Digital image morphology

A lot of morphological operations can applied using digital images, these operations are very important due the applications that require these operations such as:

-        Expanding object size.

-        Reducing object size.

-        Eliminating low intensity noise.

-        Eliminating high intensity noise.

-        Eliminating small objects from the image without affecting other bigger objects (noise removal).

-        Extracting image background.

-        Extracting image foreground.

-        Image thinning.

-        Image thickening.

-        Detecting whether the image contains a predefined object.

-        Detecting image corners.

-        Objects separation.

-        Decreasing image brightness.

-        Increasing image brightness.

-        Edge detection.
