Abstract

This lecture overviews Mathematical Morphology  that has many applications in digital image processing, analysis and computer vision. It covers the following topics in detail: Mathematical Morphology operations (Minkowski addition/subtraction, erosion, dilation, opening, closing), Greyscale Morphology, Skeletons, Shape Decomposition, Voronoi tessellation, Watershed transform.
