Geometry, Topology and Morphology
in Image Processing and Analysis

You will find here more information about research on geometrical, topological and morphological approaches in image processing and analysis inside the Discrete Geometry and Mathematical Morphology theme of the Models, Images and Vision research team of the LSIIT, and related teaching at the Computer Science Department of the Université Louis Pasteur.
