Abstract :
Mathematical morphology is the analysis of signals and images in terms of shape. Much is based on simple positive Boolean functions that are used to produce filters for binary and greyscale signals and images. In a previous development, the standard operators are applied to connected sets that form maxima and minima. These are new, powerful, general tools for analysing and representing images
