/** \class MorphologicalGradientImageFilter
 * \brief Morphological gradients enhance the variation of pixel intensity in a given neighborhood.
 *
 * The morphological gradient, also called the Beucher gradient, is the
 * difference between the dilation and erosion by the structuring element.
 * Morphological gradient is described in Chapter 3.8.1 of Pierre Soille's book 
 * "Morphological Image Analysis: Principles and Applications", 
 * Second Edition, Springer, 2003.
 * According to this book, this filter can produce thick gradients, by
 * increasing the size of the structuring element. Also, direcitonal
 * gradiebts are possible by replacing the isotropic structuring
 * element with a line segment.
 * The name might be MorphologicalGradientMagnitudeImageFilter, but we
 * chose to name the filter according to Pierre Soille's usage in the book.
 *
 * Note: This filter produces a scalar image that is the magnitude of
 * the gradient.
