Abstract :
How can we filter images which present heterogeneous background? The use of classical techniques does not solve the problem. This paper will present solutions based on combinations of morphological operations. We will show how to delete the heterogeneous informations to return filtered and, in some cases, segmented images. We will demonstrate the results of this process applied on deteriorated images
