Image feature extraction using coordinate logic filters

In this paper we present a method for image feature extraction using coordinate logic filters. Coordinate logic filters constitute a new kind of nonlinear filter, which are closely related to morphological fillers. The key issue to the coordinate logic analysis of images is the methodology of fast successive filtering and managing of the residues. The desired processing is succeeded by executing only direct logic operations among the pixels of the given image. The coordinate logic filters can be easily implemented using logic circuits or cellular automata
