Abstract

The application of adaptive (i.e., data-dependent) mathematical morphology techniques to range imagery, i.e., the use of structuring elements (SEs) that automatically adjust to the gray-scale values in a range image in order to deal with features of known physical sizes, is discussed. The technique is applicable to any type of image for which the distance to a scene element is available for each pixel
