Abstract

This paper introduces a new operator named the iterated object transform that is computed by combining the object symmetry transform with the morphological operator erosion. This new operator has been applied on both binary and gray levels images showing the ability to grasp the internal structure of a digital object. We present also some experiments on artificial and real images and potential applications.
