Composing morphological filters

Morphological Filters

A morphological lter is an increasing operator which is idempotent. This paper introduces the reader into the theory of morphological lters. It discusses openings and closings and alternating sequential lters. Furthermore it explains how to construct morphological lters by iteration. In this respect, an important class of morphological operators are the activity-extensive operators. The paper a...

Composing Multiple Concerns Using Composition Filters

ODIF for morphological filters

In this paper our recently introduced method called output distributional influence function (ODIF) is used for the evaluation of the robustness properties of the morphological filters. Several examples of the ODIFs for the dilation, the closing, and the clos-opening are given and explained carefully. For each of these morphological filters the effect of filter length is examined by using the O...

Realisation of Soft Morphological Filters

A new technique for the realisation of soft morphological filters based on the majority gate algorithm is presented in this paper. A pipelined systolic array architecture suitable to perform soft morphological filtering is also presented. The processing times of the proposed hardware structure do not depend on the data window size and the required silicon area is linearly related to the number ...
