/// \defgroup HE HE
/// \brief Contains implementation and description of the algorithm used to compute
///        global histogram equalization of input images.
///
///        Algorithm :-
///        1. If histogram A is to be equalized compute the cumulative histogram of A.
///        2. Let CFD(A) refer to the cumulative histogram of A
///        3. For a uniform histogram A', CDF(A') = A'
///        4. We need to transfrom A to A' such that
///        5. CDF(A') = CDF(A) => A' = CDF(A)
///        6. Hence the pixel transform , px => histogram_of_ith_channel[px].
