<h2><a href="../../api/MagickCore/effect_8c.html" id="AdaptiveBlurImage">AdaptiveBlurImage</a></h2>

We blur the image with a Gaussian operator of the given radius and standard deviation (sigma).  For reasonable results, radius should be larger than sigma.  Use a radius of 0 and AdaptiveBlurImage() selects a suitable radius for you.</p>

<p>DespeckleImage() reduces the speckle noise in an image while perserving the edges of the original image.  A speckle removing filter uses a complementary hulling technique (raising pixels that are darker than their surrounding neighbors, then complementarily lowering pixels that are brighter than their surrounding neighbors) to reduce the speckle index of that image (reference Crimmins speckle removal).</p>
