DEMO_ADAPTLOOP - Show the effect of adaptation

Program code:

%DEMO_ADAPTLOOP  Show the effect of adaptation
%
%   This script demonstrates the effect of adaptation applied to a test
%   signal with and without noise.
%
%   The test signal is made of a sinosoidal ramp up and down between 0
%   and 1.
%
%   Figure 1: Clean test signal
%
%      This figure shows the effect of adaptation on the clean test signal with and
%      without overshoot limiting.
%
%   Figure 2: Noisy test signal
%
%      This figure shows the effect of adaptation on the noisy test signal
%      with and without overshoot limiting. Notice that in the second plot,
%      the initial spike at the beginning of the signal caused from the sharp
%      transition from complete silence to noise is magnitudes larger than
%      the values in the rest of the output.
