Fuzzy connected filters for fuzzy gray scale images

In this paper, we propose an ex-tension of connected filters into the fuzzy set framework. We introduce a modeling of imprecision via the in-troduction of the fuzzy umbra image concept which allows us to express fuzzy connected operators for fuzzy gray scale images. Using this new tool, a set of filters families is pro-posed and their properties are dis-cussed. The expression of classical filters in this new framework and the introduction of a new filter ded-icated to the processing of Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) vol-umes are also described.
