A directional morphological operation and its application to immunological image processing
نویسندگان
چکیده
A directional morphological operation can be performed by utilizing a rotational structuring element with a directional information, and its associated processing methods for overlapping and enclosing are proposed. As an example of overlapping method derived from the directional morphological operation, a distribution of high/low atmospheric pressures is obtained from the wind direction of weather report. The enclosing method obtained from the directional morphological operation is applied to a shape recognition system utilizing multi-ultrasonic sensor, and also this method is applied a immunological image processing which utilizes the function of self or non-self discrimination in immune system of a living body. From simulation and experimental results, it has been cleared that these methods are e ective for image to extract mutual relationship among data including directional information and that object categories are discriminated by applying directional morphological operation for immunological discrimination.

Background: Volume estimation of brain is important for many neurological applications. It is necessary in measuring brain growth and changes in brain in normal/abnormal patients. Thus, accurate brain volume measurement is very important. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the method of choice for volume quantification due to excellent levels of image resolution and between-tissue contrast. St...

In this paper, we introduce a multiscale operator which, together with some morphological tools, can be used to reconnect broken components of an image. This operator extracts the orientation field from the image components and can be applied to both binary and grayscale pictures. Although we illustrate its application in the fingerprint domain, the approach described here can be easily extende...
