Room for the TutorialGeschrieben am 04.11.23 von Kristina Schaefer The tutorials will take place in seminar room 3 in building E.2.5 (also called U11) starting on the 06.11.23. |
Lectures Slides with 1 Slide per PageGeschrieben am 03.11.23 von Kristina Schaefer After a request in yesterday's lecture, I have added a second category of slides in the materials section of the CMS. You can now download the slides with 1 or 2 slides per page, depending on your personal preference. |
Mathematical Morphology in Image Analysis
Course Description
Mathematical morphology is a powerful class of images processing methods based on shape information of image objects. Its techniques have been applied successfully to a variety of image processing tasks including image denoising, segmentation, skeletons and many more. This lectures gives an introduction to a variety of morphological techniques.
The course is designed as a supplement for image processing lectures, to be attended before, after or parallel to them. After the lecture, participants should understand the foundations of classical and PDE-based morphology and be able to apply morphological operators to image processing tasks.
