/** \brief Pose estimation and alignment class using a prerejective RANSAC routine.
 *
 * This class inserts a simple, yet effective "prerejection" step into the standard
 * RANSAC pose estimation loop in order to avoid verification of pose hypotheses
 * that are likely to be wrong. This is achieved by local pose-invariant geometric
 * constraints, as also implemented in the class
 * \ref registration::CorrespondenceRejectorPoly "CorrespondenceRejectorPoly".
 *
 * In order to robustly align partial/occluded models, this routine performs
 * fit error evaluation using only inliers, i.e. points closer than a
 * Euclidean threshold, which is specifiable using \ref setInlierFraction().
 *
 * The amount of prerejection or "greedyness" of the algorithm can be specified
 * using \ref setSimilarityThreshold() in [0,1[, where a value of 0 means disabled,
 * and 1 is maximally rejective.
 *
