The convolution kernel may have the size 2x2, 3x3 or 5x5. The filter coefficients need to be specified as an array of double values passed as the kernel argument. Please note that although the kernel elements are of type double, the filter will only work on and only create output data with 8 bits per pixel. Overflow and under- flow values will be truncated to 0 and 255 respectively. If too many kernel coefficients are given then any surplus coefficients will be ignored. The kernel coefficients should be passed as a 1D array with width * height elements starting in the top left corner of the filter mask and listing the elements line by line.
