erode

Morphological erosion of binary images

Calling Sequence

E = erode(Img, [SE, center])

Parameters

Img: M x N Binary image to be eroded. (0 for background, 1 for object)
E: M x N Binary eroded image.
SE: Arbitrary structuring element represented as a binary array. Defaults to
center: origin of structuring element. Shold be within image dimensions. Defaults to the center of the SE array.

Description

Function erode performs morphological erosion of a binary image Img using SE as the structuring element.

Examples

initial_dir = PWD;
chdir (SIPDIR + 'images');

Img = gray_imread('disks2.bmp');
imshow(Img,2);
Img = 1-Img;
SE = ones(10,10);
e = erode(Img, SE);
clf
imshow(e ,2);

chdir(initial_dir);
