This study introduces connected operators for image filtering, preserving contour information by merging flat zones. Novel generalizations enhance texture analysis and reduce signal leakage, offering efficient solutions.

Area of Science:

  • Image processing
  • Computer vision
  • Mathematical morphology

Background:

  • Connected operators are valuable for image filtering due to their ability to preserve contour information by merging flat zones.
  • Traditional connected operators have limitations in handling texture and can exhibit significant signal leakage.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a structured representation, the max-tree, for efficient processing of antiextensive connected operators.
  • To generalize connected operators for improved texture analysis and reduced leakage.
  • To explore simplification criteria and efficient algorithmic solutions for operator implementation.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing the max-tree as a structured representation for connected operator processing.
  • Analyzing and modifying connectivity definitions to incorporate texture handling.
