gaussian blur
Image smoothing filter
Gaussian blur is an image-processing technique that softens or smooths an image by averaging each pixel with its neighbors according to a bell-curve distribution.
The effect reduces noise and detail, creating a natural-looking blur: Apply a gaussian blur to soften the background.
Named for mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss, it's fundamental in photo editing, computer graphics, and machine vision.
