  • Introduction to Mathematical Morphology
    COMPUTER VISION, GRAPHICS, AND IMAGE PROCESSING 35, 283-305 (1986) Introduction to Mathematical Morphology JEAN SERRA E. N. S. M. de Paris, Paris, France Received October 6,1983; revised March 20,1986 1. BACKGROUND As we saw in the foreword, there are several ways of approaching the description of phenomena which spread in space, and which exhibit a certain spatial structure. One such approach is to consider them as objects, i.e., as subsets of their space of definition. The method which derives from this point of view is. called mathematical morphology [l, 21. In order to define mathematical morphology, we first require some background definitions. Consider an arbitrary space (or set) E. The “objects” of this :space are the subsets X c E; therefore, the family that we have to handle theoretically is the set 0 (E) of all the subsets X of E. The set p(E) is incomparably less arbitrary than E itself; indeed it is constructured to be a Boolean algebra [3], that is: (i) p(E) is a complete lattice, i.e., is provided with a partial-ordering relation, called inclusion, and denoted by “ c .” Moreover every (finite or not) family of members Xi E p(E) has a least upper bound (their union C/Xi) and a greatest lower bound (their intersection f7 X,) which both belong to p(E); (ii) The lattice p(E) is distributiue, i.e., xu(Ynz)=(XuY)n(xuZ) VX,Y,ZE b(E) and is complemented, i.e., there exist a greatest set (E itself) and a smallest set 0 (the empty set) such that every X E p(E) possesses a complement Xc defined by the relationships: XUXC=E and xn xc= 0.

  • Learning Deep Morphological Networks with Neural Architecture Search APREPRINT
    LEARNING DEEP MORPHOLOGICAL NETWORKS WITH NEURAL ARCHITECTURE SEARCH APREPRINT Yufei Hu Nacim Belkhir U2IS, ENSTA Paris, Institut Polytechnique de Paris Safrantech, Safran Group [email protected] [email protected] Jesus Angulo Angela Yao CMM, Mines ParisTech, PSL Research University School of Computing National University of Singapore [email protected] [email protected] Gianni Franchi U2IS, ENSTA Paris, Institut Polytechnique de Paris [email protected] June 16, 2021 ABSTRACT Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are generated by sequentially performing linear and non-linear processes. Using a combination of linear and non-linear procedures is critical for generating a sufficiently deep feature space. The majority of non-linear operators are derivations of activation functions or pooling functions. Mathematical morphology is a branch of mathematics that provides non-linear operators for a variety of image processing problems. We investigate the utility of integrating these operations in an end-to-end deep learning framework in this paper. DNNs are designed to acquire a realistic representation for a particular job. Morphological operators give topological descriptors that convey salient information about the shapes of objects depicted in images. We propose a method based on meta-learning to incorporate morphological operators into DNNs. The learned architecture demonstrates how our novel morphological operations significantly increase DNN performance on various tasks, including picture classification and edge detection. Keywords Mathematical Morphology; deep learning; architecture search. arXiv:2106.07714v1 [cs.CV] 14 Jun 2021 1 Introduction Over the last decade, deep learning has made several breakthroughs and demonstrated successful applications in various fields (e.g.

    Image thresholding During the thresholding process, individual pixels in an image are marked as “object” pixels if their value is greater than some threshold value (assuming an object to be brighter than the background) and as “background” pixels otherwise. This convention is known as threshold above. Variants include threshold below, which is opposite of threshold above; threshold inside, where a pixel is labeled "object" if its value is between two thresholds; and threshold outside, which is the opposite of threshold inside (Shapiro, et al. 2001:83). Typically, an object pixel is given a value of “1” while a background pixel is given a value of “0.” Finally, a binary image is created by coloring each pixel white or black, depending on a pixel's label. Image thresholding Sezgin and Sankur (2004) categorize thresholding methods into the following six groups based on the information the algorithm manipulates (Sezgin et al., 2004): • histogram shape-based methods, where, for example, the peaks, valleys and curvatures of the smoothed histogram are analyzed • clustering-based methods, where the gray-level samples are clustered in two parts as background and foreground (object), or alternately are modeled as a mixture of two Gaussians • entropy-based methods result in algorithms that use the entropy of the foreground and background regions, the cross-entropy between the original and binarized image, etc. • object attribute-based methods search a measure of similarity between the gray-level and the binarized images, such as fuzzy shape similarity, edge coincidence, etc. • spatial methods [that] use higher-order probability distribution and/or correlation between pixels • local methods adapt the threshold value on each pixel to the local image characteristics." Mathematical morphology • Mathematical Morphology was born in 1964 from the collaborative work of Georges Matheron and Jean Serra, at the École des Mines de Paris, France.

After learning about all the festivities being planned for the 40th anniversary celebrations at the University of Calgary, I felt the time was right to convert my thoughts to the written word as well. With that being said, this report should not be viewed as a detailed analysis of the complete history of the MacKimmie Library. Instead, it is intended to reflect major events in the Special Collections Division, and some of the more prominent additions that have found a home on the 12th floor, coupled with the personnel who have made these acquisitions possible.

Morphology is a general concept 2/55 In biology: the analysis of size, shape, inner structure (and relationship among them) of animals, plants and microorganisms. In linguistics: analysis of the inner structure of word forms. In materials science: the study of shape, size, texture and thermodynamically distinct phases of physical objects. In signal/image processing: mathematical morphology – a theoretical model based on lattice theory used for signal/image preprocessing, segmentation, etc. Mathematical morphology, introduction 3/55 Mathematical morphology (MM): is a theory for analysis of planar and spatial structures; is suitable for analyzing the shape of objects; is based on a set theory, integral algebra and lattice algebra; is successful due to a a simple mathematical formalism, which opens a path to powerful image analysis tools. The morphological way . The key idea of morphological analysis is extracting knowledge from the relation of an image and a simple, small probe (called the structuring element), which is a predefined shape. It is checked in each pixel, how does this shape matches or misses local shapes in the image. MM founding fathers 4/55 Georges Matheron (∗ 1930, † 2000) Jean Serra (∗ 1940) Matheron, G.
