   \class AlgoThreshold
   This class implements threshold algorithm to AlgoThreshold class.
   The algorithm defines a pulse in user-specified time window.
   A typical usage is to set the beginning of the window to be 0 (= start of the waveform)
   and integrate over the time of interest. By default, the ending is set to index=0, in
   which case it uses the ending index of the input waveform (i.e. full integration).
