Abstract

The SKIPSM (Separated-Kernel Image Processing using finite- State Machines) has recently been extended with excellent results to various grey-scale operations (morphology, Gaussian Blur, ranked filters, etc.) as well as 3D binary operations. Another interesting direction, initiated in this paper, is the extension to color spaces. After a discussion of some possible goals of such image processing, this paper presents implementation techniques and examples. Because of the extra costs involved with the printing of colored images in journals, the example images are presented here in grey- scale only. Color images will be provided via e-mail on request.
