Abstract :
Based on the similarities between fuzzy set theory and mathematical morphology, Grabisch (1994) proposed a fuzzy morphology based on the Sugeno fuzzy integral. This paper shows how these ideas can be applied to practical problems. Fast implementable definitions for erosion and dilation based on the fuzzy integral are given, their properties are discussed and some application examples are presented
