However, if the intention is to characterize or quantify continuous-domain objects, then the discrete-domain morphology is affected by discretization errors that may be alleviated by considering the underlying continuous signal. Given a band-limited image, for example, a real image projected through a lens system, which has been correctly sampled, the continuous signal may be reconstructed. Using information from the continuous signal when applying morphology to the discrete samples can then aid in approximating the continuous morphology. Additionally, there are a number of applications where MM would be useful and the data is irregularly sampled. A common way to deal with this is to resample the data onto a regular grid. Often this creates problems where data is interpolated in areas with too few samples. In this paper, an alternative way of thinking about the morphological operators is presented. This leads to a new type of discrete operators that work on irregularly sampled data. These operators are shown to be morphological operators that are consistent with the regular, morphological operators under the same conditions, and yield accurate results under certain conditions where traditional morphology performs poorly.","PeriodicalId":244328,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Morphology - Theory and Applications","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122646451","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hierarchical segmentation has emerged as a major trend in this regard as it favors the emergence of important regions at different scales. On the other hand, many methods allow us to have prior information on the position of structures of interest in the images. In this paper, we present a versatile hierarchical segmentation method that takes into account any prior spatial information and outputs a hierarchical segmentation that emphasizes the contours or regions of interest while preserving the important structures in the image. Several applications are presented that illustrate the method versatility and efficiency.","PeriodicalId":244328,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Morphology - Theory and Applications","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122036117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They have the ability to adapt to local image structures,which allows them to detect lines that are not perfectly straight. They are applicable in extracting cracks, roads, and similar structures. Although path openings are very efficient to implement for binary images, the greyscale case is more problematic. This study provides an analysis of the main existing greyscale algorithm, and shows that although its time complexity can be quadratic in the number of pixels, this is optimal in terms of the output (if the full opening transform is created). Also, it is shown that under many circumstances the worst-case running time is much less than quadratic. Finally, a new algorithm is provided,which has the same time complexity, but is simpler, faster in practice and more amenable to parallelization","PeriodicalId":244328,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Morphology - Theory and Applications","volume":"108 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127959373","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Until recently, attribute filtering was based on a single global threshold on a scalar property to remove or retain objects. A single threshold struggles in case no single property or attribute value has a suitable, usually multi-modal, distribution. Vector-attribute filtering allows better description of characteristic features for 2D images. In this paper, we apply vector-attribute filtering to 3D and incorporate unsupervised pattern recognition, where connected components are classified based on the similarity of feature vectors. Using a single attribute allows multi-thresholding for attribute filters where more than two classes of structures of interest can be selected. In vector-attribute filters automatic clustering avoids the need for either setting very many attribute thresholds, or finding suitable class prototypes in 3D and setting a dissimilarity threshold. Explorative visualization reduces to visualizing and selecting relevant clusters. We show that the performance of these new filters is better than those of regular attribute filters in enhancement of objects in medical images.","PeriodicalId":244328,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Morphology - Theory and Applications","volume":"28 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132193514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Automatic extraction of astronomical objects is therefore needed. SExtractor is a widely used program for automated source extraction and cataloguing, but it is not optimal with faint extended sources. Using SExtractor as a reference, the paper describes an improvement of a previous method proposed by the authors. It is a Max-Tree-based method for extraction of faint extended sources without using a stronger image smoothing. The Max-Tree structure is a hierarchical representation of an image, in which attributes can be computed in every node. Object detection is performed on the nodes of the tree and it relies on the distribution of a statistic calculated using the power attribute, compared to the expected distribution in case of noise. Statistical tests are presented, a comparison with the object extraction of SExtractor is shown and results are discussed.","PeriodicalId":244328,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Morphology - Theory and Applications","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123956030","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this purpose, we have applied the concept of attribute space and connectivity to the binary images produced by charged particles passing through the tracking detector for the future experiment PANDA. This detector could be considered as an undirected graph with irregular neighbourhood relations. For this project, we rely only on the detector geometry. In addition, we have extended the graph to estimate the z-coordinates of the particle paths. The result is an O(n2), proof of concept algorithm with a total error of approximately 0.17; this value depends on track multiplicity and particle type and its parameters. The results look promising; however, more work needs to be done to make this algorithm applicable for the real-life case.","PeriodicalId":244328,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Morphology - Theory and Applications","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128570776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigate the properties of the quantile and gradient filters and their links to dilation and erosion operators. Using amoeba structuring elements,we devise image-adaptive versions of our quantile and gradient filters.

This type of images requires the introduction of the notion of partial order of grey levels, together with the definition of sup and inf operators. More generally, mathematical morphology is now described within the context of the lattice theory. For a few decades, attempts are made to use mathematical morphology on multivariate images, such as color images, mainly based on the notion of vector order. However, none of these attempts has given fully satisfying results. Instead of aiming directly at the multivariate case we propose first an extension of binary mathematical morphology to an intermediary situation: images composed of a finite number of independent unordered labels. We propose then an second extension to a continuous case.","PeriodicalId":244328,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Morphology - Theory and Applications","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131288709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, mathematical morphology provides an elegant way to deal with periodic distributions. The case of possibility distributions is addressed using fuzzy mathematical morphology.
