The equivalent expression using conventional image processing notation would be:

1 if A (x, y) and B (x, y) are both 1
C (x, y) = (13
0 otherwise
This expression leads quite easily to a single MATLAB statement that perform

Fundamental concepts and operations
 Logical equivalents of set theory operations
The structuring element
 Examples:

square cross

 MATLAB functions
 strel
Dilation and erosion
 The two fundamental morphological image
operations.
 Dilation: a morphological operation whose
effect is to “grow” or “thicken” objects in a
binary image.
 The extent and direction of this thickening is
controlled by the size and shape of the structuring
element.
 Mathematically:
Dilation and erosion
 Dilation – geometrical interpretation
Dilation and erosion
 Dilation – MATLAB example

a = [0 0 0 0 0;
0 1 1 0 0;
0 1 1 0 0;
0 0 1 0 0;
0 0 0 0 0]

se1 = strel('square',2)
b = imdilate (a,se1)

se2 = strel('rectangle', [1 2])


c = imdilate (a,se2)
Dilation and erosion
 Erosion: a morphological operation whose effect is
to “shrink” or “thin” objects in a binary image.
 The direction and extent of this thinning is controlled
by the shape and size of the structuring element.

 Mathematically:
Dilation and erosion
 Erosion – geometrical interpretation

 Erosion– MATLAB example (13.4)

a = [ 0 0 0 0 0 ; 0 1 1 1 0; 1 1 1 0 0; 0 1 1 1 1; 0 0 0 0 0]
se1 = strel('square',2)
b = imerode (a,se1)

se2 = strel('rectangle', [1 2])


c = imerode (a,se2)
Dilation and erosion
 Erosion and dilation can be interpreted in terms of
whether a SE fits or hits an image (region)
