Anti-Fusion: Understanding Pixel Blending in Image Processing & Electronics

Anti-fused describes two adjacent pixels or groups of pixels which have been combined into a single visual component (pixel, polygon, etc,) that has the average or interpolated visual qualities of the previous two distinct elements. Typically applied in image processing with regards to image reduction as part of data manipulation to reduce overall data quantity.

Also applied when referring to integrated electronics to describe the process of connecting separate electrical junctions which were previously split and isolated (disconnected). Thus fusing them as one solid and seamless element, as to allow increased conductivity.
