Applications of Color Morphology in Image Denoising

Abstract

Mathematical morphology can be seen as a special digital image processing method and theory, which has been widely used in various fields. In this paper, the mathematical morphology is applied to the color image processing. In thespace of color image, I have simply expounded the theories and properties of color morphological changes, and defined its morphological operators. According to the application of omni-directional and multi-angle structuring elements composite morphological filter in gray image, I put forward a kind of color morphological filter with omni-directional and multi-angle structuring elements composite. This algorithm has retained its advantages in gray image, however, remaining some drawbacks. Through the optimization of results based on this algorithm, we finally get the relatively ideal denoising effects.Keywords: mathematical morphology;color model;color model; color morphological filter
