Abstract :
This paper presents new image processing operations based on the Dubois and Prade (1980) proposal of a fuzzy triangular norm. This definition is recalled, and a computational efficient algorithm is derived for its fast computation. This procedure also gives a comprehensive model for reasoning about the qualitative effects of the Dubois and Prade fuzzy norm on data. The presented image processing operations can be considered as fuzzy morphology operations. Due to this fact the application modes for those operations can be judged. Using the Dubois and Prade fuzzy morphology for background removal on bank cheque images is demonstrated as an application
