    * Enhanced the TOA radiance computation for WV2 by integrating the effective bandwidth

  * Learning
    * Improved ListSample generation
      * Added support for interior rings
      * Fixed support for class minimum size
    * Added a filter for classification map regularization by majority voting

  * Segmentation
    * Added segmentation algorithm based on multiscale morphological structures classification

  * OBIA
    * Added a filter to compute mean radiometric values for each segment of a labeled image

  * Visualization
    * Added a method to change RegionGlComponent color in ImageView
    * Moved layer description in a single place

  * Applications
    * Framework
