直接把整个章节都拿来是决定这个形态学的东西实在是有趣, 加之前后联系过于紧密, 感觉如果过于割裂会导致以后回忆不起来, 所以直接对整个章节做个笔记得了.

我觉得首先需要牢记的是, 本章节是在集合的基础上讨论的, 对于一个二元图中的物体, 我们可以通过如下集合表示:

[{(x_1, y_1), cdots, (x_N, y_N)}, ]

((x, y))表示值为(1)的坐标(这里假设foreground pixel的值为1, 当然也可以假设其为0).

注: 个人觉得, 这里讨论的时候并非像之前的图片一样以左上角原点, 而是以目标中心为原点然后发散开去(只是单纯便于理解和书写, 实际处理是不受影响的). 也就意味着, (x, y)是可以为负的, 显然这种表示的好处是不需要确定整个图片的大小范围.

本章节会频繁涉及到objects和structuring elements (SE)的概念, 说实话其具体的定义不是很清楚, 我还是从任务的角度来给它们做个解释.

因为本章节讨论的transform, 通常都是通过SE经过一些集合操作使得objects发生某种改变, 所以objects就是对象. SE

如上图所示, 虽然objects是一个仅仅记录0值的集合, 我们通常将其置于一个矩形区域中, 便于图片的处理, SE也是类似的. 特别的是, SE整体除了0, 1外还可能有( imes)的属性, 其表示0或1, 即该位置的点不我们所关心的点, 其可以任意匹配.

reflection and translation

反射, 即

[hat{B} = {w| w=-b, ext{for } b in B}, ]

需要注意的是该反射是以(B)的中心为原点的.

平移, 即

[(B)_z = {c| c= b+z, ext{for } b in B}. ]

Erosion and Dilation

Erosion

Erosion操作能够令图片中的元素'缩小', 所以其在处理噪声的时候其实不错. 其定义为:

[egin{array}{ll} A ominus B &= {z| (B)_z subset A} \ &= {w in Z^2 | w + b in A ext{ for every } b in B} \ &= mathop{igcap} limits_{b in B} (A)_{-b}. end{array} ]

proof:

设上面三个定义分别为(C_1, C_2, C_3).
(C_1 subset C_2):

(forall z in C_1),

[{b_1+z, b_2 + z, cdots} subset A, ]

[z + b in A, ext{ for every } b in B Rightarrow C_1 subset C_2. ]

(C_2 = C_3):

[C_2 = {w in Z^2 | w + b in A ext{ for every } b in B} =igcap_{b in B} {a-b in Z^2 | in A} =igcap_{b in B} (A)_{-b}. ]

(C_3 subset C_1):

(forall w in C_2):

[(B)_w subset A Rightarrow C_3 subset C_1. ]

示例

如下图所示, 第一行第一幅图是object, 通过第二幅SE erosion后object缩小了, 而通过第二行的SE更是直接成了一条线.

skimage.morphology.erosion

[erosion](Module: morphology — skimage v0.19.0.dev0 docs (scikit-image.org))

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from skimage.morphology import erosion, disk

def plot_comparison(original, filtered, filter_name):

    fig, (ax1, ax2) = plt.subplots(ncols=2, figsize=(8, 4), sharex=True,
                                   sharey=True)
    ax1.imshow(original, cmap=plt.cm.gray)
    ax1.set_title('original')
    ax1.axis('off')
    ax2.imshow(filtered, cmap=plt.cm.gray)
    ax2.set_title(filter_name)
    ax2.axis('off')
img = np.ones((100, 100))
arow = np.zeros((10, 100))
img = np.vstack((arow, img, arow))
acol = np.zeros((120, 10))
img = np.hstack((acol, img, acol)).astype(np.uint8)
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.imshow(img, cmap=plt.cm.gray)

footprint = disk(6) # {0, 1}, 半径为6的圆, 中心元素为1其余为0
eroded = erosion(img, footprint)
plot_comparison(img, eroded, 'erosion')

dilation

dilation的效果是令图中的元素进行扩张, 一些扫描的文本图像可能字符剑有断痕, 通过此可以修复.

其集合定义为:

[egin{array}{ll} A oplus B &= {z| (hat{B})_z igcap A ot= empty} \ &= {w in Z^2| w = a+ b, ext{ for some } a in A ext{ and } b in B}\ &= mathop{igcup}_{b in B} (A)_b \ &= mathop{igcup}_{a in A} (B)_a. end{array} ]

proof:

记上面四种定义各自为(C_1, C_2, C_3, C_4):

(C_1 = C_2):

(forall z in C_1):

[exist a in A, b in B, quad mathrm{s.t.} : -b + z = a ightarrow z = a + b ightarrow z in C_2, ]

[C_1 subset C_2. ]

(forall w in C_2):

[exist a in A, b in B, quad mathrm{s.t.} : w = a+b ightarrow -b + w = a ightarrow (hat{B})_w igcap A ot= empty, ]

[C_2 subset C_1. ]

(C_2 = C_3 = C_4):

显然.

最后两个定义是很直观的, (C_3)相当于对于每一个点(bin B)为中心画一个(A), (C_4)则是以每一个(a in A)为中心画一个(B).

示例

skimage.morphology.dilation

dilation

from skimage.morphology import dilation
footprint = disk(6) # {0, 1}, 半径为6的圆, 中心元素为1其余为0
dilated = dilation(eroded, footprint)
plot_comparison(eroded, dilated, 'dilation')

注: 圆角实际上是下一节的东西.

对偶性

[egin{array}{ll} (Aominus B)^c &= {z| (B)_z subset A}^c \ &= {z| (B)_z igcap A^c ot = empty} \ &= A^c oplus hat{B}. end{array} ]

[egin{array}{ll} (Aoplus B)^c &= {z| (hat{B})_z igcap A ot= empty }^c \ &= {z| (hat{B})_z subset A^c} \ &= A^c ominus hat{B}. end{array} ]

Opening and Closing

二者都有一种将目标变圆滑的效果.

Opening

定义:

[A circ B = (A ominus B) oplus B = mathop{igcup} limits_{z} {(B)_z | (B)_z subset A}. ]

proof:

[egin{array}{ll} (A ominus B) oplus B &= igcup_{z in A ominus B} (B)_z \ &= igcup_{z} {(B)_z| (B)_z subset A}. end{array} ]

示例

skimage.morphology.opening

opening

from skimage.morphology import opening
footprint = disk(6)
opened = opening(img, footprint)
plot_comparison(img, opened, 'opening')

Closing

定义:

[A ullet B = (A oplus B) ominus B = [igcup {(hat{B})_z| (hat{B})_z igcap A = empty}]^c. ]

注: 书中为:

[A ullet B = (A oplus B) ominus B = [igcup {(B)_z| (B)_z igcap A = empty}]^c, ]

但感觉不一样啊.

proof:

[egin{array}{ll} [(A oplus B) ominus B]^c &= (A oplus B)^c oplus hat{B} \ &= (A^c ominus hat{B}) oplus hat{B} \ &= igcup_z {(hat{B})_z | (hat{B})_z subset A^c} \ &= igcup_z {(hat{B})_z | (hat{B})_z igcap A = empty} \ end{array} ]

示例

skimage.morphology.closing

closing

from skimage.morphology import closing
footprint = disk(6)
closed = opening(img, footprint)
plot_comparison(img, closed, 'closing')

对偶性

[(A circ B)^c = (A^c ullet hat{B}) \ (A ullet B)^c = (A^c circ hat{B}) ]

[(A circ B) circ B = A circ B \ (A ullet B) ullet B = A ullet B. ]

The Hit-or-Miss Transform

主要用于shape detection.

定义:

[I circledast B_{1,2} = (A ominus B_1) igcap (A^c ominus B_2), ]

此为(B_1, B_2)不包含(0)元素的情形, 倘若允许(B)包含0元素, 那么

[I circledast B = I ominus B, ]

只是我们(B)通常需要一些特殊的性质来使其具有detection的作用.

具体怎么shape detection 还是请回看原文吧.

一些基本的操作

Boundary Extraction

定义:

[eta(A) = A - (A ominus B) ]

直观的感觉就是把object的中间部分挖掉.

Hole Filling

假设在我们想填的hole中已知一个点, 以这个点为基础出发(记为(X_0)):

[X_k = (X_{k-1} oplus B) igcap I^c, k=1,2,3,cdots, ]

停止准则为

[X_k = X_{k+1}. ]

不过需要注意的是, (B)应该选择下面类型的(如果是全满的话可能跳出hole了).

Extraction of Connected Components

抓取连通区域, 假设已知在我们想抓取的连通区域的一点, 从这个点出发(记为(X_0)):

[X_k = (X_{k-1} oplus B) igcap I, k=1,2,cdots, ]

直到

[X_{k+1} = X_k. ]

Convex Hull

将一个object填补成凸的, 这个说实话没怎么看明白.

[X_k^i = (X_{k-1}^i circledast B^i) igcup X_{k-1}^i, i=1,2,3,4, k=1,2,cdots \ X_0^i = I. ]

[X_{k+1}^i = X_{k}^i ]

时停止, 记其为(D^i), 最后的convex hull 为

[C(A) = mathop{igcup}_{i=1}^4 D^i. ]

总感觉这个不是最小的凸包啊.

skimage.morphology.convex_hull_image

convex_hull

Thinning

定义:

[A otimes B = A - (A circledast B) = A igcap (A circledast B)^c ]

skimage.morphology.thin

thin

Thickening

相反的操作:

[A odot B = A igcup (A circledast B). ]

Skeletons

其严格的定义有些复杂, 感觉有点拓扑结构?

[S(A) = mathop{igcup} limits_{k=0}^K S_k(A), \ S_k(A) = (A ominus kB) - (A ominus kB) circ B \ (A ominus kB) = ((ldots ((Aominus B) ominus B)ominus ldots) ominus B)\ K = max {k| (A ominus kB) ot = empty }. ]

skimage.morphology.skeletonize

skeleton

Pruning

pruning 方法用于去掉别的方法留下的一些spurs:

[X_1 = A otimes {B} \ X_2 = mathop{igcup} limits_{k=1}^8 (X_1 circledast B^k) \ X_3 = (X_2 oplus H) igcap A \ X_4 = X_1 igcup X_3. ]

(B^k)为下图的一系列(而({B})为其中一部分不一定全部用到):

Morphological Reconstruction

Morphological Reconstruction除了之前用到的(F, B)外, 还要额外用到一个图片(称为mask)作为一个reconstruction的limit.

Geodesic Dilation and Erosion

假设(F subset G), geodesic dilation:

[D_G^{(1)} (F) = (F oplus B) igcap G \ D_G^{(n)} (F) = D_G^{(1)} (D_G^{(n-1)} (F)), quad D_G^{(0)} (F) = F. ]

geodesic erosion:

[E_G^{(1)}(F) = (F ominus B) igcup G \ E_G^{(n)}(F) = E_G^{(1)}(E_G^{(n-1)}(F)), quad E_G^{(0)}(F) = F. ]

直观上很好解释, 即geodesic dilation在扩张的时候不能超过(G), 而geodesic erosion在收缩的时候不会少于(G).

Morphological Reconstruction by Dilation and by Erosion

定义很简单, 即重复上述操作直到收敛:

[R_G^D (F) = D^{(k)}_G (F), quad ext{if } D^{(k)}_G (F) = D^{(k-1)}_G (F), \ R_G^E (F) = E^{(k)}_G (F), quad ext{if } E^{(k)}_G (F) = E^{(k-1)}_G (F). ]

Opening|Closing by Reconstruction

[O_R^{(n)}(F) = R_{F}^D (F ominus nB), ]

直观解释就是, 先erosion (n)次, 再在此基础上不断扩张(受限于(F)).

Closing by Reconstruction 就是:

[C_R^{(n)}(F) = R_{F}^E (F oplus nB). ]

Automatic Algorithm for Filling Holes

之前介绍的hole filling需要一个点为基础, 这个算法是全自动的.

[F(x, y) = left { egin{array}{ll} 1 - I(x, y) & ext{if } (x, y) ext{ is on the border of } I \ 0 & ext{otherwise}. end{array} ight . ]

[H = [R_{I^c}^D(F)]^c \ H igcap I^c ]

感觉还是挺好理解的, 就是从边边, 由于中间部分的hole一定会被包围起来, 所以(H^c)一定不包含中间部分的hole.

Border Clearing

[F(x, y) = left { egin{array}{ll} I(x, y) & ext{if } (x, y) ext{ is on the border of } I \ 0 & ext{otherwise}. end{array} ight . ]

[X = I - R_{I}^D(F). ]

能够把边缘的一些部分给去了.
