A computer program that is intended to carry out nontrivial operations on texts in an ordinary language must start by recognizing the words that the text is made up of. This is the procedure I call morphological analysis. It is necessary because the linguistically interesting properties of words cannot be discovered by examining the words themselves but are associated with them in an essentiall...

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...

Many applications and practices of working with recorded sounds are based on the segmentation and concatenation of fragments of audio streams. In collaborations with composers and sound artists we have observed that a recurrent musical event or sonic shape is often identified by the temporal evolution of the sound features. We would like to contribute to the development of a novel segmentation ...

Understanding the processes involved in evolution of organisms is a principal topic that has received much attention from the research community. A common way to achieve this is to study the ecological conditions and morphological relationships of taxa. Fish are widely regarded as notable animal models in studies of environmental influence on morphological features given their high environmenta...

This article describes the morphological classification of languages in general linguistics, as well division all world into 4 groups: isolation or amorphous languages, agglutinative, inflectional and polysynthetic views linguists. Of these, Chinese, which is close to category, illustrated with examples.
