Quantization Method
K-Means: Groups pixels into clusters by minimizing color distance. Produces a perceptually even color distribution. Very accurate results.
// Pre-Processing▼
Convolution Filter
Smooth (Gaussian): Applies a 3×3 Gaussian blur before tracing. Removes pixel jitter and noise, producing far fewer unnecessary path nodes in the final SVG.
Strength 0.50
