The areas of linear and nonlinear three-dimensional (3-D) digital filters have received
increasing attention in recent years. 3-D linear and nonlinear filters inherently belong to the …

In this paper the shape information contents of a morphological vector descriptor, called
“pecstrum”(pattern spectrum), are investigated. The pecstrum is then used for aircraft …

In this chapter, seven different approaches are presented for identifying persons who have
consumed alcohol. The main concept is to identify a drunk person based on the thermal …

In this work, multi-frame thermal imagery of the face of a person is employed for drunk
identification. Regions with almost constant temperature on the face of sober and drunk …

Pi methodology based on mathematical morphol-ogy is proposed for efficient recognition of
two-dimensional (2-D) objects or shapes. This novel approach is based on the introduction …

Morphological transformations are an efficient method for shape analysis and
representation. In this work the pecstrum (pattern spectrum), which is a morphological shape …

The final goal of image processing and analysis is, often, to segment the image into objects
in order to analyze the geometric properties (eg, the size) and the structure of the objects …
