Abstract

Hybrid bipixel structuring element decomposition can be accomplished if the decomposed primary components of a structuring element are either line segments or parallelograms, since both have optimal bipixel decomposition. The proposed method is used for the decomposition of digital disks and can be extended to arbitrary structuring elements. Using the decomposed digital disks, Euclidean morphological dilation and erosion can be performed with linear computational complexity.
