Ultimate Attribute Opening Segmentation with Shape Information
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a method for morphological segmentation using shape information is presented. This method is based on a morphological operator named ultimate attribute opening (UAO). Our approach considers shape information to favor the detection of specific shapes. The method is validated in the framework of two applications: façade analysis and scene-text detection. The experimental results show that our approach is more robust than the standard UAO.

متن کاملUltimate Opening and Gradual Transitions
Ultimate Opening (UO) is a powerful operator based on numerical residues. In a multi-scale framework, it analyzes an image under a series of increasing openings. Contrasted objects are detected when they are filtered out by an opening, generating an important residue. Gradual transitions make this operator underestimate the contrast of blurred objects. In this paper we propose a solution to thi...
متن کاملShear Capacity of Reinforced Concrete Flat Slabs Made with High-strength Concrete: A Numerical Study of the Effect of Size, Location, and Shape of the Opening (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Nowadays, concrete with strength higher than 50 MPa is utilized due to the ever increasing need for higher strength and prolonged healing properties. Despite the widespread use of high-strength concrete, only a few research projects have been conducted on the punching shear strength of high-strength concrete slabs. Reinforced concrete flat slabs are widely employed in structural systems. The lo...
متن کاملFast Implementation of the Ultimate Opening
We present an efficient implementation of the ultimate attribute opening operator. In this implementation, the ultimate opening is computed by processing the image maxtree representation. To show the efficiency of this implementation, execution time is given for various images at different scales. A quasi-linear dependency with the number of pixels is observed. This new implementation makes the...
متن کاملImproving Cyclic Behavior of Steel Plate Shear Walls with Elliptical Perforations
In this paper, the effect of elliptical shape openings was numerically compared to the case when circular openings were used in the steel panel shear walls. At first, the finite element model in ABAQUS was calibrated by experimental results, obtained from previous studies. Then, three steel shear panels with different sizes of elliptical openings were analyzed under cyclic loads, and the result...
