On the computation of the Minkowski dimension using morphological operations
S. Kanmani, C. Babu Rao, Baldev Raj · Journal of Microscopy · 1993
SUMMARY The Minkowski dimension as a complexity measure, and its relation to the other dimensions in the case of self‐similar fractal objects, is discussed. An implementation of the Minkowski dimension, using morphological operations on a square grid, is presented. The effect of resolution, orientation and the symmetry of the structuring element used on the estimation of the Minkowski dimension is studied. The corrections required for free end points are presented.
