       The MPSImageMedian applies a median filter to an image. A median filter finds the median color value for each channel within a
       kernelDiameter x kernelDiameter window surrounding the pixel of interest. It is a common means of noise reduction and also as a smoothing
       filter with edge preserving qualities.

       NOTE: The MPSImageMedian filter currently only supports images with <= 8 bits/channel.

Method Documentation
   - (nullable instancetype) initWithCoder: (NSCoder *__nonnull) aDecoder(nonnull id< MTLDevice >) device
       NSSecureCoding compatability  While the standard NSSecureCoding/NSCoding method -initWithCoder: should work, since the file can't know
       which device your data is allocated on, we have to guess and may guess incorrectly. To avoid that problem, use initWithCoder:device
       instead.

       Parameters:
	   aDecoder The NSCoder subclass with your serialized MPSKernel
	   device The MTLDevice on which to make the MPSKernel

       Returns:
	   A new MPSKernel object, or nil if failure.

       Reimplemented from MPSUnaryImageKernel.

   - (nonnull instancetype) initWithDevice: (nonnull id< MTLDevice >) device
       Standard init with default properties per filter type

       Parameters:
	   device The device that the filter will be used on. May not be NULL.

       Returns:
	   a pointer to the newly initialized object. This will fail, returning nil if the device is not supported. Devices must be
	   MTLFeatureSet_iOS_GPUFamily2_v1 or later.

       Reimplemented from MPSUnaryImageKernel.

   - (nonnull instancetype) initWithDevice: (nonnull id< MTLDevice >) device(NSUInteger) kernelDiameter
       Initialize a filter for a particular kernel size and device

       Parameters:
	   device The device the filter will run on
	   kernelDiameter Diameter of the median filter. Must be an odd number.

       Returns:
	   A valid object or nil, if failure.

   + (NSUInteger) maxKernelDiameter
       The maximum diameter in pixels of the filter window supported by the median filter.

   + (NSUInteger) minKernelDiameter
       The minimum diameter in pixels of the filter window supported by the median filter.

Property Documentation
   - kernelDiameter [read],  [nonatomic],  [assign]
       The diameter in pixels of the filter window.  The median filter is applied to a kernelDiameter x kernelDiameter window of pixels centered
       on the corresponding source pixel for each destination pixel. The kernel diameter must be an odd number.
