Mathematical Morphology
The recent successful use of mathematical morphology in real time industrial
applications of noise removal, background normalization, shape recognition,
object flaw detection, and object feature extraction
has made a number of researchers take notice,
further explore, and use these techniques. Most of the real-time
video-rate machines employed on the factory floor now have included
in their operation set the morphological operations. This theoretical
and experimental project
is developing the engineering design methodology by which an optimal
morphological operation processing sequence can be determined to extract a
given kind of shape information from an image given the noise characteristics
and expected occlusions to which the shape might be subject.
