 * \class VectorMeanImageFunction
 * \brief Calculate the mean value in the neighborhood of a pixel in a Vector image.
 *
 * Calculate the mean pixel value over the standard 8, 26, etc. connected
 * neighborhood.  This calculation uses a ZeroFluxNeumannBoundaryCondition.
 *
 * If called with a ContinuousIndex or Point, the calculation is performed
 * at the nearest neighbor.
 *
 * This class is templated over the input image type and the
 * coordinate representation type (e.g. float or double).
