// .NAME vtkStatisticsAlgorithm - Base class for statistics algorithms
//
// .SECTION Description
// All statistics algorithms can conceptually be operated with several options:
// * Learn: given an input data set, calculate a minimal statistical model (e.g., 
//   sums, raw moments, joint probabilities).
// * Derive: given an input minimal statistical model, derive the full model 
//   (e.g., descriptive statistics, quantiles, correlations, conditional
//    probabilities).
//   NB: It may be, or not be, a problem that a full model was not derived. For
//   instance, when doing parallel calculations, one only wants to derive the full
//   model after all partial calculations have completed. On the other hand, one
//   can also directly provide a full model, that was previously calculated or
//   guessed, and not derive a new one.
// * Assess: given an input data set, input statistics, and some form of 
//   threshold, assess a subset of the data set.
// * Test: perform at least one statistical test.
// Therefore, a vtkStatisticsAlgorithm has the following vtkTable ports
// * 3 input ports:
//   * Data (mandatory)
//   * Parameters to the learn phase (optional)
//   * Input model (optional) 
// * 3 output port (called Output):
//   * Data (annotated with assessments when the Assess option is ON).
//   * Output model (identical to the the input model when Learn option is OFF).
//   * Output of statistical tests. Some engines do not offer such tests yet, in
//     which case this output will always be empty even when the Test option is ON.
//
// .SECTION Thanks
// Thanks to Philippe Pebay and David Thompson from Sandia National Laboratories 
// for implementing this class.
