/**
 * In mathematical morphology, the closing of a set A by a structuring element B is the erosion of the dilation of that set (Wikipedia).
 * In image processing, closing is, together with opening, the basic workhorse of morphological noise removal.
 * Opening removes small objects, while closing removes small holes.
