/**
 * \class BinaryMorphologicalOpeningImageFilter
 * \brief binary morphological opening of an image.
 *
 * This filter removes small (i.e., smaller than the structuring
 * element) structures in the interior or at the
 * boundaries of the image. The morphological opening of an image
 * "f" is defined as:
 * Opening(f) = Dilatation(Erosion(f)).
 *
 * The structuring element is assumed to be composed of binary
 * values (zero or one). Only elements of the structuring element
 * having values > 0 are candidates for affecting the center pixel.
 *
