 # ncolor
-Fast remapping of intance labels 1,2,3,...,M to N repeating, disjoint labels, 1,2,3,...,N. The four-color-theorem guarantees that at most four colors is required for any 2D segmentation/map, but this algorithm will opt for 5 or 6 to give an acceptable result quickly. Also works for 3D labels (<8 colors typically required) and perhaps higher dimensions as well.
