From the backcover:
Mathematical morphology (MM) or simply morphology can be defined as a
theory for the analysis of spatial structures. It is called morphology
because it aims at analysing the shape and form of objects. MM is not
only a theory, but also a powerful image analysis technique.
The purpose of this book is to provide the reader with a detailed
presentation of the principles and applications of morphological image
analysis. This is achieved through a step by step process starting from
the basic morphological operators and pursued until the most recent
advances which have proven their practical usefulness. All concepts are
illustrated with real applications to help the reader acquiring the
expert knowledge necessary for building the chain of operators to
resolve his/her own image analysis problem. The emphasis is therefore
put on the technique rather than the theory underlying MM.
This volume will be valuable to all engineers, scientists, and
practitioners dealing with the analysis of digital images.
