What Gaussian Blur radius is used in the Turing pattern workflow?
In the Turing pattern workflow, the Gaussian Blur filter is applied with a Radius of 3.0 Pixels. This step smooths the initial random field before binarization and edge enhancement, reducing high-frequency randomness so that later thresholding can produce larger coherent black-and-white regions.
Conditions
- Applied to the current grayscale image layer.
- Part of the repeated filter cycle for pattern generation.
Reasoning, step by step
- Open Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur.
- Set the Radius to 3.0 Pixels.
- Observe the preview making the noise visibly softer.
Example
The Gaussian Blur dialog shows Radius: 3.0 Pixels, and the preview makes the noise visibly softer.
Common misconceptions
- Assuming the blur radius is the same as the Unsharp Mask radius (which is 200.0 Pixels in a later step).
