/**
 * -------------------------------Purpose---------------------------------------
 * To show the spatial pooling learning algorithm is good at producing the same
 * output of neural activity even when the input is very noisy.
 *
 * ------------------------------Experiment-------------------------------------
 * Run the spatial pooling algorithm on 3 different bitmap images. The 3 images
 * are both of the same thing but 1 of the images has no noise, 1 image has some
 * noise, and 1 image has a lot of noise.
 *
 * ------------------------------Conclusion-------------------------------------
 * The spatial pooling algorithm does simple local computations on it's input to
 * remove noise very efficiently up to a specific threshold that can vary
 * between locations in the input.
