Abstract. This paper deals with the theory and applications of spatially-variant mathematical morphology. We formalize the definition of spatially variant dilation/erosion and ope...
This paper addresses the problem of lip segmentation in color space, which is a crucial issue to the success of a lip-reading system. We present a new segmentation approach to lip ...
—A vast number of historical and badly degraded document images can be found in libraries, public, and national archives. Due to the complex nature of different artifacts, such p...
This paper presents a morphological scale-space approach to the problem of feature extraction. The method relies on two steps: a hierarchical simplification step based on pyramids...
