Abstract:
Tree-based image representations are popular tools for many
applications in mathematical morphology and image
processing. Classically, one computes an attribute on each node of a
tree and decides whether to preserve or remove some nodes upon the
attribute function. This attribute function plays a key role for the
good performance of tree-based applications. In this paper, we propose
several algorithms to compute efficiently some attribute
information. The first one is incremental computation of information
on region, contour, and context. Then we show how to compute
efficiently extremal information along the contour (e.g., minimal
gradient's magnitude along the contour). Lastly, we depict computation
of extinction-based saliency map using tree-based image
representations. The computation complexity and the memory cost of
these algorithms are analyzed. To the best of our knowledge, except
information on region, none of the other algorithms is presented
explicitly in any state-of-the-art paper.
