/**
 * A base layer for SequenceLastInstanceLayer/AverageLayer/MaxLayer.
 *
 * Input: one or more sequences. Each sequence contains some instances.
 * If SequenceLevel = kNonSeq:
 *    Output: output size is the number of input sequences (NOT input instances)
 *    output[i] = seqlastin/average/max_{for each instance in this
 * sequence}{input[i]}
 *    If stride_ > 0:
 *        Check input sequence must not have sub-sequence
 *        Output: a shorten sequence. Stride is the step size by which we slide
 *                a window upon the input sequence, and the pooling operation
 *                is then applied to each interval independently.
 * If SequenceLevel = kSeq:
 *    Check input sequence must has sub-sequence
 *    Output: output size is the number of input sub-sequences
 *    output[i] = seqlastin/average/max_{for each instance in this
 * sub-sequence}{input[i]}
 *
 * The config file api is pooling_layer.
