Multivalued Component-Tree Filtering
Camille Kurtz, Benoît Naegel, Nicolas Passat · 2014
We introduce the new notion of multivalued component-tree, that extends the classical component-tree initially devoted to grey-level images, in the mathematical morphology framework. We prove that multivalued component-trees can model images whose values are hierarchically organized. We also show that they can be efficiently built from standard component-tree construction algorithms, and involved in antiextensive filtering procedures. The relevance and usefulness of multivalued component-trees is illustrated by an applicative example on hierarchically classified remote sensing images.
