Module Description
This Module is the BatchMake version of Gaussian Blur module. It convolves an image with a Gaussian kernel wherein the Gaussian has a standard deviation specified by the user (GUI field "sigma") and the kernel width in each dimension is 6 times the standard deviation of the Gaussian.
Usage
Input volume = <grayscale image>
Output volume = <new image>
Sigma = <std dev of gaussian for convolution>
Examples, Use Cases & Tutorials
- Use to reduce noise
Quick Tour of Features and Use
- Set the sigma value to control the amount of blur. Larger sigma = more blur.
