Apodization is a technique used in various fields such as optics, signal processing, and imaging to modify the amplitude of a signal or light wave in order to reduce artifacts, improve resolution, or enhance overall quality. The term itself derives from the Greek word "apodizein," which means "to make devoid of." In optics, for example, apodization can be applied to the shaping of the aperture through which light passes.
