Abstract

Distinguished regions can be detected with high repeatability in different images of the same scene. Two definitions of distinguished regions of an image in a mathematical morphology framework are proposed: one based on the use of reconstruction operators on a series of cross sections of a greyscale image, and the second based on extracting regions present in a large number of levels of a watershed segmentation hierarchy. The proposed distinguished regions are evaluated by measuring their repeatability in transformed images of the same scene.
