Abstract:Abstract. Connected attribute filters are morphological operators widely used for their ability of simplifying the image without moving its contours. In this paper, we present a fast, versatile and easy-to-implement algorithm for grayscale connected attribute thinnings and thickennings, a subclass of connected filters for the wide range of non-increasing attributes. We show that our algorithm consumes less memory and is computationally more efficient than other available methods on natural images, for strictly… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
