Line Segment Function and Sup of Directional
Erosions
Definition The line-segment function DmX(x) is a
transformation that associates with each pixel x
of a set X the length of the longest symmetrical
line segment, centered at the origin, placed at
point x and completely included in X.
The line segment function is computed by
Binary Image (BI)

Line Segment and Orientation Functions
Definition The orientation function OmX(x) is a
transformation that associates with each pixel x
of a set X the angle of the longest symmetrical
line segment, centered at the origin, placed at
point x and completely included in X.

Conclusion
This paper has shown the possibilities for
application of morphological directional
transformations to segment images with
orientation fields. Initially, one investigates
the directional granulometries and the notion of
quadtree structure. The quadtree is used to
describe a class of hierarchical data structures
thus it permits one to classify the orientation
fields at different scales. This approach
involves a local analysis using the notions of
the line-segment and orientation functions
proposed in this paper.
17
Conclusion cont.
The maxima of the line-segment function were used
for computing the loci of maximal structuring
elements, and the orientation function was used
to obtain the angles of the line segments. These
pairs of local parameters enable us to produce a
good description of the image by means of line
segments. Then, a partition of the image may be
computed by means of the catchment basins
associated with the watershed transform. This
enables us to realize a neighborhood analysis,
using a RAG structure, in order to merge adjacent
regions of the partition according to appropriate
criteria, thus segmenting the images into
orientation fields. The results based on the
algorithms presented in this paper show the good
performance of the approach.
