Abstract

Morphological feature extraction allows obtaining a feature vector that can be used in pattern recognition. It is a two stage process, based on the extraction of morphological spatial classes and class distribution functions in order to obtain a feature vector. In this paper, we discuss two ways of considering directionality within this process. The first approach is based on division of the image space into sectors, in which the spatial classes are computed. The second makes use of directional structuring element used by morphological operators. Example applications and test results are also presented in the paper.
