dithering
Error diffusion, or dithering, is a way of avoiding aliasing due to a cut-down palette size. If a colour cannot be matched exactly then the nearest colour is used and the difference remembered. Then on the next pixel the difference is added to the desired colour and the result matched to the nearest colour available. In this way a mid-blue, for example, might be represented by a scattering of dark blue and light blue, if that mid-blue were not available in the current palette.
抖动：错误扩散或者称为抖动，是一种防止调色板缩小尺寸时候产生混淆的方法。如果一种颜色无法被匹配，则使用离它最近的颜色代替并记录差异。继而在下一个像素添加该差异到期望的色彩，使得结果趋于理想。例如，使用该方法，如果当前调色板中没有蓝色时，就可能被散射的深蓝色和浅蓝色代替。
