Dilation (morphology) — Dilation is one of the basic operations in mathematical morphology. Originally developed for binary images, it has been expanded first to grayscale images, and then to complete lattices. The dilation operation usually uses a structuring element… … Wikipedia
Closing (morphology) — The closing of the dark blue shape (union of two squares) by a disk, resulting in the union of the dark blue shape and the light blue areas. In mathematical morphology, the closing of a set (binary image) A by a structuring element B is the… … Wikipedia
Opening (morphology) — The opening of the dark blue square by a disk, resulting in the light blue square with round corners. In mathematical morphology, opening is the dilation of the erosion of a set A by a structuring element B: where … Wikipedia
Erosion (morphology) — Erosion is one of two fundamental operations (the other being dilation) in Morphological image processing from which all other morphological operations are based. It was originally defined for binary images, later being extended to grayscale… … Wikipedia
Granulometry (morphology) — In mathematical morphology, granulometry is an approach to compute a size distribution of grains in binary images, using a series of morphological opening operations. It was introduced by Georges Matheron in the 1960 s, and is the basis for the… … Wikipedia
Pruning (morphology) — The pruning algorithm is a technique used for digital image processing based on mathematical morphology. It is used as a complement to the skeleton and thinning algorithms to remove unwanted parasitic components.The process in itself will remove… … Wikipedia
