// The FeatureChebyshev class implements a Bitmap feature extractor class. It
// inherits from the FeatureBase class
// The feature vector is the composed of the chebyshev coefficients of 4 time
// sequences. The time sequences are the left, top, right & bottom
// bitmap profiles of the input samples
