- Median Stacking
This method is mostly used for dark/flat/offset stacking. The median value of the pixels in the stack is computed for each pixel. As this method should only be used for dark/flat/offset stacking, it does not take into account shifts computed during registration. The increase in SNR is proportional to [math]\displaystyle{ 0.8\sqrt{N} }[/math].
- Pixel Maximum Stacking
This algorithm is mainly used to construct long exposure star-trails images. Pixels of the image are replaced by pixels at the same coordinates if intensity is greater.
