This paper introduces a novel image-dependent filtering approach derived from concepts
known in mathematical morphology and aiming at edge-preserving smoothing of natural …

A new multi-scale graph-space connectivity framework is presented. It is based upon a
measure of dissimilarity between adjacent elements of the graph that is used to construct a …

Constrained connectivity relations partition the image definition domain into maximal
connected components complying to a series of input constraints such as local and global …

The complete lattice Π (E) of partitions of a space E has been extended into Π*(E), the one of
partial partitions of E (where the space covering axiom is removed). We recall the main …

For complex very-high-resolution satellite images, relevant image structures do not all
correspond to image regional extrema, but also to plateaus with intermediate intensity …

Our first paper introduced block splitting operators on the complete lattice of partial
partitions, studied their algebraic properties and characterized block splitting openings …

In this paper, we introduce a novel image-dependent filtering approach derived from
concepts known in mathematical morphology. Like other adaptive methods, it assumes that …

The alpha-tree is a versatile algorithm for color image segmentation employing attribute
constraints to control the partitioning of the alpha-connected image space. Attribute …

This paper addresses the problem of edge-preserving smoothing of natural images. A novel
adaptive approach as a preprocessing stage in feature extraction and/or image …

Search-centric, sample supervised image segmentation has been demonstrated as a viable
general approach applicable within the context of remote sensing image analysis. Such an …
