What is aliasing in image processing?

Sometimes called moiré or a glitch, aliasing is a phenomenon where a digital camera has trouble translating an intricate pattern. Aliasing can result in a number of odd visual artefacts in photos or videos.

What is the aliasing process?

Aliasing occurs when an oscilloscope does not sample the signal fast enough to construct an accurate waveform record. The signal frequency is misidentified, and the waveforms displayed on an oscilloscope become indistinguishable. Aliasing is basically a form of undersampling.

What is the purpose of aliasing?

In computing, aliasing describes a situation in which a data location in memory can be accessed through different symbolic names in the program. Thus, modifying the data through one name implicitly modifies the values associated with all aliased names, which may not be expected by the programmer.

What is aliasing and how can it be prevented?

Aliasing is characterized by the altering of output compared to the original signal because resampling or interpolation resulted in a lower resolution in images, a slower frame rate in terms of video or a lower wave resolution in audio. Anti-aliasing filters can be used to correct this problem.
