Suppress salt and pepper noise.
The operator mean_sp carries out a smoothing by averaging the values. Only the gray values within the interval from MinThresh to MaxThresh are averaged. Gray values which are too light or too dark are ignored during summation. If no gray value lies within the default interval during summation the original gray value is adopted. If the thresholds are set at 0 or 255, respectively, the operator mean_sp behaves like mean__ except for the running time.
The operator mean_sp is used to suppress extreme gray values (salt and pepper noise = white and black dots).
If even values instead of odd values are given for MaskHeight or MaskWidth, the routine uses the next larger odd values instead (this way the center of the filter mask is always explicitly determined).
