Abstract

We introduce a discrete scheme using a morphological image processing approach. After briefly presenting the axiomatic approach of image processing and the mean curvature motion partial differential equation (PDE), the properties of the proposed scheme are studied. We show that this morphological scheme performs mean curvature evolution on a gray level image. Then we notice that the same scheme can be applied to forms. To conclude we present experimental results
