Conservative Smoothing.

Conservative smoothing is a noise reduction technique that derives its name from the fact that it employs a simple, fast filtering algorithm that sacrifices noise suppression power in order to preserve the high spatial frequency detail (e.g. sharp edges) in an image. It is explicitly designed to remove noise spikes --- i.e. isolated pixels of exceptionally low or high pixel intensity (e.g. salt and pepper noise).

Supported types: Grayscale, RGB.
Coordinate System: Matrix.
