/** \class CheckerBoardImageFilter
 * \brief Combines two images in a checkerboard pattern.
 *
 * CheckerBoardImageFilter takes two input images that must have the same
 * dimension, size, origin and spacing and produces an output image of the same
 * size by combinining the pixels from the two input images in a checkerboard
 * pattern. This filter is commonly used for visually comparing two images, in
 * particular for evaluating the results of an image registration process.
 *
 * This filter is implemented as a multithreaded filter. It provides a
 * ThreadedGenerateData() method for its implementation.
