A grayscale image created from gaussian noise.
Gaussian noise is statistical noise that has its probability density function equal to that of the normal distribution, which is also known as the Gaussian distribution.[1] In other words, the values that the noise can take on are Gaussian-distributed. A special case is white Gaussian noise, in which the values at any pair of times are identically distributed and statistically independent (and hence uncorrelated). In applications, Gaussian noise is most commonly used as additive white noise to yield additive white Gaussian noise.
