- ronjouch 6y agoWorlds colliding :) . It's referring to image-manipulation technique https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_(shader_effect) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_(shader_effect) , not CS concept https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_filter https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_filter
- slashink 6y agoIt's a term for "light bloom" commonly used in rendering and games. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_(shader_effect) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_(shader_effect) You're right that it's not that related to a bloom filter data structure.
