// The \doxygen{DiscreteGaussianImageFilter} computes the convolution of the
// input image with a Gaussian kernel. This is done in $ND$ by taking
// advantage of the separability of the Gaussian kernel. A one-dimensional
// Gaussian function is discretized on a convolution kernel. The size of the
// kernel is extended until there are enough discrete points in the Gaussian
// to ensure that a user-provided maximum error is not exceeded. Since the
// size of the kernel is unknown a priori, it is necessary to impose a limit to
// its growth. The user can thus provide a value to be the maximum admissible
// size of the kernel. Discretization error is defined as the difference
// between the area under the discrete Gaussian curve (which has finite
// support) and the area under the continuous Gaussian.
//
// Gaussian kernels in ITK are constructed according to the theory of Tony
// Lindeberg \cite{Lindeberg1994} so that smoothing and derivative operations
// commute before and after discretization. In other words, finite difference
// derivatives on an image $I$ that has been smoothed by convolution with the
// Gaussian are equivalent to finite differences computed on $I$ by convolving
// with a derivative of the Gaussian.
