'''Smoothstep''' is a scalar [[interpolation]] function commonly used in [[computer graphics]]<ref>[http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb509658(VS.85).aspx Smoothstep at Microsoft Developer Network]</ref><ref>[http://www.opengl.org/registry/doc/GLSLangSpec.Full.1.40.05.pdf GLSL Language Specification, Version 1.40]</ref> and [[Game engine|video game engines]].<ref>[http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/ScriptReference/Mathf.SmoothStep.html Unity game engine SmoothStep documentation]</ref> The function interpolates [[Smooth function|smoothly]] between two input values based on a third one that should be between the first two. The returned value is clamped between 0 and 1.
 
The slope of the smoothstep function tends toward zero at both edgesThis makes it easy to create a sequence of transitions using smoothstep to interpolate each segment rather than using a more sophisticated or expensive interpolation technique.
 
As pointed out in [[Microsoft Developer Network|MSDN]] and [[OpenGL]] documentation, smoothstep implements cubic [[Hermite interpolation]] after doing a clamp:
 
:<math> \operatorname{smoothstep}(t) = 3t^2 - 2t^3 </math>
 
An example implementation provided by AMD<ref>[http://ati.amd.com/developer/SIGGRAPH03/ATI_HardwareShading_SIGGRAPH2003.pps ATI R3x0 Pixel Shaders]</ref> follows.
 
<source lang="c">
float smoothstep(float edge0, float edge1, float x)
{
    // Scale, bias and saturate x to 0..1 range
    x = saturate((x - edge0)/(edge1 - edge0));
    // Evaluate polynomial
    return x*x*(3 - 2*x);
}
</source>
 
== Variations ==
[[Ken Perlin]] suggests<ref>[http://www.amazon.com/Texturing-Modeling-Third-Procedural-Approach/dp/1558608486 Texturing and Modeling, Third Edition: A Procedural Approach]</ref> an improved version of the smoothstep function which has zero 1st and 2nd order derivatives at t=0 and t=1:
 
:<math> \operatorname{smootherstep}(t) = 6t^5 - 15t^4 + 10t^3 </math>
 
Reference implementation:
<source lang="c">
float smootherstep(float edge0, float edge1, float x)
{
    // Scale, and clamp x to 0..1 range
    x = clamp((x - edge0)/(edge1 - edge0), 0.0, 1.0);
    // Evaluate polynomial
    return x*x*x*(x*(x*6 - 15) + 10);
}
</source>
 
== Origin ==
 
=== 3rd order equation ===
 
We start with a generic third order [[polynomial]] function and its first [[derivative]]:
:<math>\begin{alignat}{9}
f(t)  &&\; = \;&&  a_3 t^3 &&\; + \;&& a_2 t^2 &&\; + \;&& a_1 t &&\; + \;&& a_0 & \\
f'(t) &&\; = \;&& 3 a_3 t^2 &&\; + \;&& 2 a_2 t &&\; + \;&& a_1 &
\end{alignat}</math>
 
Applying the desired values for the function at both endpoints we get:
:<math>\begin{alignat}{13}
f(0) &&\; = \;&& 0 \;\;\;\;\;&& \Rightarrow &&\;\;\;\;\;  0 \;&& + &&\;  0 \;&& + &&\;  0 \;&& + &&\; a_0 &&\; = \;&& 0 & \\
f(1) &&\; = \;&& 1 \;\;\;\;\;&& \Rightarrow &&\;\;\;\;\; a_3 \;&& + &&\; a_2 \;&& + &&\; a_1 \;&& + &&\; a_0 &&\; = \;&& 1 &
\end{alignat}</math>
 
Applying the desired values for the first derivative of the function at both endpoints we get:
:<math>\begin{alignat}{11}
f'(0) &&\; = \;&& 0 \;\;\;\;&& \Rightarrow &&\;\;\;\;    0 \;&& + &&\;    0 \;&& + &&\; a_1 \;&& = \;&& 0 & \\
f'(1) &&\; = \;&& 0 \;\;\;\;&& \Rightarrow &&\;\;\;\; 3 a_3 \;&& + &&\; 2 a_2 \;&& + &&\; a_1 \;&& = \;&& 0 &
\end{alignat}</math>
 
Solving the system of 4 unknowns formed by the last 4 equations we obtain the values of the polynomial coefficients:
:<math>a_0 = 0 , \;\;\;\;\;\; a_1 = 0 , \;\;\;\;\;\; a_2 = 3 , \;\;\;\;\;\; a_3 = -2</math>
 
Introducing these coefficients back into the first equation gives the third order smoothstep function:
:<math>f(t) = -2t^3 + 3t^2</math>
 
=== 5th order equation ===
 
We start with a generic fifth order [[polynomial]] function, its first derivative and its second derivative:
:<math>\begin{alignat}{13}
f(t)  &&\; = \;&&    a_5 t^5 &&\; + \;&&    a_4 t^4 &&\; + \;&&  a_3 t^3 &&\; + \;&&  a_2 t^2 &&\; + \;&& a_1 t &&\; + \;&& a_0 & \\
f'(t)  &&\; = \;&&  5 a_5 t^4 &&\; + \;&&  4 a_4 t^3 &&\; + \;&& 3 a_3 t^2 &&\; + \;&& 2 a_2 t  &&\; + \;&& a_1  & \\
f''(t) &&\; = \;&& 20 a_5 t^3 &&\; + \;&& 12 a_4 t^2 &&\; + \;&& 6 a_3 t  &&\; + \;&& 2 a_2    &
\end{alignat}</math>
 
Applying the desired values for the function at both endpoints we get:
:<math>\begin{alignat}{17}
f(0) &&\; = \;&& 0 \;\;\;\;\;&& \Rightarrow &&\;\;\;\;\;  0 \;&& + &&\;  0 \;&& + &&\;  0 \;&& + &&\;  0 \;&& + &&\;  0 \;&& + &&\; a_0 &&\; = \;&& 0 & \\
f(1) &&\; = \;&& 1 \;\;\;\;\;&& \Rightarrow &&\;\;\;\;\; a_5 \;&& + &&\; a_4 \;&& + &&\; a_3 \;&& + &&\; a_2 \;&& + &&\; a_1 \;&& + &&\; a_0 &&\; = \;&& 1 &
\end{alignat}</math>
 
Applying the desired values for the first derivative of the function at both endpoints we get:
:<math>\begin{alignat}{15}
f'(0) &&\; = \;&& 0 \;\;\;\;&& \Rightarrow &&\;\;\;\;    0 \;&& + &&\;    0 \;&& + &&\;    0 \;&& + &&\;    0 \;&& + &&\; a_1 \;&& = \;&& 0 & \\
f'(1) &&\; = \;&& 0 \;\;\;\;&& \Rightarrow &&\;\;\;\; 5 a_5 \;&& + &&\; 4 a_4 \;&& + &&\; 3 a_3 \;&& + &&\; 2 a_2 \;&& + &&\; a_1 \;&& = \;&& 0 &
\end{alignat}</math>
 
Applying the desired values for the second derivative of the function at both endpoints we get:
:<math>\begin{alignat}{15}
f''(0) &&\; = \;&& 0 \;\;\;\;&& \Rightarrow &&\;\;\;\;      0 \;&& + &&\;      0 \;&& + &&\;    0 \;&& + &&\; 2 a_2 \;&& = \;&& 0 & \\
f''(1) &&\; = \;&& 0 \;\;\;\;&& \Rightarrow &&\;\;\;\; 20 a_5 \;&& + &&\; 12 a_4 \;&& + &&\; 6 a_3 \;&& + &&\; 2 a_2 \;&& = \;&& 0 &
\end{alignat}</math>
 
Solving the system of 6 unknowns formed by the last 6 equations we obtain the values of the polynomial coefficients:
:<math>a_0 = 0 , \;\;\;\;\;\; a_1 = 0 , \;\;\;\;\;\; a_2 = 0 , \;\;\;\;\;\; a_3 = 10 , \;\;\;\;\;\; a_4 = -15 , \;\;\;\;\;\; a_5 = 6</math>
 
Introducing these coefficients back into the first equation gives the fifth order smoothstep function:
:<math>f(t) = 6t^5 - 15t^4 + 10t^3</math>
