is backed by out-of-core storage.
+ *
+ * @see DBSCANDirect for the in-core-optimized alternative.
+ * @see AlgorithmDispatch.hpp for the dispatch mechanism that selects between them.

+ * @file ErodeDilateBadData.cpp
+ * @brief Iterative morphological erosion/dilation of bad (FeatureId == 0) voxels,
+ *        optimized for out-of-core (OOC) data stores via Z-slice buffered I/O.
+ *
+ * ## High-Level Flow (per iteration)
+ *
+ * 1. **Initialize rolling window** -- Load FeatureId Z-slices 0 and 1 into
+ *    slots 1 (current) and 2 (next) of the three-element window.
+ *
+ * 2. **Scan every voxel** (Z-major, then Y, then X):
+ *    - For each bad voxel (featureId == 0), examine its 6 face neighbors using
+ *      the in-memory rolling-window buffers.
+ *    - **Dilate**: If a neighbor is good (featureId > 0), mark that good
+ *      neighbor to be overwritten with the bad voxel's data.
+ *    - **Erode**: Tally the good neighbors and record the most common one;
+ *      mark the bad voxel to be overwritten with that neighbor's data.
+ *    - Marks are stored in three O(sliceSize) arrays (one per rolling-window
+ *      slot) rather than a single O(totalPoints) array.
+ *
+ * 3. **Deferred transfer** -- After processing each Z-slice, the marks for
+ *    slice z-1 are complete (because only voxels at z-2, z-1, and z can
+ *    affect z-1). Commit those marks via SliceBufferedTransferOneZ, which
+ *    reads the source and destination slices in bulk, applies the copies
+ *    in-memory, and writes back.
+ *
+ * 4. **Rotate windows** -- Swap mark arrays and FeatureId slices forward by
+ *    one position. Clear the newly vacated slot for the next Z-layer.
+ *
+ * 5. **Flush final slice** -- After the Z-loop exits, the last slice's marks
+ *    are still pending; commit them.
+ *
+ * Each iteration must re-read FeatureIds from the store because the preceding
+ * iteration's SliceBufferedTransferOneZ calls may have changed values.

 /**
- * @class ConditionalSetValueFilter
-
+ * @class ErodeDilateBadData
+ * @brief Iterative morphological erosion or dilation of "bad" voxels (FeatureId == 0)
+ *        on a structured ImageGeom grid, optimized for out-of-core (OOC) data stores.
+ *
+ * ## Algorithm Overview
+ *
+ * **Bad data** is any cell whose FeatureId is 0, meaning it failed some prior
+ * classification step. This algorithm either grows those bad regions (dilation)
+ * or shrinks them (erosion) by one voxel per iteration, repeating for a
+ * user-specified number of iterations.
+ *
+ * - **Dilation**: For every bad voxel that has a non-zero (good) face neighbor,
+ *   the good neighbor is marked to become bad. This expands the bad region
+ *   outward by one cell.
+ * - **Erosion**: For every bad voxel, the surrounding good neighbors are tallied
+ *   and the most common FeatureId is chosen. The bad voxel is replaced with
+ *   that FeatureId, shrinking the bad region inward by one cell.
+ *
+ * After marks are determined, all sibling data arrays in the same Attribute
+ * Matrix (except those in the ignored list) are updated in bulk using
+ * SliceBufferedTransferOneZ, so that every array stays consistent with the
+ * modified FeatureIds.
+ *
+ * ## OOC Optimization Strategy
+ *
+ * When data resides in an out-of-core (chunked, disk-backed) store, random
+ * voxel access triggers expensive chunk load/evict cycles ("chunk thrashing").
+ * This implementation avoids that by:
+ *
+ * 1. **3-slice rolling window for FeatureIds**: Three Z-slices (prev, current,
+ *    next) are held in contiguous std::vector buffers, loaded via
+ *    copyIntoBuffer(). Face-neighbor lookups index into these buffers instead
+ *    of hitting the OOC store. As the Z loop advances, the window shifts
+ *    forward with O(1) pointer swaps.
+ *
+ * 2. **Per-slice mark arrays instead of a full-volume neighbor array**: Classic
+ *    implementations allocate an O(totalPoints) neighbors array. This version
+ *    uses three O(sliceSize) mark arrays (one per Z-slice in the window),
+ *    reducing peak memory from O(volume) to O(3 * sliceSize).
+ *
+ * 3. **Deferred, sequential Z-slice writes**: Marks are accumulated as the
+ *    scan proceeds. When slice z finishes, the marks for slice z-1 are
+ *    guaranteed complete (no future voxel can modify them), so z-1 is
+ *    transferred via SliceBufferedTransferOneZ. This keeps writes sequential
+ *    and aligned with OOC chunk boundaries.
+ *
+ * 4. **Per-iteration re-read**: Each iteration re-initializes the rolling
+ *    window from the store because the previous iteration's transfers may
+ *    have changed FeatureId values.

- * @class
+ * @class ErodeDilateCoordinationNumber
+ * @brief Smooths voxel boundaries by eroding or dilating based on coordination
+ *        number thresholds, optimized for out-of-core (OOC) data stores.
+ *
+ * ## Algorithm Overview
+ *
+ * The "coordination number" of a voxel on a good/bad boundary is the count of
+ * its 6 face neighbors that belong to the opposite class (good vs. bad, where
+ * bad means FeatureId == 0). A high coordination number indicates that a voxel
+ * is surrounded mostly by the opposite type and is therefore likely noise or a
+ * rough boundary artifact.
+ *
+ * For each voxel on the boundary:
+ * 1. Count the face neighbors of the opposite type (coordination number).
+ * 2. Among those opposite-type neighbors, find the most common FeatureId.
+ * 3. If the coordination number meets or exceeds the user's threshold, mark
+ *    the voxel to be replaced by the most common neighbor's data.
+ *
+ * This is repeated until no voxels exceed the threshold (if Loop is true) or
+ * for a single pass (if Loop is false).
+ *
+ * ## OOC Optimization Strategy
+ *
+ * The same 3-slice rolling window and per-slice mark/coordination array pattern
+ * used in ErodeDilateBadData applies here:
+ *
+ * 1. **3-slice rolling window for FeatureIds**: Three Z-slices (prev, current,
+ *    next) are held in std::vector buffers loaded via copyIntoBuffer(). All
+ *    face-neighbor FeatureId lookups read from these buffers.
+ *
+ * 2. **Per-slice mark and coordination arrays**: Instead of full-volume arrays,
+ *    three O(sliceSize) neighbor-mark arrays and three O(sliceSize) coordination
+ *    arrays track the results for the rolling window. This reduces peak memory
+ *    from O(volume) to O(sliceSize).
+ *
+ * 3. **Deferred sequential writes**: Marks for slice z-1 are committed after
+ *    processing slice z, because only voxels at z-2 through z can affect z-1.
+ *    The transfer is conditional: only voxels whose coordination number meets
+ *    the threshold are actually committed, using SliceBufferedTransferOneZ.
+ *
+ * 4. **Per-pass re-read**: Each pass re-reads FeatureIds from the store because
+ *    the previous pass's transfers may have changed boundary conditions.

+ * @brief Iterative morphological erosion/dilation of a boolean mask array,
+ *        optimized for out-of-core (OOC) data stores via Z-slice buffered I/O.
+ *
+ * ## High-Level Flow (per iteration)
+ *
+ * 1. **Initialize dual rolling windows** -- Load mask Z-slices 0 and 1 into
+ *    both `maskSlices` (read buffer) and `maskCopySlices` (write buffer).
+ *
+ * 2. **Scan every voxel** (Z-major, then Y, then X):
+ *    - For each false (unmasked) voxel, examine face neighbors using the
+ *      read buffer (`maskSlices`).
+ *    - **Dilate**: If any neighbor is true, set this voxel to true in the
+ *      write buffer (`maskCopySlices[1]`).
+ *    - **Erode**: If any neighbor is true, set that neighbor to false in
+ *      the write buffer (`maskCopySlices[slot]`).
+ *    - The dual-buffer approach prevents modifications from affecting
+ *      neighbor reads within the same iteration.
+ *
+ * 3. **Deferred write-back** -- After processing Z-slice z, write the
+ *    completed z-1 slice from the write buffer back to the data store
+ *    using copyFromBuffer. This keeps writes sequential.
+ *
+ * 4. **Rotate windows** -- Swap both read and write buffer slots forward
+ *    by one Z-layer. Load the next Z+1 slice.
+ *
+ * 5. **Flush remaining slices** -- After the Z-loop exits, write back the
+ *    last slice (or the single slice for 1-deep volumes).
+ *
+ * ## Key Design Note: Why uint8 buffers?
+ *
+ * std::vector<bool> uses bit-packing, which means individual elements cannot
+ * be addressed by pointer. Since the rolling window needs random element
+ * access by index, uint8 buffers (0 or 1) are used instead. A separate
+ * bool[] buffer is used for the copyIntoBuffer/copyFromBuffer calls which
+ * require a contiguous bool array.

- * @class
+ * @class ErodeDilateMask
+ * @brief Iterative morphological erosion or dilation of a boolean mask array
+ *        using face-neighbor connectivity, optimized for out-of-core (OOC)
+ *        data stores.
+ *
+ * ## Algorithm Overview
+ *
+ * This algorithm performs morphological erosion or dilation on a boolean mask
+ * array (true/false per voxel) rather than on FeatureIds. Unlike the
+ * ErodeDilateBadData algorithm, this one operates directly on the mask and
+ * does not propagate changes to sibling data arrays.
+ *
+ * - **Dilation**: For every false (unmasked) voxel, if any face neighbor is
+ *   true (masked), the voxel is set to true. This grows the masked region
+ *   outward by one cell per iteration.
+ * - **Erosion**: For every false voxel, if any face neighbor is true, that
+ *   neighbor is set to false. This shrinks the masked region inward by one
+ *   cell per iteration.
+ *
+ * The operation is applied in-place to the mask array for each iteration.
+ * A read-then-write pattern (using separate maskSlices and maskCopySlices
+ * buffers) ensures that the scan within a single iteration reads the
+ * original state while accumulating modifications into the copy.
+ *
+ * ## OOC Optimization Strategy
+ *
+ * 1. **3-slice rolling window (dual buffers)**: Two sets of three Z-slice
+ *    buffers are maintained: `maskSlices` for reading the original mask state
+ *    and `maskCopySlices` for accumulating the modified state. This dual-buffer
+ *    approach ensures reads and writes do not interfere within a single
+ *    iteration.
+ *
+ * 2. **uint8 intermediary for bool**: Because std::vector<bool> uses
+ *    bit-packing (which prevents taking element addresses), the rolling
+ *    window uses uint8 buffers. A separate bool[] buffer handles bulk I/O
+ *    with the data store's copyIntoBuffer/copyFromBuffer API.
+ *
+ * 3. **Deferred sequential writes**: After processing each Z-slice, the
+ *    completed z-1 slice is written back to the store using copyFromBuffer.
+ *    This keeps writes sequential and aligned with OOC chunk boundaries.
+ *
+ * 4. **Per-iteration re-read**: Each iteration re-loads the rolling window
+ *    from the store because the previous iteration's writes changed the mask.

-// FillBadData Algorithm Overview
-// =============================================================================
-//
-// This file implements an optimized algorithm for filling bad data (voxels with
-// FeatureId == 0) in image geometries. The algorithm handles out-of-core datasets
-// efficiently by processing data in chunks and uses a four-phase approach:
-//
-// Phase 1: Chunk-Sequential Connected Component Labeling (CCL)
-//   - Process chunks sequentially, assigning provisional labels to bad data regions
-//   - Use Union-Find to track equivalences between labels across chunk boundaries
-//   - Track size of each connected component
-//
-// Phase 2: Global Resolution
-//   - Flatten Union-Find structure to resolve all equivalences
-//   - Accumulate region sizes to root labels
-//
-// Phase 3: Region Classification and Relabeling
-//   - Classify regions as "small" (below threshold) or "large" (above threshold)
-//   - Small regions: mark with -1 for filling in Phase 4
-//   - Large regions: keep as 0 or assign to new phase (if requested)
-//
-// Phase 4: Iterative Morphological Fill
-//   - Iteratively fill -1 voxels by assigning them to the most common neighbor
-//   - Update all cell data arrays to match the filled voxels
-//

+// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+//
+// This file implements the BFS (breadth-first search) variant of the FillBadData
+// algorithm, optimized for in-core (contiguous memory) data access. The algorithm
+// identifies connected regions of bad data (FeatureId == 0), classifies them by
+// size, and fills small regions by copying cell data from neighboring good features.
+//
+// The BFS approach uses O(N) temporary buffers and relies on random access to
+// both the FeatureIds array and the temporary vectors. This is efficient when all
+// data fits in RAM but causes catastrophic chunk thrashing when data is stored
+// out-of-core in compressed HDF5 chunks. For OOC data, FillBadDataCCL should be
+// used instead (selected automatically by the FillBadData dispatcher).
+//
+// Algorithm Steps:
+//   Step 1: Linear scan to find max FeatureId (and optionally max Phase)
+//   Step 2: BFS flood-fill to discover and classify connected bad-data regions
+//   Step 3: Iterative morphological dilation to fill small regions via neighbor voting
+//
+// See FillBadDataBFS.hpp for detailed algorithm documentation.

+/**
+ * @class FillBadDataBFS
+ * @brief In-core BFS flood-fill algorithm for filling bad data regions in an
+ * image geometry.
+ *
+ * This is the in-core-optimized implementation of the FillBadData algorithm.
+ * It uses breadth-first search (BFS) to discover connected components of bad
+ * data (voxels with FeatureId == 0), classifies them by size, and iteratively
+ * fills small regions by copying cell data from the best neighboring good feature
+ * determined by majority vote.
+ *
+ * ## Algorithm Overview
+ *
+ * The algorithm proceeds in three steps:
+ *
+ * **Step 1 -- Scan for maximum feature ID (and optionally maximum phase).**
+ * A linear scan finds the largest FeatureId value, which is used to size the
+ * vote counter array in Step 3.
+ *
+ * **Step 2 -- BFS flood-fill to classify bad-data regions.**
+ * Starting from each unvisited voxel with FeatureId == 0, BFS expands to all
+ * face-adjacent bad-data neighbors. The resulting connected component is then
+ * classified by voxel count:
+ * - **Large regions** (>= minAllowedDefectSize): Kept as FeatureId = 0 (voids).
+ *   Optionally assigned to a new phase (maxPhase + 1) for visualization.
+ * - **Small regions** (< minAllowedDefectSize): Marked with FeatureId = -1,
+ *   indicating they should be filled in Step 3.
+ *
+ * **Step 3 -- Iterative morphological dilation (fill).**
+ * Each iteration scans all voxels with FeatureId == -1. For each, the 6
+ * face-adjacent neighbors are tallied by feature ID (majority vote). The
+ * neighbor with the highest vote count becomes the "source" for that voxel.
+ * After the vote scan, all cell data arrays are updated by copying every
+ * component from the source neighbor to the target voxel. FeatureIds are
+ * updated LAST to prevent a freshly filled voxel from becoming a vote source
+ * before its other arrays are copied. Iterations repeat until no -1 voxels
+ * remain (the good-data boundary dilates inward by one voxel layer per
+ * iteration).
+ *
+ * ## Memory Usage
+ *
+ * This algorithm allocates O(N) temporary buffers:
+ * - `neighbors`: int32 per voxel, mapping each voxel to its best source neighbor
+ * - `alreadyChecked`: 1 bit per voxel (std::vector<bool>), tracking BFS visited state
+ * - `featureNumber`: int32 per feature (O(numFeatures)), used as a vote counter
+ *
+ * These O(N) allocations are efficient when data fits in RAM because all accesses
+ * are to contiguous in-memory arrays with O(1) random access.
+ *
+ * ## Why This is Not Suitable for Out-of-Core
+ *
+ * BFS expands outward from a seed in a wavefront pattern, visiting neighbors in
+ * an unpredictable order relative to the on-disk chunk layout. When data is stored
+ * in compressed HDF5 chunks, each neighbor access may trigger a chunk load/evict
+ * cycle. For a 300x300x300 volume stored in 64x64x64 chunks, a single BFS that
+ * spans the volume boundary crosses chunk boundaries thousands of times, causing
+ * catastrophic I/O amplification ("chunk thrashing"). The CCL variant avoids this
+ * by processing data in strict Z-slice sequential order.
+ *
+ * @see FillBadDataCCL for the out-of-core-optimized alternative.
+ * @see FillBadData for the dispatcher that selects between BFS and CCL.
+ * @see AlgorithmDispatch.hpp for the dispatch mechanism.

+// FillBadDataCCL.cpp -- Out-of-core CCL algorithm for filling bad data
+// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+//
+// This file implements the out-of-core optimized variant of the FillBadData
+// algorithm. It replaces the BFS flood-fill approach (see FillBadDataBFS.cpp)
+// with a four-phase pipeline built on scanline Connected Component Labeling
+// (CCL) and Union-Find, designed to process data in strict Z-slice sequential
+// order to avoid chunk thrashing in OOC storage.
+//
+// ## The Chunk Thrashing Problem
+//
+// When data is stored in compressed HDF5 chunks (e.g., 64x64x64 voxels per
+// chunk), each random access to a voxel may trigger decompression of an entire
+// chunk. BFS flood-fill visits neighbors in a wavefront pattern that crosses
+// chunk boundaries unpredictably, causing the same chunks to be loaded and
+// evicted thousands of times. For a 300x300x300 volume, this can turn a
+// ~1-second in-core operation into a multi-hour ordeal.
+//
+// ## How CCL Avoids Thrashing
+//
+// The CCL approach processes voxels in a fixed Z-Y-X scan order, reading each
+// Z-slice exactly once via bulk copyIntoBuffer/copyFromBuffer calls. Cross-slice
+// connectivity is resolved symbolically through a Union-Find data structure,
+// requiring only O(labels) memory rather than O(volume). A rolling 2-slice
+// label buffer provides backward neighbor lookups using O(dimX * dimY) memory.
+//
+// ## Four-Phase Pipeline
+//
+// Phase 1: Z-Slice Sequential CCL
+//   Scans Z-slices sequentially, assigning provisional labels to bad-data voxels
+//   (FeatureId == 0). Uses a 2-slice rolling label buffer for backward neighbor
+//   reads. Records equivalences in Union-Find. Accumulates per-label voxel counts.
+//   Writes provisional labels to the FeatureIds store for Phase 3 to read.
+//
+// Phase 2: Global Resolution
+//   Flattens the Union-Find so every label points directly to its root.
+//   Accumulates per-label sizes to root labels for size classification.
+//
+// Phase 3: Region Classification and Relabeling
+//   Reads provisional labels from FeatureIds (one Z-slice at a time), resolves
+//   each to its root, and classifies by total component size:
+//   - Small regions (< threshold): relabeled to -1 for filling in Phase 4
+//   - Large regions (>= threshold): relabeled to 0 (optionally new phase)
+//
+// Phase 4: Iterative Morphological Fill (Temp-File Deferred)
+//   Each iteration has two passes:
+//   - Pass 1 (Vote): 3-slice rolling window scan. For each -1 voxel, majority
+//     vote among face neighbors. Write (dest, src) pairs to temp file.
+//   - Pass 2 (Apply): Read pairs back, apply fills via 3-slice buffered bulk I/O.
+//   No O(N) memory allocations. Uses O(features) vote counter + temp file I/O.
+//   Repeats until no -1 voxels remain.
+//
+// ## Result Equivalence
+//
+// This algorithm produces identical results to FillBadDataBFS for the same inputs.
+// The four-phase decomposition is purely an optimization of the data access pattern.

+// WHY a 3-slice window:
+// Each fill pair (dest, src) copies data from a source voxel to a destination
+// voxel. The source is always a face-adjacent neighbor of the destination, so
+// it can be in the same Z-slice, the previous Z-slice (z-1), or the next Z-slice
+// (z+1). By keeping three consecutive Z-slices in memory [prev | cur | next],
+// we can resolve any fill pair without additional I/O. Since pairs are generated
+// in Z-Y-X order (from the Phase 4 vote scan), consecutive pairs tend to be in
+// the same Z-slice, and the window only shifts when the destination moves to a
+// new Z-slice.
+//
+// I/O REDUCTION:
+// Without this optimization, each fill pair would require two per-tuple OOC
+// accesses (one read for src, one write for dest), resulting in potentially
+// millions of individual chunk decompressions. With the 3-slice window, each
+// Z-slice is read/written at most once per iteration, reducing I/O to
+// approximately 3 * dimZ bulk reads + dimZ bulk writes per array per iteration.

+// PHASE 1: Z-Slice Sequential Connected Component Labeling (CCL)
+// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+//
+// This phase performs connected component labeling on bad-data voxels
+// (FeatureId == 0) using a Z-slice sequential scanline algorithm. The key
+// insight that makes this OOC-friendly is that scanline CCL only needs to
+// check three BACKWARD neighbors (x-1, y-1, z-1), all of which have already
+// been processed. This means we can process voxels in strict Z-Y-X order,
+// reading each Z-slice exactly once with a bulk copyIntoBuffer call.
+//
+// Data structures:
+// - labelBuffer: Rolling 2-slice buffer (2 * dimX * dimY int32 values).
+//   Alternates between even/odd Z indices via (z % 2) to store provisional
+//   labels for the current and previous Z-slice. This provides O(1) backward
+//   neighbor lookups without storing labels for the entire volume.
+// - unionFind: Tracks equivalences between provisional labels assigned to
+//   different parts of the same connected component. When a voxel has multiple
+//   differently-labeled backward neighbors, their labels are united.
+// - featureIdsSlice: Temporary buffer for reading/writing one Z-slice of
+//   FeatureIds. Provisional labels are written back to the FeatureIds store
+//   so that Phase 3 can read them without needing a separate label volume.
+//
+// Label assignment:
+// - Each bad-data voxel with no labeled backward neighbor gets a new
+//   provisional label (nextLabel++).
+// - Each bad-data voxel with one or more labeled backward neighbors inherits
+//   the smallest label. If multiple differently-labeled neighbors exist,
+//   they are united in the Union-Find.
+// - Good-data voxels (FeatureId != 0) are skipped and retain their original
+//   FeatureId values.
+//
+// Provisional labels start at (maxExistingFeatureId + 1) to avoid collision
+// with existing good-feature IDs. This allows Phase 3 to distinguish between
+// original feature IDs and CCL-assigned labels using a simple threshold check.

+/**
+ * @class FillBadDataCCL
+ * @brief Out-of-core optimized algorithm for filling bad data regions using
+ * scanline Connected Component Labeling (CCL) with Union-Find.
+ *
+ * This is the OOC-optimized implementation of the FillBadData algorithm. It
+ * replaces the BFS flood-fill approach with a four-phase pipeline that processes
+ * data in strict Z-slice sequential order, avoiding the random access pattern
+ * that causes chunk thrashing when data is stored in compressed HDF5 chunks.
+ *
+ * ## Why CCL Instead of BFS for Out-of-Core
+ *
+ * BFS flood-fill expands outward from a seed voxel, visiting neighbors in a
+ * wavefront pattern. This wavefront crosses Z-slice (and therefore chunk)
+ * boundaries unpredictably, causing the HDF5 chunk cache to repeatedly load
+ * and evict the same chunks. For a typical 300x300x300 volume in 64x64x64
+ * chunks, a single BFS can trigger millions of chunk I/O operations.
+ *
+ * CCL avoids this by scanning voxels in a fixed Z-Y-X order, only looking at
+ * backward neighbors (x-1, y-1, z-1). This means each Z-slice is read exactly
+ * once during the forward scan. Cross-slice connectivity is tracked via a
+ * Union-Find data structure (O(labels) memory), and a rolling 2-slice label
+ * buffer provides backward neighbor lookups using only O(dimX * dimY) memory
+ * instead of O(volume).
+ *
+ * ## Four-Phase Algorithm
+ *
+ * **Phase 1 -- Scanline CCL (Z-slice sequential):**
+ * Processes one Z-slice at a time using copyIntoBuffer/copyFromBuffer for bulk
+ * I/O. For each bad-data voxel (FeatureId == 0), checks three backward neighbors
+ * (x-1, y-1, z-1) in a rolling 2-slice label buffer. Assigns provisional labels
+ * and records equivalences in a UnionFind structure. Writes provisional labels
+ * back to the FeatureIds store for use in Phase 3. Accumulates per-label voxel
+ * counts for size classification.
+ *
+ * **Phase 2 -- Global resolution:**
+ * Flattens the UnionFind structure so every label points directly to its root,
+ * and accumulates per-label sizes to root labels. After this phase, querying
+ * the size of any label gives the total voxel count of its connected component.
+ *
+ * **Phase 3 -- Region classification and relabeling:**
+ * Reads provisional labels back from the FeatureIds store (one Z-slice at a
+ * time) and classifies each component:
+ * - Small regions (< minAllowedDefectSize): Relabeled to -1 for filling
+ * - Large regions (>= minAllowedDefectSize): Relabeled to 0 (optionally
+ *   assigned to a new phase for visualization)
+ * Original good-feature labels (in [1, startLabel)) are left unchanged.
+ *
+ * **Phase 4 -- Iterative morphological fill (temp-file deferred):**
+ * Each iteration has two passes:
+ * - Pass 1 (Vote): Scans voxels using a 3-slice rolling window. For each -1
+ *   voxel, finds the best positive-FeatureId neighbor via majority vote. Writes
+ *   (dest, src) index pairs to a temporary file. FeatureIds are read-only during
+ *   this pass, ensuring all votes see the pre-iteration state.
+ * - Pass 2 (Apply): Reads pairs back from the temp file and applies fills using
+ *   a 3-slice rolling buffer per cell array, converting per-tuple random accesses
+ *   into bulk slice I/O operations.
+ * Iterations repeat until no -1 voxels remain.
+ *
+ * ## Memory Usage
+ *
+ * - Phase 1: O(dimX * dimY) for the 2-slice label buffer + O(labels) for UnionFind
+ * - Phase 2: O(labels) for flatten
+ * - Phase 3: O(dimX * dimY) for slice buffers + O(labels) for classification
+ * - Phase 4: O(numFeatures) for vote counter + O(dimX * dimY) for 3-slice windows
+ *   + temp file I/O for deferred fill pairs
+ *
+ * No O(N) memory allocations are made at any point (where N = total voxels).
+ *
+ * @see FillBadDataBFS for the in-core-optimized alternative.
+ * @see FillBadData for the dispatcher that selects between BFS and CCL.
+ * @see AlgorithmDispatch.hpp for the dispatch mechanism.
+ * @see UnionFind for the disjoint-set data structure used in Phases 1-3.

- * @brief This algorithm implements support code for the IdentifySampleFilter
+ * @brief Dispatcher that selects between BFS (in-core) and CCL (out-of-core) algorithms
+ * for identifying the largest connected sample region in an image geometry.
+ *
+ * This class does not contain algorithm logic itself. It inspects the storage
+ * type of the mask array and delegates to one of two algorithm classes:
+ *
+ * - **IdentifySampleBFS** (in-core): Uses BFS flood-fill with O(N) temporary
+ *   bit vectors (checked, sample) to discover connected components. Fast when
+ *   data fits in RAM due to O(1) random access, but causes chunk thrashing in
+ *   OOC mode because BFS visits neighbors in an unpredictable wavefront pattern.
+ *
+ * - **IdentifySampleCCL** (out-of-core): Uses scanline Connected Component
+ *   Labeling (CCL) with a rolling 2-slice label buffer and Vector Union-Find.
+ *   Processes data in strict Z-slice sequential order, reading each slice
+ *   exactly once. Uses a "replay" technique to avoid O(volume) label storage:
+ *   the forward CCL scan is re-executed deterministically to re-derive labels
+ *   on the fly during the apply phase.
+ *
+ * Both variants support the slice-by-slice mode, which delegates to the shared
+ * IdentifySampleSliceBySliceFunctor (defined in IdentifySampleCommon.hpp).
+ * Slice-by-slice mode uses BFS on individual 2D slices, which is always safe
+ * because a single slice fits in memory regardless of OOC storage.
+ *
+ * The dispatch decision is made by DispatchAlgorithm<BFS, CCL>(), which checks
+ * whether the mask array uses out-of-core storage (or if the global
+ * ForceOocAlgorithm() test flag is set).
+ *
+ * @see IdentifySampleBFS for the in-core-optimized implementation.
+ * @see IdentifySampleCCL for the out-of-core-optimized implementation.
+ * @see IdentifySampleCommon.hpp for the shared slice-by-slice functor.

+/**
+ * @class IdentifySampleBFS
+ * @brief In-core BFS flood-fill algorithm for identifying the largest connected
+ * sample region in an image geometry.
+ *
+ * This is the in-core-optimized implementation of the IdentifySample algorithm.
+ * It uses breadth-first search (BFS) to discover connected components of "good"
+ * voxels (mask == true), identifies the largest component as the sample, and
+ * optionally fills interior holes in the sample boundary.
+ *
+ * ## Algorithm Overview
+ *
+ * The algorithm has two phases:
+ *
+ * **Phase 1 -- Find the largest connected component of good voxels.**
+ * BFS flood-fill is initiated from each unvisited good voxel. The BFS expands
+ * to all face-adjacent (6-connected) good neighbors, discovering one connected
+ * component per seed. The component with the most voxels is recorded as "the
+ * sample". After all components are found, any good voxels NOT in the largest
+ * component are set to false (removing satellite regions and noise).
+ *
+ * **Phase 2 -- Fill interior holes (optional, when FillHoles is true).**
+ * A second BFS pass runs on bad voxels (mask == false). Each connected component
+ * of bad voxels is discovered via BFS. During expansion, a `touchesBoundary`
+ * flag tracks whether any voxel in the component lies on the domain boundary
+ * (x/y/z == 0 or max). If the component does NOT touch the boundary, it is
+ * fully enclosed by the sample (an interior hole) and all its voxels are set
+ * to true. Boundary-touching components are external empty space and left as-is.
+ *
+ * ## Memory Usage
+ *
+ * Uses O(N) temporary memory:
+ * - `checked`: std::vector<bool> (1 bit per voxel), tracks BFS visited state
+ * - `sample`: std::vector<bool> (1 bit per voxel), marks voxels in the largest component
+ * - `currentVList`: std::vector<int64>, BFS queue (grows to component size)
+ *
+ * ## Why This is Not Suitable for Out-of-Core
+ *
+ * BFS expands outward from a seed in a wavefront pattern, visiting face-adjacent
+ * neighbors in an order determined by the queue. When the goodVoxels mask array
+ * is stored in compressed HDF5 chunks, each getValue() call may trigger chunk
+ * decompression. The wavefront crosses chunk boundaries unpredictably, causing
+ * the chunk cache to repeatedly load and evict the same chunks (chunk thrashing).
+ * For large volumes, this can degrade performance by orders of magnitude. The
+ * CCL variant avoids this by processing data in strict Z-slice sequential order.
+ *
+ * ## Slice-By-Slice Mode
+ *
+ * When the user enables slice-by-slice processing, this class delegates to the
+ * shared IdentifySampleSliceBySliceFunctor (defined in IdentifySampleCommon.hpp),
+ * which performs BFS on individual 2D slices. This is safe even for OOC data
+ * because a single 2D slice fits in memory.
+ *
+ * @see IdentifySampleCCL for the out-of-core-optimized alternative.
+ * @see IdentifySample for the dispatcher that selects between BFS and CCL.
+ * @see IdentifySampleCommon.hpp for the shared slice-by-slice functor.
+ * @see AlgorithmDispatch.hpp for the dispatch mechanism.

+// IdentifySampleCCL.cpp -- Out-of-core CCL for sample identification
+// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+//
+// This file implements the out-of-core optimized variant of the IdentifySample
+// algorithm. It replaces the BFS flood-fill approach (see IdentifySampleBFS.cpp)
+// with scanline Connected Component Labeling (CCL) and a "replay" technique
+// designed to process data in strict Z-slice sequential order, avoiding chunk
+// thrashing in OOC storage.
+//
+// ## Architecture: Generic CCL + Replay
+//
+// The implementation is built on two generic template functions:
+//
+// 1. runForwardCCL<T>(store, dims, condition, cancel)
+//    Performs a single forward scan through the volume in Z-Y-X order. For each
+//    voxel where `condition` returns true, assigns a provisional label by
+//    checking three backward neighbors (x-1, y-1, z-1) in a rolling 2-slice
+//    label buffer. Records equivalences in a VectorUnionFind. Returns a CCLResult
+//    containing the flattened Union-Find, per-root sizes, and the largest root.
+//
+// 2. replayForwardCCL<T>(store, dims, unionFind, condition, action, cancel)
+//    Re-executes the exact same forward scan to re-derive the same provisional
+//    labels deterministically. For each labeled voxel, resolves the provisional
+//    label to its root via the (already flattened) Union-Find, then calls
+//    `action(data, inSlice, root, x, y, z)` to apply per-voxel logic. If the
+//    action modifies the slice data, the slice is written back via copyFromBuffer.
+//
+// This "run then replay" pattern avoids O(volume) label storage. The trade-off
+// is reading each Z-slice twice (once during run, once during replay), but for
+// OOC datasets the memory savings are critical -- the volume itself may not fit
+// in RAM.
+//
+// ## Phase Structure
+//
+// The IdentifySampleCCLFunctor orchestrates up to four phases:
+//   Phase 1: runForwardCCL on good voxels -> find largest component
+//   Phase 2: replayForwardCCL on good voxels -> mask non-sample voxels
+//   Phase 3: runForwardCCL on bad voxels -> find hole components (if FillHoles)
+//   Phase 4a: replayForwardCCL on bad voxels -> identify boundary-touching roots
+//   Phase 4b: replayForwardCCL on bad voxels -> fill interior holes
+//
+// See IdentifySampleCCL.hpp for detailed algorithm documentation.

+// =============================================================================
+// Generic Z-slice-sequential Connected Component Labeling function that works
+// on any boolean condition. It processes the volume one Z-slice at a time using
+// copyIntoBuffer for OOC-friendly reads, and a rolling 2-slice label buffer
+// instead of storing labels for the entire volume.
+//
+// How it works:
+//   - Scans voxels in Z-slice order (z, y, x innermost). For each voxel where
+//     `condition(sliceData, inSlice)` returns true, checks three backward
+//     neighbors (x-1, y-1, z-1) for existing labels.
+//   - If no labeled neighbor exists, assigns a new provisional label.
+//   - If multiple differently-labeled neighbors exist, unites them in the
+//     union-find structure.
+//   - Tracks per-label voxel counts (labelSizes) so the largest root can be
+//     identified after flattening, without a separate counting pass.
+//
+// The `condition` lambda determines which voxels to label. For example:
+//   - `data[inSlice] == true` labels good voxels (sample identification)
+//   - `!data[inSlice]` labels bad voxels (hole detection)
+//
+// Returns a CCLResult containing the union-find, accumulated root sizes,
+// the next available label, and the largest root/size.

+/**
+ * @class IdentifySampleCCL
+ * @brief Out-of-core optimized algorithm for identifying the largest connected
+ * sample region using scanline Connected Component Labeling (CCL) with Union-Find.
+ *
+ * This is the OOC-optimized implementation of the IdentifySample algorithm. It
+ * replaces the BFS flood-fill approach with scanline CCL that processes data in
+ * strict Z-slice sequential order, avoiding the random access pattern that causes
+ * chunk thrashing when data is stored in compressed HDF5 chunks.
+ *
+ * ## Why CCL Instead of BFS for Out-of-Core
+ *
+ * BFS flood-fill visits neighbors in a wavefront pattern, crossing Z-slice (and
+ * chunk) boundaries unpredictably. Each getValue() call on an OOC mask array may
+ * trigger chunk decompression, and the wavefront pattern causes the same chunks
+ * to be loaded and evicted repeatedly. For large volumes (e.g., 500x500x500),
+ * this can turn a sub-second in-core operation into a multi-hour ordeal.
+ *
+ * CCL avoids this by scanning voxels in a fixed Z-Y-X order, only checking
+ * backward neighbors (x-1, y-1, z-1). Each Z-slice is read exactly once via
+ * a bulk copyIntoBuffer call. Cross-slice connectivity is resolved symbolically
+ * through a VectorUnionFind structure (O(labels) memory).
+ *
+ * ## Algorithm Phases
+ *
+ * The algorithm has up to four phases (Phases 3-4 only run if FillHoles is true):
+ *
+ * **Phase 1 -- Forward CCL on good voxels:**
+ * Runs runForwardCCL() with condition = (mask[i] == true). Discovers all
+ * connected components of good voxels, tracks per-component sizes, and identifies
+ * the largest component as "the sample". Uses a rolling 2-slice label buffer
+ * (O(dimX * dimY) memory) for backward neighbor lookups.
+ *
+ * **Phase 2 -- Replay CCL to mask non-sample voxels:**
+ * Runs replayForwardCCL() with the same good-voxel condition. This re-executes
+ * the exact same forward scan deterministically, re-deriving the same provisional
+ * labels on the fly. For each voxel whose resolved root is not the largest
+ * component, sets the mask to false (removing satellite regions). This avoids
+ * O(volume) label storage by recomputing labels instead of storing them.
+ *
+ * **Phase 3 -- Forward CCL on bad voxels (hole detection, optional):**
+ * Runs runForwardCCL() with condition = (mask[i] == false). Discovers connected
+ * components of non-sample space (exterior empty space + interior holes).
+ *
+ * **Phase 4 -- Replay CCL to fill interior holes (optional):**
+ * Two replay passes: (4a) identifies which bad-voxel components touch the domain
+ * boundary (these are exterior, not holes); (4b) fills interior holes (components
+ * NOT touching any boundary) by setting their mask voxels to true.
+ *
+ * ## The Replay Trick -- Avoiding O(Volume) Label Storage
+ *
+ * The key OOC technique in this algorithm is the "replay" approach. Scanline CCL
+ * label assignment is fully deterministic given the same scan order and condition.
+ * So instead of storing labels for the entire volume (O(volume) memory), we
+ * re-run the forward scan to re-derive the same labels on the fly. The already-
+ * flattened Union-Find resolves each re-derived label to its root in O(1). This
+ * trades an extra data read (reading each Z-slice twice) for massive memory
+ * savings -- critical when the volume itself does not fit in RAM.
+ *
+ * ## Memory Usage
+ *
+ * - Phase 1: O(dimX * dimY) for 2-slice label buffer + O(labels) for Union-Find + O(labels) for sizes
+ * - Phase 2: O(dimX * dimY) for 2-slice label buffer (Union-Find reused from Phase 1)
+ * - Phase 3: Same as Phase 1 (new Union-Find for bad-voxel components)
+ * - Phase 4: O(dimX * dimY) for 2-slice label buffer + O(labels) for boundary flags
+ *
+ * No O(volume) memory is allocated at any point.
+ *
+ * ## Slice-By-Slice Mode
+ *
+ * When the user enables slice-by-slice processing, this class delegates to the
+ * shared IdentifySampleSliceBySliceFunctor (defined in IdentifySampleCommon.hpp),
+ * which performs BFS on individual 2D slices. This is safe even for OOC data
+ * because a single 2D slice fits in memory.
+ *
+ * @see IdentifySampleBFS for the in-core-optimized alternative.
+ * @see IdentifySample for the dispatcher that selects between BFS and CCL.
+ * @see IdentifySampleCommon.hpp for the shared slice-by-slice functor and VectorUnionFind.
+ * @see AlgorithmDispatch.hpp for the dispatch mechanism.

+//    BFS is safe and efficient regardless of whether the underlying data
+//    store is in-core or out-of-core.
+//
+//    The functor supports three orthogonal slice planes (XY, XZ, YZ) and
+//    includes a batched YZ code path that amortizes HDF5 I/O by reading

  * @class MultiThresholdObjects
- * @brief This algorithm implements support code for the MultiThresholdObjectsFilter
+ * @brief Dispatcher algorithm for applying multiple threshold conditions to arrays
+ * and producing a boolean mask.
+ *
+ * This class acts as a thin dispatcher that selects between two concrete algorithm
+ * implementations at runtime:
+ *
+ * - **MultiThresholdObjectsDirect** (in-core): Uses per-element operator[] / getComponentValue()
+ *   access with an O(n) tempResultVector for intermediate results. Optimal when all
+ *   arrays reside in memory.
+ *
+ * - **MultiThresholdObjectsScanline** (out-of-core / OOC): Processes data in fixed-size
+ *   64K-tuple chunks using copyIntoBuffer()/copyFromBuffer() bulk I/O. Eliminates the
+ *   O(n) tempResultVector by working chunk-by-chunk, and avoids per-element OOC access.
+ *
+ * The dispatch decision is made by DispatchAlgorithm<Direct, Scanline>() in
+ * AlgorithmDispatch.hpp, which checks whether any input IDataArray uses OOC storage.
+ *
+ * **Why two variants exist**: Each threshold condition requires reading an input array
+ * and comparing every element. When input arrays are stored out-of-core, per-element
+ * getComponentValue() calls trigger chunk load/evict cycles. The Scanline variant reads
+ * input data in 64K-tuple chunks, performs all comparisons for that chunk in memory,
+ * then writes the results back — converting N random accesses per threshold into
+ * N/65536 sequential bulk reads.

+// MultiThresholdObjectsDirect — In-Core Algorithm
+//
+// This file implements the in-core (Direct) variant of MultiThresholdObjects.
+// It is selected by DispatchAlgorithm when all input arrays reside in memory.
+//
+// ALGORITHM OVERVIEW:
+//   For each threshold condition in the user-defined threshold tree:
+//   1. Allocate an O(n) temporary result vector initialized to FALSE
+//   2. Read each element of the input array via getComponentValue()
+//   3. Apply the comparison (< > == !=) to produce TRUE/FALSE per element
+//   4. Merge the temporary results into the output mask using AND/OR logic
+//
+//   Threshold conditions can be nested in ArrayThresholdSets (which recursively
+//   apply AND/OR between their children) or be individual ArrayThreshold comparisons.
+//
+// DATA ACCESS PATTERN:
+//   Uses getComponentValue() for per-element random access to input arrays, and
+//   operator[] for per-element writes to the output mask and temporary vectors.
+//   This is optimal for in-memory data. The O(n) temporary vector is acceptable
+//   when data is in memory but would be wasteful for OOC data — see the Scanline
+//   variant which uses O(chunkSize) temporaries instead.

+// MultiThresholdObjectsScanline — Out-of-Core (OOC) Algorithm
+//
+// This file implements the out-of-core (Scanline) variant of MultiThresholdObjects.
+// It is selected by DispatchAlgorithm when any input array uses chunked on-disk
+// storage (e.g., ZarrStore / HDF5 chunked store).
+//
+// PROBLEM:
+//   The Direct variant uses getComponentValue() for per-element input reads and
+//   operator[] for per-element output writes, plus allocates an O(n) temporary
+//   result vector per threshold condition. When data is stored out-of-core:
+//   - Each getComponentValue() call may load an entire chunk from disk
+//   - The O(n) temporary vector wastes memory when only a chunk is needed
+//   - operator[] writes to the output mask may also trigger chunk load/evict
+//
+// SOLUTION — CHUNKED PROCESSING:
+//   Process data in fixed-size 64K-tuple chunks:
+//   1. Read a chunk of the input array via copyIntoBuffer() (one bulk read)
+//   2. Apply the threshold comparison to produce a chunk-sized temp buffer
+//   3. For the first condition: write temp buffer to output via copyFromBuffer()
+//   4. For subsequent conditions: read current output chunk, merge AND/OR, write back
+//
+// MEMORY SAVINGS:
+//   Peak memory per threshold condition is O(k_ChunkSize) = O(64K) instead of O(n).
+//   For a 100M-tuple dataset, this reduces temporary memory from ~100 MB to ~64 KB.
+//
+// IMPLEMENTATION NOTE:
+//   Temporary buffers use std::unique_ptr<T[]> instead of std::vector<T> to avoid
+//   the std::vector<bool> specialization, which would prevent direct memory access
+//   needed for copyIntoBuffer/copyFromBuffer spans.

+ * @class MultiThresholdObjectsScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core algorithm for multi-threshold filtering using chunked bulk I/O.
+ *
+ * Instead of the Direct variant's per-element access and O(n) temporary result vector,
+ * this variant processes data in fixed-size 64K-tuple chunks:
+ *
+ * For each threshold condition and each chunk:
+ *   1. Read a chunk of the input array via copyIntoBuffer() (sequential bulk read)
+ *   2. Apply the comparison operator to produce a chunk-sized temporary result buffer
+ *   3. For the first condition: write the temp buffer directly to the output mask
+ *      via copyFromBuffer()
+ *   4. For subsequent conditions: read the current output chunk via copyIntoBuffer(),
+ *      merge using AND/OR logic, then write back via copyFromBuffer()
+ *
+ * This approach has two advantages for OOC data:
+ *   - All input array reads use sequential bulk I/O instead of per-element access
+ *   - Peak memory per threshold condition is O(chunkSize) instead of O(n)
+ *
+ * The temporary buffers use std::unique_ptr<T[]> instead of std::vector<T> to avoid
+ * the std::vector<bool> specialization that would prevent direct memory access.
+ *
+ * Selected by DispatchAlgorithm when any input array is backed by out-of-core storage.
+ *
+ * @see MultiThresholdObjectsDirect for the in-core-optimized alternative.
+ * @see AlgorithmDispatch.hpp for the dispatch mechanism that selects between them.

+ * @file QuickSurfaceMeshDirect.cpp
+ * @brief In-core implementation of the QuickSurfaceMesh algorithm.
+ *
+ * This file contains the original QuickSurfaceMesh algorithm that uses direct
+ * operator[] access on DataStore references. It serves as the reference
+ * implementation for correctness. The algorithm generates a triangle surface
+ * mesh from a grid geometry by examining every voxel face: boundary faces
+ * (at volume edges) and interior faces where the FeatureId changes produce
+ * two triangles each.
+ *
+ * The algorithm proceeds in three major phases:
+ *   Phase 1 (correctProblemVoxels): Fix diagonal-conflict voxel configurations
+ *   Phase 2 (determineActiveNodes): Count nodes and triangles in one pass
+ *   Phase 3 (createNodesAndTriangles): Write mesh data in a second pass
+ *
+ * For each voxel at grid position (i,j,k), the algorithm checks three neighbors:
+ *   - neigh1 = (i+1, j, k) -- the +X neighbor
+ *   - neigh2 = (i, j+1, k) -- the +Y neighbor
+ *   - neigh3 = (i, j, k+1) -- the +Z neighbor
+ *
+ * If the FeatureIds differ across a face, or if the face is on the volume
+ * boundary, two triangles are generated for that face. The four vertices of
+ * the face are the corners of the dual grid (offset by +0.5 in each dimension
+ * from the cell centers).

+ * @brief First pass: counts unique mesh vertices (nodes) and triangles.
+ *
+ * For each voxel, the algorithm checks six face conditions:
+ *   - i==0, i==xP-1: left/right volume boundary faces
+ *   - j==0, j==yP-1: front/back volume boundary faces
+ *   - k==0, k==zP-1: bottom/top volume boundary faces
+ *   - FeatureId differs from +X, +Y, or +Z neighbor: interior feature boundary
+ *
+ * Each face that produces triangles has 4 dual-grid nodes (corners of the
+ * face rectangle). The nodeIds array maps each possible dual-grid node
+ * (indexed by its (xP+1)*(yP+1)*(zP+1) linear position) to a sequential
+ * vertex ID. Unvisited entries contain max (sentinel value).
+ *
+ * Two triangles are generated per boundary face, so triangleCount is
+ * incremented by 2 for each detected face.

+ * @brief Second pass: writes vertex coordinates, triangle connectivity,
+ * face labels, node types, and transferred cell/feature data.
+ *
+ * This pass mirrors the structure of determineActiveNodes but additionally:
+ *   - Writes vertex world-space coordinates via GetGridCoordinates()
+ *   - Writes triangle connectivity (3 vertex IDs per triangle)
+ *   - Writes face labels (2-component: [lowerFeatureId, higherFeatureId])
+ *     with -1 for boundary faces
+ *   - Tracks which features "own" each vertex in ownerLists for node type
+ *     classification (2=interior, 3=triple line, 4=quad point, +10=boundary)
+ *   - Runs TupleTransfer functions to copy cell/feature data to face arrays
+ *
+ * Face label ordering: the smaller FeatureId is always placed in component[0].
+ * When one side is the volume exterior, FaceLabel[0] = -1.

+ * @brief In-core algorithm for QuickSurfaceMesh that uses direct operator[]

+ *
+ * Selected by DispatchAlgorithm when all input arrays are backed by in-memory
+ * DataStore. This is the original algorithm implementation and serves as the
+ * reference for correctness.
+ *
+ * The algorithm runs in three phases:
+ *   1. **correctProblemVoxels** -- Iteratively resolves diagonal voxel
+ *      configurations that would produce non-manifold mesh geometry by
+ *      randomly reassigning one of the conflicting voxels to a neighbor's
+ *      FeatureId. Up to 20 iterations until no problem voxels remain.
+ *   2. **determineActiveNodes** -- First pass over all voxels to count how
+ *      many unique mesh vertices (nodes) and triangles will be needed.
+ *      Allocates a nodeIds array of size (xP+1)*(yP+1)*(zP+1) to map
+ *      grid-corner indices to sequential vertex IDs.
+ *   3. **createNodesAndTriangles** -- Second pass that writes vertex
+ *      coordinates, triangle connectivity, face labels, node types, and
+ *      transferred cell/feature data into the output TriangleGeom.
+ *
+ * Memory: O((xP+1)*(yP+1)*(zP+1)) for the nodeIds mapping array.

+/**
+ * @file QuickSurfaceMeshScanline.cpp
+ * @brief Out-of-core (OOC) optimized implementation of the QuickSurfaceMesh algorithm.
+ *
+ * This file implements the scanline variant of QuickSurfaceMesh that avoids
+ * per-element random access to chunked DataStores. Instead of using operator[]
+ * on the FeatureIds array (which triggers chunk load/evict cycles on OOC stores),
+ * this algorithm reads exactly two Z-slices at a time via copyIntoBuffer() and
+ * processes them entirely in local buffers.
+ *
+ * ## Key Differences from QuickSurfaceMeshDirect
+ *
+ * 1. **FeatureIds access**: Direct uses operator[], Scanline uses copyIntoBuffer()
+ *    to bulk-read one Z-slice (xP * yP elements) at a time.
+ *
+ * 2. **Node ID mapping**: Direct allocates an O(volume) nodeIds array of size
+ *    (xP+1)*(yP+1)*(zP+1). Scanline uses two rolling node-plane buffers of
+ *    size O((xP+1)*(yP+1)) each, swapped after each Z-slice. This reduces
+ *    memory from O(volume) to O(slice).
+ *
+ * 3. **Output writes**: Direct writes vertices, triangles, and face labels
+ *    per-element via operator[]. Scanline buffers all vertex coordinates in
+ *    a single allocation and flushes once, while triangle connectivity and
+ *    face labels are buffered per-slice and flushed via copyFromBuffer().
+ *
+ * 4. **Problem voxel correction**: Direct reads/writes the DataStore directly.
+ *    Scanline loads Z-slice pairs, mutates the local buffers, and only writes
+ *    back slices that were actually modified (dirty flag optimization).
+ *
+ * 5. **TupleTransfer**: Direct calls quickSurfaceTransfer() per-triangle.
+ *    Scanline uses quickSurfaceTransferBatch() to process all triangles from
+ *    a Z-slice in one call, reducing virtual function call overhead.
+ *
+ * ## Rolling Buffer Diagram
+ *
+ * For Z-slice k, the algorithm needs:
+ *   - curSlice[]:  FeatureIds for Z = k     (xP * yP elements)
+ *   - nextSlice[]: FeatureIds for Z = k+1   (xP * yP elements)
+ *   - nodePlane0[]: Vertex IDs for Z = k    ((xP+1) * (yP+1) elements)
+ *   - nodePlane1[]: Vertex IDs for Z = k+1  ((xP+1) * (yP+1) elements)
+ *
+ * After processing slice k:
+ *   - std::swap(curSlice, nextSlice)   -- old next becomes current
+ *   - std::swap(nodePlane0, nodePlane1) -- plane1 becomes plane0
+ *   - nodePlane1 is reset to sentinel values

+ * @brief Counting pass using rolling 2-plane node buffers and double-buffered
+ * FeatureId Z-slices.
+ *
+ * This is the OOC equivalent of QuickSurfaceMeshDirect::determineActiveNodes().
+ * The key difference is memory reduction: instead of an O(volume) nodeIds array,
+ * this method uses two node-plane buffers of size O((xP+1)*(yP+1)) each.
+ *
+ * ## Rolling Buffer Strategy
+ *
+ * For Z-slice k, the dual-grid nodes lie on two planes:
+ *   - nodePlane0: nodes at Z = k   (the "current" plane)
+ *   - nodePlane1: nodes at Z = k+1 (the "next" plane)
+ *
+ * After processing all voxels in slice k:
+ *   1. nodePlane0 is discarded (all its nodes have been assigned)
+ *   2. nodePlane1 becomes nodePlane0 for the next iteration
+ *   3. A fresh nodePlane1 is initialized with sentinel values
+ *
+ * This works because each node is referenced only by voxels at Z = k and Z = k-1.
+ * Once we advance past Z = k, nodes in the Z = k plane are never accessed again.
+ *
+ * The FeatureIds are double-buffered similarly: curSlice holds Z = k, nextSlice
+ * holds Z = k+1. After processing, they swap so the old next becomes current.
+ *
+ * Also tracks the maximum FeatureId value (numFeatures) for later array sizing.

+/**
+ * @brief Generation pass: creates the output triangle mesh with OOC-safe I/O.
+ *
+ * This is the OOC equivalent of QuickSurfaceMeshDirect::createNodesAndTriangles().
+ * It produces identical output but uses bulk I/O for all reads and writes:
+ *
+ * ## Output Buffering Strategy
+ *
+ * - **Vertex coordinates**: Buffered in vertCoordBuf (nodeCount * 3 floats),
+ *   flushed once at the end via a single copyFromBuffer() call. This avoids
+ *   per-vertex OOC writes. The buffer is O(surface) not O(volume) because
+ *   only boundary nodes get vertices.
+ *
+ * - **Triangle connectivity**: Accumulated in triBuffer per Z-slice, flushed
+ *   via copyFromBuffer() at the end of each slice. This keeps peak memory
+ *   proportional to the number of triangles in one Z-slice.
+ *
+ * - **Face labels**: Accumulated in faceLabelBuf per Z-slice, flushed with
+ *   triangle connectivity.
+ *
+ * - **TupleTransfer**: Arguments accumulated in ttArgsBuf per Z-slice and
+ *   flushed via quickSurfaceTransferBatch() to reduce virtual call overhead.
+ *
+ * - **Node types**: Computed from ownerLists after all triangles are generated,
+ *   buffered in a local array, and flushed via one copyFromBuffer() call.
+ *
+ * ## Node Assignment
+ *
+ * Uses the same rolling 2-plane node buffer strategy as countActiveNodesAndTriangles().
+ * The assignNode lambda both assigns sequential vertex IDs and writes vertex
+ * coordinates into vertCoordBuf. Multiple calls to assignNode with the same
+ * plane offset are harmless -- the coordinate write is idempotent (last-write-wins
+ * matches the Direct variant's behavior).

+/**
+ * @class QuickSurfaceMeshScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core (OOC) optimized algorithm for QuickSurfaceMesh.
+ *
+ * Selected by DispatchAlgorithm when any input array is backed by chunked
+ * (OOC) storage. Produces identical output to QuickSurfaceMeshDirect but
+ * avoids random-access element reads that would cause chunk thrashing on
+ * disk-backed DataStores.
+ *
+ * ## OOC Strategy
+ *
+ * The key insight is that the QuickSurfaceMesh algorithm only compares each
+ * voxel with its +X, +Y, and +Z neighbors. This means at most two adjacent
+ * Z-slices of FeatureIds are needed at any time. The scanline variant
+ * exploits this by:
+ *
+ *   - **Bulk I/O**: Reading FeatureIds one Z-slice at a time via
+ *     copyIntoBuffer() instead of per-element operator[]. This converts
+ *     O(volume) random reads into O(zP) sequential bulk reads.
+ *
+ *   - **Rolling node-plane buffers**: Instead of the O((xP+1)*(yP+1)*(zP+1))
+ *     nodeIds array used by the Direct variant, this algorithm maintains two
+ *     node-plane buffers of size O((xP+1)*(yP+1)) that roll forward as each
+ *     Z-slice is processed. This reduces memory from O(volume) to O(slice).
+ *
+ *   - **Buffered output writes**: Triangle connectivity, face labels, and
+ *     vertex coordinates are accumulated in per-slice buffers and flushed
+ *     via copyFromBuffer() in one bulk write per Z-slice, avoiding
+ *     per-element OOC writes.
+ *
+ * ## Phases
+ *
+ *   1. **correctProblemVoxels** -- Same diagonal-voxel fix as the Direct
+ *      variant, but reads/writes Z-slice pairs via copyIntoBuffer/copyFromBuffer.
+ *      Uses dirty flags to skip write-back for unmodified slices.
+ *
+ *   2. **countActiveNodesAndTriangles** -- Counting pass using rolling
+ *      node-plane buffers and double-buffered FeatureId slices.
+ *
+ *   3. **createNodesAndTriangles** -- Generation pass that writes mesh data.
+ *      Vertex coordinates are buffered in a single allocation of size
+ *      O(nodeCount * 3) and flushed once at the end. Triangle connectivity
+ *      and face labels are flushed per-slice.
+ *
+ * Memory: O((xP+1)*(yP+1)) for node planes + O(xP*yP) for FeatureId slices
+ * + O(nodeCount * 3) for vertex coordinate buffer.
+ *
+ * @see QuickSurfaceMeshDirect for the in-core reference implementation

+ * @class RemoveFlaggedFeaturesDirect
+ * @brief In-core (direct memory access) algorithm for removing/extracting flagged Features.
+ *
+ * This is the original algorithm that reads and writes the FeatureIds array (and any
+ * companion cell-level arrays) through operator[] on the DataStore. It repeatedly scans
+ * the full volume with a 6-face-neighbor stencil (IdentifyNeighbors) and then propagates
+ * the winning neighbor's data into every removed voxel (FindVoxelArrays), looping until no
+ * removed voxel remains unresolved.
+ *
+ * **When this variant is selected**: DispatchAlgorithm selects this class when the
+ * FeatureIds array is backed by contiguous in-memory DataStore (i.e., not chunked/OOC).
+ * With in-memory data, operator[] is a simple pointer dereference, so the repeated
+ * full-volume, random-neighbor-offset scans are inexpensive.
+ *
+ * **Why a separate OOC variant exists**: When FeatureIds is stored out-of-core in chunked
+ * format, every operator[] call may trigger a chunk load from disk, and the +/-Z neighbor
+ * offset (a full Z-slice away) makes this especially costly. RemoveFlaggedFeaturesScanline
+ * avoids this by reading/writing Z-slices sequentially via copyIntoBuffer/copyFromBuffer.
+ *
+ * @see RemoveFlaggedFeaturesScanline for the OOC-optimized variant.
+ * @see RemoveFlaggedFeatures for the dispatcher.

+ * voxel whose FeatureId is <= 0, tallies its (up to 6) face-connected neighbors and,
+ * for voxels whose FeatureId is strictly negative (i.e. actually flagged for removal),
+ * commits the majority Feature's data into that voxel across every kept cell array.
+ *
+ * @section why_rolling_window Why a rolling window
+ * FeatureIds votes are read one Z-slice at a time via copyIntoBuffer into three buffers
+ * (prevSlice/curSlice/nextSlice), exactly as ComputeBoundaryCellsScanline does. This
+ * avoids per-voxel operator[] on the (potentially out-of-core) FeatureIds store, which
+ * would otherwise trigger a chunk load for nearly every voxel -- especially costly for
+ * the +/-Z neighbors, which are a full Z-slice away in the flat index space.
+ *
+ * @section bounded_marks Bounded per-slice marks
+ * Every vote computed here targets the CURRENT voxel's own slot only -- this algorithm
+ * never writes a mark into a neighbor's slot (unlike ErodeDilateBadData's dilate mode).
+ * That means slice z's marks are fully resolved the instant z's XY scan completes, so
+ * only two O(sliceSize) buffers are needed: curMarks (being filled for the slice just
+ * scanned) and prevMarks (fully resolved, awaiting commit). The commit for prevMarks is
+ * deferred by one Z-slice -- mirroring the sibling rolling-window algorithms
+ * (ErodeDilateBadData, FillBadDataCCL) -- purely so the read (vote) side of the
+ * algorithm never has to reason about a write that raced ahead of it: by the time
+ * prevMarks is committed, every vote that could ever have read that slice's original
+ * FeatureIds value has already been computed from the in-memory rolling window, which
+ * never re-reads a slice from disk after it has advanced past it. Writes therefore stay
+ * strictly behind the slice the read frontier still needs, with memory bounded to two
+ * slice-sized buffers regardless of the dataset's total voxel count.
+ *
+ * @section tie_breaking Tie-breaking fidelity
+ * The 6 face neighbors are checked in the SAME order as the Direct algorithm
+ * (-Z, -Y, -X, +X, +Y, +Z, matching NeighborUtilities' initializeFaceNeighborInternalIdx
+ * for Image3D) using the SAME discovered-features/hit-count bookkeeping, so that ties
+ * (multiple candidate Features reaching the same vote count) resolve identically: the
+ * first candidate to reach a given count wins and is not displaced by a later candidate
+ * that only ties it.
+ *
+ * @param imageGeom Geometry defining the voxel grid dimensions.
+ * @param featureIdsStore FeatureIds data store (read for votes; written via voxelArrays).
+ * @param voxelArrays Every kept cell-level array (including FeatureIds itself, unless
+ *   the user explicitly ignored it) that must receive the winning neighbor's data.
+ * @param shouldCancel Cooperative cancellation flag, checked once per Z-slice.
+ * @param messageHelper Used to build a throttled progress messenger.
+ * @return true if any voxel with FeatureId <= 0 was found (mirrors the Direct
+ *   algorithm's "shouldLoop" result, including background/id==0 voxels that are
+ *   never actually filled -- see the class-level Doxygen comment).

+/**
+ * @class RemoveFlaggedFeaturesScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core (OOC) optimized algorithm for removing/extracting flagged Features
+ * using Z-slice rolling-window bulk I/O.
+ *
+ * **The problem this solves**: The Direct algorithm's "fill removed features" loop scans
+ * the full volume once per outer iteration to vote on a replacement Feature for every
+ * removed voxel (IdentifyNeighbors), then scans it again to copy the winning neighbor's
+ * data into place (FindVoxelArrays). Both passes use operator[] with a 6-face-neighbor
+ * stencil whose +/-Z offset is a full Z-slice away. When FeatureIds is stored out-of-core
+ * in chunked format, this triggers a chunk load/evict cycle for nearly every voxel access,
+ * repeated for every do-while iteration until every removed voxel is resolved.
+ *
+ * **How the rolling window solves it**: This variant fuses the vote and data-transfer
+ * passes into a single Z-slice sweep, entirely with sequential, chunk-aligned bulk I/O:
+ *
+ *   - FeatureIds votes are read one Z-slice at a time via a 3-slice rolling window
+ *     (prevSlice/curSlice/nextSlice), exactly mirroring ComputeBoundaryCellsScanline's
+ *     approach. This window is advanced purely in memory (std::swap) plus one disk read
+ *     per Z-slice for the newly-needed "ahead" slice; a slice already visited is never
+ *     re-read from disk, so every vote sees the FeatureIds state as it was at the start
+ *     of the current do-while iteration, never a value written earlier in the same
+ *     iteration.
+ *   - Because every vote in this algorithm targets the *current* voxel's own slot (never
+ *     a neighbor's slot, unlike ErodeDilateBadData's dilate mode), a slice's marks are
+ *     fully resolved the instant that slice's XY scan completes. The data-transfer
+ *     (commit) for a slice is deferred by exactly one Z-slice -- writing strictly behind
+ *     the read frontier -- and reuses the shared SliceBufferedTransferOneZ utility (see
+ *     simplnx/Utilities/SliceBufferedTransfer.hpp) to apply the marks to every kept cell
+ *     array.
+ *
+ * **Memory footprint**: the per-slice marks (curMarks/prevMarks) are two
+ * `std::vector<int64>` sized to one Z-slice (O(sliceSize), 16 bytes/voxel-column). No
+ * allocation in this algorithm scales with the total voxel count. All FeatureIds/
+ * companion array reads and writes remain sequential, chunk-aligned bulk I/O.
+ *
+ * @see RemoveFlaggedFeaturesDirect for the in-core variant.
+ * @see RemoveFlaggedFeatures for the dispatcher.
+ * @see DispatchAlgorithm for the selection mechanism.

+/**
+ * @file ReplaceElementAttributesWithNeighborValues.cpp
+ * @brief Threshold-based neighbor replacement algorithm, optimized for
+ *        out-of-core (OOC) data stores via Z-slice buffered I/O.
+ *
+ * ## High-Level Flow (per pass)
+ *
+ * 1. **Initialize rolling window** -- Load input array Z-slices 0 and 1
+ *    into slots 1 (current) and 2 (next) of the three-element window.
+ *
+ * 2. **Scan every voxel** (Z-major, then Y, then X):
+ *    - If the voxel's value fails the threshold comparison (e.g., confidence
+ *      index < 0.1), examine its 6 face neighbors via the rolling window.
+ *    - Among neighbors that pass the threshold, track the one with the
+ *      best (most favorable) value.
+ *    - Record that neighbor's global index in the per-slice mark array.
+ *
+ * 3. **Immediate per-slice transfer** -- After each Z-slice's XY scan
+ *    completes, commit the marks via SliceBufferedTransferOneZ for every
+ *    array in the Attribute Matrix. This is safe because the marks for
+ *    this algorithm always point to face neighbors (within +/- 1 Z-slice),
+ *    and the best-neighbor mark only writes to the current voxel (not
+ *    across slices like dilation does).
+ *
+ * 4. **Repeat** -- If Loop is true and any voxels were modified, start a
+ *    new pass. Re-read the rolling window because transfers changed values.
+ *
+ * ## Comparison Functors
+ *
+ * The algorithm supports two comparison modes via a polymorphic functor:
+ * - **LessThanComparison**: Targets voxels whose value < threshold. Prefers
+ *   neighbors with the highest value (closest to passing).
+ * - **GreaterThanComparison**: Targets voxels whose value > threshold. Prefers
+ *   neighbors with the lowest value.
+ *
+ * Each functor provides three comparison methods:
+ * - `compare(value, threshold)`: Does this voxel fail the threshold?
+ * - `compare1(neighborValue, threshold)`: Does this neighbor pass?
+ * - `compare2(neighborValue, bestSoFar)`: Is this neighbor better than the
+ *   current best?

- * @class
+ * @class ReplaceElementAttributesWithNeighborValues
+ * @brief Iteratively replaces voxel data that fails a threshold comparison with
+ *        the best-scoring face-neighbor value, optimized for out-of-core (OOC)
+ *        data stores.
+ *
+ * ## Algorithm Overview
+ *
+ * 1. For each voxel whose value fails the threshold test (less-than or
+ *    greater-than the user's cutoff), examine its 6 face neighbors.
+ * 2. Among neighbors that pass the threshold, find the one with the
+ *    best (highest or lowest, depending on comparison direction) value.
+ * 3. Mark that voxel to be replaced by the best neighbor's data.
+ * 4. After scanning a Z-slice, commit the marks by copying tuple data from
+ *    source to destination for ALL arrays in the Attribute Matrix.
+ * 5. If Loop is true, repeat until no failing voxels remain.
+ *
+ * Unlike the ErodeDilateBadData algorithm (which only marks voxels within
+ * +/- 1 Z-slice via face neighbors), this algorithm's marks are strictly
+ * within the current Z-slice: a failing voxel is replaced by one of its
+ * own face neighbors, so the source is always within +/- 1 Z of the
+ * destination. This allows each Z-slice to be committed immediately after
+ * processing rather than being deferred.
+ *
+ * ## OOC Optimization Strategy
+ *
+ * 1. **3-slice rolling window for the input array**: Three Z-slices of the
+ *    comparison array (prev, current, next) are held in typed buffers loaded
+ *    via copyIntoBuffer(). All face-neighbor comparisons index into these
+ *    buffers rather than the OOC store.
+ *
+ * 2. **Per-slice best-neighbor marks**: A single O(sliceSize) mark array
+ *    tracks the best replacement source for each voxel in the current
+ *    Z-slice. Marks are committed immediately via SliceBufferedTransferOneZ
+ *    and then cleared for the next slice.
+ *
+ * 3. **Type-dispatched via ExecuteDataFunction**: The inner algorithm is
+ *    templated on the input array's element type to avoid virtual dispatch
+ *    overhead during the tight comparison loop. The template also handles
+ *    the std::vector<bool> bit-packing issue by using unique_ptr<T[]> for
+ *    all buffer types.
+ *
+ * 4. **Per-pass re-read**: Each pass re-loads the rolling window from the
+ *    store because the previous pass's SliceBufferedTransferOneZ calls
+ *    may have changed the comparison array's values.

+ * @section ooc_optimization Out-of-Core Optimization
+ * Two operations were converted to out-of-core-friendly bulk I/O:
+ *
+ * **removeFeaturesUnderNeighborThreshold()**: The original per-element setValue(-1) loop for marking
+ * removed features triggered a chunk operation per voxel. The optimized version reads FeatureIds in
+ * 64K-tuple chunks via copyIntoBuffer(), rewrites the buffer in place, and writes back only modified
+ * chunks via copyFromBuffer(). The same pass also fuses the feature-id renumber: surviving voxels are
+ * remapped to their compacted id (via the shared ComputeFeatureRenumbering mapping) and removed voxels
+ * are set to -1. Because this pass already remaps FeatureIds, operator() passes
+ * cellFeatureIdsRenumbered=true to RemoveInactiveObjects, eliminating its separate full-volume
+ * renumber read+write.
+ *
+ * **assignBadVoxels()**: The original per-element getValue() voting loop caused chunk thrashing across
+ * the whole volume on every convergence iteration, and used an O(n_cells) dense neighbor-index vector.
+ * The optimized version uses a rolling 3-slice buffer so all 6 face-neighbor reads come from local
+ * memory, tracks changed voxels and their chosen neighbors in compact sparse vectors (O(bad voxels),
+ * never O(n_cells)), and captures a bounded in-memory working set on the first pass so later passes
+ * vote entirely in memory with no disk re-read (falling back to the rolling-window disk scan if the
+ * working set would exceed a fixed RAM cap). The transfer phase dispatches one ChunkedTransferWorker
+ * per cell-level array via ParallelTaskAlgorithm; each worker does Z-batched bulk I/O to replace
+ * per-voxel copyTuple() with a small number of HDF5 chunk operations.

+ * @section ooc_optimization Out-of-Core Optimization
+ * Two operations were optimized:
+ *
+ * **removeSmallFeatures()**: The original per-element setValue(-1) loop for marking
+ * removed features caused a chunk operation per voxel. The optimized version reads
+ * FeatureIds in 64K-tuple chunks via copyIntoBuffer(), modifies the buffer in-place,
+ * and writes back only modified chunks via copyFromBuffer().
+ *
+ * **assignBadVoxels()**: The original per-element getValue() in the voting loop caused
+ * chunk thrashing across the entire volume on every iteration. The optimized version
+ * uses a rolling 3-slice buffer: for each Z-slice, the current slice and its Z-neighbors
+ * are in memory so all 6 face-neighbor reads come from local buffers. The buffer slides
+ * forward one slice at a time. Changed voxels and their chosen neighbors are tracked in
+ * compact parallel sparse vectors (O(bad_voxels), not O(n_cells)) — the earlier dense
+ * per-voxel index vector has been removed. The transfer phase dispatches one
+ * ChunkedTransferWorker per cell-level array via ParallelTaskAlgorithm; each worker
+ * does Z-batched bulk I/O (copyIntoBuffer + in-memory edits + copyFromBuffer) to
+ * replace per-voxel copyTuple() with a small number of HDF5 chunk operations.

+/**
+ * @file SurfaceNetsDirect.cpp
+ * @brief In-core implementation of the SurfaceNets algorithm using the MMSurfaceNet library.
+ *
+ * This file delegates cell classification, vertex placement, and optional
+ * smoothing to the MMSurfaceNet library, which operates on the full padded
+ * grid in memory. The algorithm then extracts quads from edge crossings,
+ * triangulates them, and writes the output TriangleGeom.
+ *
+ * The MMSurfaceNet library accesses the FeatureIds array via operator[], which
+ * is efficient for in-memory DataStores but would cause severe chunk thrashing
+ * on OOC stores. This is why SurfaceNetsScanline exists as an alternative.
+ *
+ * ## Phases
+ *
+ * Phase 1: MMSurfaceNet constructs a padded grid (dimX+2, dimY+2, dimZ+2) and
+ *          classifies each cell by examining its 8 corner labels. Surface cells
+ *          (where not all corners match) get vertices at cell centers.
+ *
+ * Phase 2: Optional smoothing via MMSurfaceNet::relax() moves vertices toward
+ *          neighbor averages, clamped to MaxDistanceFromVoxel.
+ *
+ * Phase 3: Vertex positions are transformed from local cell coordinates to
+ *          world coordinates using ImageGeom origin and spacing.
+ *
+ * Phase 4: First pass counts triangles by checking 3 edges per surface vertex.
+ *
+ * Phase 5: Second pass generates triangle connectivity and face labels.
+ *          Each edge crossing produces a quad (4 vertices), which is split
+ *          into 2 triangles using the minimal-area diagonal.
+ *
+ * Phase 6: Optional winding repair.

+ * @class SurfaceNetsDirect
+ * @brief In-core algorithm for SurfaceNets that delegates to the MMSurfaceNet
+ * library for cell classification and mesh generation.
+ *
+ * Selected by DispatchAlgorithm when all input arrays are backed by in-memory
+ * DataStore. This is the original algorithm implementation and serves as the
+ * reference for correctness.
+ *
+ * The algorithm runs in six phases:
+ *   1. **Build surface net** -- MMSurfaceNet classifies every cell in a padded
+ *      grid (dimX+2, dimY+2, dimZ+2), identifying surface cells where the 8
+ *      corner labels are not all identical. Each surface cell gets a vertex.
+ *      Uses operator[] to read FeatureIds, which is fast for in-memory stores.
+ *
+ *   2. **Smooth surface net** (optional) -- Iterative relaxation moves vertices
+ *      toward the average of their face-connected neighbors, clamped to stay
+ *      within MaxDistanceFromVoxel of their cell center.
+ *
+ *   3. **Transform vertices** -- Converts local cell-relative positions to
+ *      world coordinates using the ImageGeom origin and spacing.
+ *
+ *   4. **Count triangles** -- Iterates surface vertices, checking 3 edges per
+ *      cell (BackBottom, LeftBottom, LeftBack) for crossings that produce quads.
+ *      Each quad becomes 2 triangles.
+ *
+ *   5. **Generate triangles** -- Second pass that writes triangle connectivity,
+ *      face labels, and runs TupleTransfer for cell/feature data.
+ *
+ *   6. **Winding repair** (optional) -- Fixes inconsistent triangle orientations.
+ *
+ * Memory: O(volume) for the MMCellMap internal data structure (one Cell per
+ * padded voxel). This is the main reason the Scanline variant exists.
+ *
+ * @see SurfaceNetsScanline for the OOC-optimized variant

+/**
+ * @file SurfaceNetsScanline.cpp
+ * @brief Out-of-core (OOC) optimized implementation of the SurfaceNets algorithm.
+ *
+ * This file reimplements the Surface Nets algorithm without using the MMSurfaceNet
+ * library (which requires O(volume) memory and per-element FeatureIds access).
+ * Instead, it reads FeatureIds via copyIntoBuffer() in Z-slice pairs and stores
+ * only the O(surface) cells that actually have vertices.
+ *
+ * ## Key Differences from SurfaceNetsDirect
+ *
+ * 1. **No MMSurfaceNet/MMCellMap**: The Direct variant delegates cell classification
+ *    to MMSurfaceNet, which allocates a Cell for every padded voxel (O(volume)).
+ *    The Scanline variant performs cell classification inline using MMCellFlag
+ *    directly, storing only surface cells in a vector + hash map (O(surface)).
+ *
+ * 2. **FeatureIds access**: Direct passes the full array to MMSurfaceNet which
+ *    reads via operator[]. Scanline reads two Z-slices at a time via
+ *    copyIntoBuffer() and resolves cell corner labels from the buffered slices
+ *    using the cornerLabel() helper.
+ *
+ * 3. **Smoothing**: Direct delegates to MMSurfaceNet::relax() which operates on
+ *    the full MMCellMap. Scanline performs smoothing on the O(surface) m_Vertices
+ *    array using neighbor lookups through the m_CellToVertex hash map.
+ *
+ * 4. **Edge quad generation**: Direct uses MMCellMap::getEdgeQuad() which looks
+ *    up neighboring cells in the O(volume) cell array. Scanline uses
+ *    lookupVertex() to find neighbors in the O(surface) hash map.
+ *
+ * 5. **Output writes**: Direct writes per-element. Scanline buffers all output
+ *    (triangle connectivity, face labels, vertex positions, node types) and
+ *    flushes via copyFromBuffer() in bulk.
+ *
+ * ## Memory Comparison
+ *
+ * For a 500x500x500 dataset with ~1% surface cells:
+ *   - Direct (MMCellMap): ~500^3 * sizeof(Cell) = O(125M) entries
+ *   - Scanline: ~500^3 * 0.01 = O(1.25M) entries + hash map overhead
+ *
+ * The Scanline variant uses roughly 100x less memory for cell classification.

+ * @class SurfaceNetsScanline
+ * @brief Out-of-core (OOC) optimized algorithm for SurfaceNets.
+ *
+ * Selected by DispatchAlgorithm when any input array is backed by chunked
+ * (OOC) storage. Produces identical output to SurfaceNetsDirect but avoids
+ * the O(volume) MMCellMap allocation and per-element FeatureIds access.
+ *
+ * ## OOC Strategy
+ *
+ * The key insight is that the Surface Nets cell classification only needs
+ * the 8 corner labels of each cell, which span at most 2 adjacent Z-slices.
+ * The scanline variant exploits this by:
+ *
+ *   - **Bulk I/O**: Reading FeatureIds two Z-slices at a time via
+ *     copyIntoBuffer() with a rolling ping-pong buffer. Each cell's 8
+ *     corner labels are resolved from the two buffered slices.
+ *
+ *   - **O(surface) storage**: Instead of allocating one Cell per padded
+ *     voxel (the O(volume) MMCellMap), this algorithm stores only the
+ *     surface cells -- those where not all 8 corner labels are identical.
+ *     Surface cells are stored in m_Vertices (a vector of VertexInfo) and
+ *     m_CellToVertex (a hash map from padded cell coordinate to vertex index).
+ *     For typical datasets, surface is O(n^{2/3}) vs O(n) for volume.
+ *
+ *   - **Self-contained smoothing**: The relaxation is performed entirely on
+ *     the O(surface) vertex data using neighbor lookups through m_CellToVertex,
+ *     without needing the full MMCellMap.
+ *
+ *   - **Buffered output writes**: Triangle connectivity, face labels, and
+ *     vertex coordinates are accumulated in local buffers and flushed via
+ *     copyFromBuffer() in bulk.
+ *
+ * ## Phases
+ *
+ *   1. **Cell classification** (operator() main loop) -- Iterates padded cells
+ *      in Z-slice order, reads 8 corner labels from rolling slice buffers,
+ *      computes MMCellFlag for each cell, stores surface cells in m_Vertices.
+ *
+ *   2A. **Smoothing** (optional) -- Iterative relaxation using face-connected
+ *       neighbor positions looked up from m_CellToVertex. Same convergence
+ *       behavior as MMSurfaceNet::relax() but operates on O(surface) data.
+ *
+ *   2B. **Vertex transform** -- Converts local cell-relative positions to
+ *       world coordinates and assigns node types from MMCellFlag junction counts.
+ *
+ *   3A. **Triangle counting** -- Iterates surface vertices checking 3 edges
+ *       per cell for crossings. Each crossing produces a quad = 2 triangles.
+ *
+ *   3B-3E. **Triangle generation** -- Second pass writes triangle connectivity,
+ *       face labels, and runs TupleTransfer. All output is buffered and flushed
+ *       in bulk via copyFromBuffer().
+ *
+ *   3F. **Winding repair** (optional) -- Same as SurfaceNetsDirect.
+ *
+ * Memory: O(surface_cells) for m_Vertices + O(surface_cells) for m_CellToVertex
+ * + O(triangle_count * 3) for output buffers.
+ *
+ * @see SurfaceNetsDirect for the in-core reference implementation

+ *
+ * @section overview Overview
+ * When QuickSurfaceMesh or SurfaceNets generates a triangle/quad mesh from a
+ * voxelized volume, each face sits between two cells. The face-level output
+ * arrays need to store the data from both adjacent cells (stored interleaved:
+ * [side0_comp0, side0_comp1, ..., side1_comp0, side1_comp1, ...]).
+ *
+ * @section ooc_optimization OOC Optimization: Batch Transfer Methods
+ * The original per-element transfer methods (quickSurfaceTransfer, surfaceNetsTransfer)
+ * use operator[] on the source and destination DataStore references. When the DataStore
+ * is backed by OOC chunked storage, each operator[] call may trigger a chunk load/evict
+ * cycle, making mesh generation extremely slow on large datasets.
+ *
+ * The batch methods (quickSurfaceTransferBatch, surfaceNetsTransferBatch) solve this by:
+ *   1. Scanning all records to find the bounding range of source cell indices and
+ *      destination face indices.
+ *   2. Performing a single copyIntoBuffer() to bulk-read the source range into a
+ *      local heap buffer.
+ *   3. Performing all tuple copies in-memory against the local buffers.
+ *   4. Performing a single copyFromBuffer() to bulk-write the destination range back.
+ *
+ * This reduces I/O from O(N) random accesses to O(1) sequential bulk operations per batch.
+ * Callers (e.g., QuickSurfaceMesh) accumulate records for a batch of faces and flush
+ * them periodically (every ~65K faces) to bound memory usage.

+ * @brief Typed implementation of AbstractTupleTransfer for feature-level to face-level transfer.
+ *
+ * Unlike TransferTuple which copies cell data directly, this class performs an indirection
+ * through a FeatureIds array: cell index -> featureId -> feature-level data -> face output.
+ * This is used when surface mesh faces need feature-level attributes (e.g., average
+ * orientations, average C-axis values) rather than raw cell-level data.
+ *
+ * @section ooc_batch OOC Batch Methods
+ * The batch methods follow the same 4-phase pattern as TransferTuple but with an
+ * additional data source:
+ *   - Phase 1: Scan records for cell index range and face index range.
+ *   - Phase 2: Bulk-read the FeatureIds for the cell range (1 copyIntoBuffer call).
+ *   - Phase 3: Bulk-read the entire feature-level data array (typically small -- tens
+ *     of thousands of features vs. millions of cells). This is cached entirely since
+ *     feature IDs can map to any feature.
+ *   - Phase 4: Process all records in-memory: look up featureId from the cell buffer,
+ *     then copy the feature data into the face destination buffer.
+ *   - Phase 5: Bulk-write the destination face data (1 copyFromBuffer call).
+ *
+ * Total OOC I/O: 3 bulk operations instead of 3*N per-element accesses.
+ *
+ * @tparam T The element type of the feature-level source and face-level destination DataArrays.
+ * @tparam K The element type of the FeatureIds array (typically int32).

+ * @brief Bucket every FeatureIds element into its owning grain's Abaqus element-id list.
+ *
+ * The Abaqus ELSET format requires every grain's element ids to be written together as
+ * one contiguous list, so *some* grouping by grain is unavoidable. The original
+ * implementation obtained that grouping by rescanning the entire FeatureIds array once
+ * per grain (`O(grains * cells)`), which on an out-of-core array meant re-issuing chunked
+ * HDF5 reads for every single grain -- for a real dataset with thousands of grains this
+ * amounted to thousands of full-volume passes.
+ *
+ * This performs the grouping with a single bounded-chunk pass over FeatureIds
+ * (`O(cells)` total, `O(chunkSize)` RAM), pushing each element's flat cell index into its
+ * grain's bucket. The resulting `elementsByGrain` buckets sum to `O(cells)` heap memory,
+ * which is acceptable here because the output ELSET file itself is `O(cells)` -- grouping
+ * the element ids by grain is inherent to what this file writer produces.
+ *
+ * @param filter Owning filter, used to emit throttled progress messages
+ * @param featureIds Cell-level FeatureIds store to read (may be in-memory or OOC-backed)
+ * @param maxGrainId Highest grain id present in featureIds (bucket count is maxGrainId + 1)
+ * @param shouldCancel Cancellation flag, checked once per chunk

+ * @class EmptyStringStore
+ * @brief A metadata-only placeholder for AbstractStringStore, analogous to
+ * EmptyDataStore for numeric arrays.
+ *
+ * EmptyStringStore records tuple shape (number and layout of strings) but
+ * holds no actual string data. It exists because:
+ *
+ * 1. **Preflight-style imports:** When loading a .dream3d file's
+ *    DataStructure in metadata-only mode (e.g., for file inspection or
+ *    pipeline validation), StringArray objects need a store that reports
+ *    correct tuple counts without allocating or reading string data.
+ *
+ * 2. **Out-of-core workflows:** When the OOC import path builds the
+ *    DataStructure skeleton, string arrays are initially populated with
+ *    EmptyStringStore instances. A subsequent backfill step replaces each
+ *    EmptyStringStore with a real StringStore that contains the loaded
+ *    data.
+ *
+ * All data access methods (operator[], at, getValue, setValue, operator=)
+ * throw std::runtime_error to fail fast if code accidentally tries to read
+ * or write string data before the backfill step has run.
+ *
+ * @see StringStore The concrete store that holds real string data.
+ * @see EmptyDataStore The equivalent placeholder for numeric DataArrays.

+ * This is the standard way to allocate a ListStore (the backing store for

+ * the format is resolved through ArrayCreationUtilities::ResolveStorageFormat:

+ * lower-bound estimate to the resolver. The unstructured-geometry gate and the

+ * cutoff stays in-core.

+ * @brief Shared logic for LoadDataStructure and LoadDataStructureArrays.
+ *
+ * Builds a metadata skeleton, then either eager-loads everything in-core (the default) or, when a
+ * registered IO manager declares it finalizes imports (the out-of-core manager), defers loading to that
+ * manager via the DataIOCollection::onImportFinalize fan-out followed by a core Empty-sweep that
+ * materializes any placeholders the finalizer left behind.
+ *
+ * When @p resolver is non-null it is stamped onto the DataStructure immediately after construction and
+ * BEFORE the finalize pass runs, so the finalizer can consult dataStructure.formatResolver() to decide
+ * per-array storage — e.g. attaching disk-backed out-of-core stores for read-only visualization loads. A null
+ * resolver leaves the process-level default in place, preserving the original behavior.
+ *
+ * Follows the same pattern as ImportH5ObjectPathsAction::apply:
+ * 1. Preflight-import to get the metadata skeleton (importStructure)
+ * 2. Expand paths to include ancestors, sorted shortest-first
+ * 3. Insert each object via LoadDataObjectFromHDF5 (shallow copy + insert + optional data load)
+ * 4. When a finalizer is registered, run onImportFinalize, then sweep remaining Empty placeholders in-core

+// =============================================================================
+//
+// This method segments voxels into features using a scanline-based
+// connected-component labeling algorithm. It processes voxels in strict Z-Y-X
+// scanline order, which yields sequential data-store access patterns and keeps
+// the working set bounded to a rolling two-slice window regardless of volume
+// size.
+//
+// The algorithm has three phases:
+//
+// Phase 1 (Forward CCL):
+//   Scan voxels in Z-Y-X order. For each valid voxel, examine only its
+//   "backward" neighbors — those already visited earlier in scanline order.
+//   If a backward neighbor has a label and is similar (per areNeighborsSimilar),
+//   adopt that label. If multiple distinct labels are found among backward
+//   neighbors, unite them in a Union-Find structure. If no backward neighbor
+//   matches, assign a fresh provisional label. Labels are written to both an
+//   in-memory rolling buffer (for fast neighbor lookups) and to the OOC
+//   featureIds store (for persistence).
+//
+// Phase 1b (Periodic boundary merge):
+//   If periodic boundaries are enabled, Phase 1 cannot detect connections
+//   that wrap around the volume (the wrapped neighbor has a higher linear
+//   index and hasn't been visited yet). This phase reads back provisional
+//   labels and unites similar voxels on opposite boundary faces.
+//
+// Phase 2 (Resolution + Relabeling):
+//   Flatten the Union-Find tree, then scan the featureIds store slice by
+//   slice in Z-Y-X order. For each provisional label, look up its Union-Find
+//   root and map it to a contiguous final feature ID. Write the final ID
+//   back in the same pass. This combined discover-and-write approach halves
+//   the number of OOC accesses compared to separate resolution and write
+//   passes, and slice-sequential iteration ensures optimal I/O.

+ * @brief Type-dispatched functor that performs Z-slice buffered tuple transfer for a single DataArray.
+ *
+ * @section ooc_motivation OOC Motivation
+ * Morphological fill algorithms (FillBadData, ErodeDilateCoordinationNumber, etc.) use a
+ * "neighbors" mapping where each voxel stores the global index of the voxel it should copy
+ * data from. When the underlying DataStore is out-of-core (OOC), accessing elements via
+ * operator[] triggers chunk load/evict cycles -- one for the source read AND one for the
+ * destination write -- for every single voxel. On large datasets this makes the algorithm
+ * 100-1000x slower than in-memory.
+ *
+ * @section approach Approach: 3-Slot Rolling Window
+ * Because face-neighbor morphological algorithms only ever copy from a source voxel that
+ * is within +/-1 Z-slice of the destination, we can exploit this locality:
+ *
+ *   1. Maintain a rolling window of 3 source-slice buffers: slot 0 = z-1, slot 1 = z, slot 2 = z+1.
+ *   2. For each Z-slice, bulk-read the destination slice into a local buffer.
+ *   3. For each voxel in the slice that needs copying, look up the source from the
+ *      appropriate slot (already in memory) and copy into the destination buffer.
+ *   4. Bulk-write the modified destination slice back.
+ *   5. Advance the rolling window: swap slots, read the next z+1 slice.
+ *
+ * This reduces OOC I/O from O(N) random element accesses to O(dimZ) sequential bulk reads/writes,
+ * where each bulk operation transfers an entire slice in one copyIntoBuffer/copyFromBuffer call.
+ *
+ * @section memory Memory Footprint
+ * 4 slices worth of element data: 3 source slots + 1 destination buffer.
+ * For a 1024x1024 float32 array, that is approximately 16 MB -- trivial compared to
+ * the full volume which could be many GB.
+ *
+ * @section bool_handling bool Specialization
+ * std::vector<bool> is bit-packed and cannot provide a contiguous T* pointer, so
+ * BufferType uses std::unique_ptr<bool[]> for bool and std::vector<T> for everything else.

+ *   1. Compute which Z-slice the source voxel is on (must be within +/-1 of destZ).
+ *   2. Lazily load that source Z-slice if not already in memory.

+ *   4. Bulk-write the destination slice back when done.
