A simple non-parametric approach for detecting corner points using mathematical morphology is proposed in this paper. The proposed method has two stages, the first stage deals with the extraction of significant corner clusters from an image, while the second stage concentrates on detection and localization of true corner points from the extracted corner clusters. The proposed method unlike other morphology based methods detects all true corner points present in the extracted corner clusters.The experimental results reveal that the proposed method outperforms existing morphology based corner detection schemes.Keywords:Mathematical morphology,Corner points,Region of support, Curvature estimation, Non-parametric, Small eigenvalue.
