Abstract :
An approach to implementing neural computing with Boolean programmable logic is presented. A technique for the implementation of image morphological operations using a neural architecture is developed. Image morphological operations, by their very nature, involve repeated computations over large data structures. Parallelism appears to be a necessary attribute of a hardware system which can efficiently perform such image analysis tasks
