The use of first-order structuring-element libraries to design morphological filters Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • 1992 IEEE. Statistically optimized morphological filters are preferable to those traditionally selected by humans. Nevertheless, full optimization has been shown to be computationally intractable. By applying first-order knowledge to select a predetermined structuring-element library upon which to apply optimization, we can greatly reduce design computation, while at the same time producing good filters. The present paper sets down a paradigm for library optimization and also presents a methodology for first-order-library construction. Experimental results depicted herein illustrate the goodness of the estimations.
