    r"""
    Adopt a value based on the values in neighboring pores

    Parameters
    ----------
    target : OpenPNM Object
        The object which this model is associated with. This controls the
        length of the calculated array, and also provides access to other
        necessary properties.

    pore_prop : string
        The dictionary key to the array containing the pore property to be
        used in the calculation.  Default is 'pore.seed'.

    mode : string
        Controls how the throat property is calculated.  Options are 'min',
        'max' and 'mean'.
