51  * A parallel variant is available, enable with setNumberOfThreads. Default is non-parallel.
52  *
53  * The algorithm works as follows:
54  * <ol>
55  * <li> randomly select samples from the cloud, just as many as needed to determine a model
56  * <li> compute the coefficients of the model from the samples
57  * <li> count how many points of the cloud belong to the model, given a threshold. These are called inliers
58  * <li> repeat until a good model has been found or a max number of iterations has been reached
59  * <li> return the model with the most inliers
60  * </ol>
