59 // <synopsis>
60 // This class takes a smoothing kernel type and a width, and
61 // generates a Vector holding that kernel. It can be used
62 // in conjunction with the separable image convolver,
63 // SepImageConvolver
64 //
65 // The kernels can be normalized so that the peak of the
66 // kernel is 1, or 1/area under the kernel. The latter ensures
67 // conservation of integrated pixel value (the usual jargon
68 // is conservation of flux for images) and is the default.
