Abstract
The most commonly used morphological procedure for estimating size distribution of image components is the granulometry proposed by Matheron (1978). Sometimes this method requires some a priori knowledge of image component shape and fails to produce satisfactory results on certain images when the image components are non-flat. A new method (using morphological area-open) is proposed which is simple, more straightforward and the size distribution obtained is more informative
