 Since we can think of an image as a matrix of color values, the convolution of that image with a kernel generates a new matrix with different color values.
 In particular, convolving images with a 2D Gaussian kernel changes the value of each pixel into a weighted average of the neighboring pixels, thereby smoothing out the features in the input image.
