Similar smoothing effect can be achieved by using spatial filters (spatial masks‚ kernels‚ templates‚ or windows). We discussed that a spatial filter consists of a neighborhood and a pre-defined operation performed on the image pixels defining the neighborhood. The

What promotes exponential growth? What constrains population growth? Exponential growth is not limited to growth‚ which to me could lead to a bad thing. Exponential growth could lead to fewer resources they have available. Logistic growth has a limit to it compared to exponential growth does not. I think
