| Abstract: | A new image segmentation method is presented. It is based on mathematical derivations stemming from both mathematical morphology and fractal geometry. Structures of different nature are most often characterized by a fractal grey tone function, in a certain range of resolutions, with a particular value of the fractal dimension. Our method allows the isolation of such structures. It only requires a series of dilated and eroded grey tone images. |
