"""Compute the convex hull image of a binary image.
The convex hull is the set of pixels included in the smallest convex
polygon that surround all white pixels in the input image.
Parameters
----------
image : ndarray
Binary input image. This array is cast to bool before processing.
Returns
-------
hull : ndarray of uint8
Binary image with pixels in convex hull set to 255.
