  1. LUSAC EA 2607 1 A graph approach to color mathematical

    morphology Olivier Lezoray, Cyril Meurie, Abderrahim Elmoataz University of Caen France IEEE Symposium on Signal Processing and Information Technology
  2. LUSAC EA 2607 2 Outline é Color Image Processing é Color Mathematical

    Morphology é Graph vector erosion and dilatation ò Determining the Æ and the Ç ? ò Proposed Algorithm ò Examples é Hierarchy of partitions ò Morphological gradient ò Non parametric watershed hierarchy é Conclusion
  3. LUSAC EA 2607 3 Color Image Processing é Very important area

    of research which is a particular case of the processing of multichannel images defined by a vector of scalar values é No natural ordering on a set of color vectors and more generally of multivariate data é several possible types of multidimensional vector ordering: ò marginal ordering, ò reduced ordering, ò partial ordering, ò conditional ordering, ò total ordering.
  4. LUSAC EA 2607 9 Color Mathematical Morphology (2) é Erosion and

    dilatation operations can be defined by : What is essential is to determine the two extreme values corresponding to the Ç and the Æ which are respectively higher and lower than all the other colors of the lattice
  5. LUSAC EA 2607 10 Determining the Æ and the Ç

    ? é Consider the structuring element B as a Region Adjacency Graph G0 where each pixel of B is a node of the graph é Total ordering : path from Æ to Ç é Solution :Prune the RAG to obtain such a path é The Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) of the RAG G0 is a good approximation
  6. LUSAC EA 2607 11 Proposed Algorithm é The MST is close

    to the wanted solution é Internal nodes cannot be potential Æ ot Ç é Only external nodes are potential candidates é This assumption can be used to build another graph from the leaves of the MST é The MST of this new graph can be again computed and so on until finding a two-node path é Æ : closest to a reference color
  7. LUSAC EA 2607 22 é We proposed a new method based

    on graph decimation for determining the inf and the sup of a set of colors : better results than lexicographic ordering é The traditional morphological definition of morphological gradient has been extended and new waterfall hierarchies can be obtained é Perspectives : ò Use the cascade of MSTs to find an ordering of colors ò Compare the proposed method with lexicographic and bit-mixing on different color spaces Conclusion
