About this title

Synopsis:

From a strict semantic point of view, nonlinear image processing encompasses all image processing that is not based on linear operators; however, from a practical, evolutionary point of view, the name itself is usually associated with the study of nonlinear filters, mainly the deterministic and nondeterministic analysis and design of logic-based operators. This Tutorial Text volume explores logic-based operators with emphasis on representation, design, and statistical optimization of nonlinear filters. <P> Contents: <BR>- Basic Binary Operations<BR>- Binary Filtering with Opening and Closing <BR>- Representation of Binary Operators<BR>- Gray-Scale Morphological Operators <BR>- Median and Order Statistics <BR>- Stack Filters <BR>- Statistical Properties of Median-type and Stack Filters <BR>- Optimization of Weighted Median Filters <BR>- Optimal Binary Filters <BR>- Some Particular Nonlinear Filters
