#REDIRECT [[Mathematical morphology]]
A collection of techniques for [[digital image processing]] based on [[Mathematical morphology]]. Since these techniques rely only on the relative ordering of [[pixel]] values, not on their numerical values, they are especially suited to the processing of [[binary images]] and [[grayscale images]] whose [[light transfer function]] is not known.

Some morphological operations are:

* [[Erosion (morphology)]]
* [[Dilation (morphology)]]
* [[Opening (morphology)]]
* [[Closing (morphology)]]
* [[Shrinking]]
* [[Thinning]]
* [[Thickening]]
* [[Skeletonization]]
* [[Pruning (morphology)]]

By combining these operators one can obtain algorithms for many image processing tasks, such as [[feature detection]], [[segmentation (image processing)|image segmentation]], [[image sharpening]], [[filtering (image processing)|image filtering]], [[granulometry]] and [[distance transforms]].
