Shape-only Granulometries and Gray-scale Shape Filters
نویسندگان
چکیده
Multiscale methods which provide a decomposition of an image based on scale have many uses in image analysis. One class of such methods from mathematical morphology is based on size distributions or granulometries. In this paper a different type of image decomposition based on shape but not scale is proposed. Called a shape granulometry or shape distribution, it is built from a family of morphological thinnings, rather than openings as in the case of size distributions. An implementation based on scale invariant attribute thinnings is presented, and an example of an application is shown.

Content-based Image Retrieval Using Shape-Size Pattern Spectra
This paper presents the results of using the shape, size and color features of an image for content-based image retrieval. The use of granulometries has been applied to model the size and shape of the connected components of the image. Granulometry are computed by successively sieving an image using filters of increasing size parameter so that information can be obtained about the components th...
متن کاملA mathematical morphology approach to cell shape analysis
Morphological analysis of cells (size, shape, texture, etc.) is fundamental in quantitative cytology. Anomalies and variations from the typical cell are associated with pathological situations, e.g., useful in cancer diagnosis, in cellbased screening of new active molecules, etc. Mathematical morphology is a nonlinear image processing technique based on minimum and maximum operations [SER82], i...

One of the main image representations in Mathematical Morphology is the 3D Shape Decomposition Representation, useful for Image Compression and Representation, and Pattern Recognition. The 3D Morphological Shape Decomposition representation can be generalized a number of times, to extend the scope of its algebraic characteristics as much as possible. With these generalizations, the Morphologica...

متن کاملActive Shape Models - Part I: Modeling Shape and Gray Level Variations
In this paper we review and investigate a method capable of modeling the different appearance of objects in images that is due to natural shape variations, varying lighting conditions, 3D pose and others. Objects are represented by well-defined landmark points and shape variations are modeled using a principal component analysis. Also, gray level variations are being modeled. The first part of ...
