3D Perlin Noise

Perlin Noise is a procedural description of a noise-function.

Simple noise volume:

$f(x,y,z) = random(x,y,z) \in [-1,1]$

Interpolation of the noise volume yields a noise function with a carrier frequency of half the voxel distance.

Perlin Noise is the sum of noise-function with increasing carrier frequency and decreasing amplitude. Typically the frequency is doubled and the amplitude is halved. This is also known as turbulence function.
