/** \class BinaryBallStructuringElement
 * \brief A Neighborhood that represents a ball structuring element
 *       (ellipsoid) with binary elements.
 *
 * This class defines a Neighborhood whose elements are either off or on
 * depending on whether they are outside or inside an ellipsoid whose
 * radii match the radii of the Neighborhood.  This class can be used
 * as a structuring element for the Morphology image filters.
 *
 * A BinaryBallStructuringElement has an N-dimensional \em radius.
 * The radius is defined separately for each dimension as the number
 * of pixels that the neighborhood extends outward from the center
 * pixel.  For example, a 2D BinaryBallStructuringElement object with
 * a radius of 2x3 has sides of length 5x7.
 *
 * BinaryBallStructuringElement objects always have an unambiguous
 * center because their side lengths are always odd.
 *
 * Internally, this class carries out all of its computations using the
 * FlatStructuringElement.  It is preferable to use that class instead
 * of this one because FlatStructuringElement is more flexible.
