Smoothing
Averaging pixels with their neighbors. It reduces contrast and simulates an out-of-focus image.
Smoothing - To blur the boundaries between tones of an image, usually to reduce a rough or jagged appearance.
Threshold - A predefined level used by scanners to determine whether a pixel will be represented as black or white.

Smoothing. To blur the boundaries between edges of an image, often to reduce a rough or jagged appearance.
Soft focus. A diffused, unsharp image effect produced by the use of a special lens that creates soft outlines.
Micro-smoothing smoothes out the changes introduced by micro-contrast. Think of micro-contast as determining the amount of contrast change and micro-smoothing as controlling the radius of those changes.
Smoothing texture is particularly challenging in Photoshop, but you can do it to a limited degree. Apply filters to duplicate layers. Experiment with the Blend Modes Lighten and Darken.
Smoothing water movement in waterfalls, rivers, oceans, etc.

12. Smoothing affects the dynamic range of highlights and shadows.
13. Temperature raises or lowers the temperature of the combined picture.
14. Saturation highlights/shadows increases or decreases the saturation of the highlights and shadows.
High Light Smoothing is generally more realistic while Low light smoothing creates an image that looks more computer generated. There is no right or wrong here. It is all in getting what YOU want from the image.
A method of smoothing out pixels' jagged edges using software.

Once again the Canon EOS 500D benefits far less from the switch from JPEG to raw than the GF1 (though taking Canon's texture smoothing noise reduction out of the equation does remove the slightly 'plastic' look from the shadow areas).

Thankfully, Bibble has a good noise/smoothing tool set including, noise, luma and color.
NIH Image supports many standard image-processing functions, such as contrast enhancement, density profiling, smoothing, sharpening, edge detection, median filtering, and spatial convolution with user-defined kernels.
Another method for reducing jaggies is called smoothing, in which the printer changes the size and horizontal alignment of dots to make curves smoother.
Antialiasing is sometimes called oversampling.
One thing makes DCEnhancer different from other tools - reducing the noise and skin smoothing algorithm. It makes DCE ideal for making cool portraits and close-ups!
First you have to find out the optimal settings for your camera.
Anti-aliasing
The process of reducing Stair-Stepping by smoothing edges where individual pixels are visible.
Anti-fogging agent
Constituent of a developer that inhibits or reduces fogging during development.
Also nice for smoothing out skin blemishes. One of the great things about these films is that labs in every corner of the world know how to make beautiful portrait prints from them.
This is the process whereby you can reduce the "Stepping" effect on your images, by smoothing the edges where individual edges are visible. A great program for correcting this is Genuine Fractals by LizardTech. It is a plug-in for Photoshop.
error diffusion
in electronic scanning, smoothing a rough area of a digital image by averaging the difference of adjoining pixels.
Used to calibrate devices, smoothing out any irregularities between input and output signals.

The Patch tool is good for larger areas or areas of unusual shape. It's rough though, so use it sparingly. Also check around the border of the area for hard edges that may need smoothing out.

To overcome this problem manufacturers have incorporated noise reduction systems into their cameras. These do reduce noise but also introduce a smoothing effect.
