/** \class GreaterImageFilter
 * \brief Implements the Greater logical operator pixel-wise between two images.
 *
 * This class is parametrized over the types of the two 
 * input images and the type of the output image. 
 * Numeric conversions (castings) are done by the C++ defaults.
 *
 * 
 * The total operation over one pixel will be
 *
 *  output_pixel = static_cast<OutputPixelType>( input1_pixel > input2_pixel )
 *
 * Where ">" is the equality operator in C++.
