- Spatially adaptive structuring elements adjust their shape to the local structures in the image, and are often defined by a ball in a geodesic distance or gray-weighted distance metric space. This paper introduces salience adaptive structuring elements as spatially variant structuring elements that modify not only their shape, but also their size according to the salience of the edges in the image. Morphological operators with salience adaptive structuring elements shift edges with high salience to a less extent than those with low salience. Salience adaptive structuring elements are less flexible than morphological amoebas and their shape is less affected by noise in the image. Consequently, morphological operators using salience adaptive structuring elements have better properties.

- It has been shown that the use of the salience map based on the salience distance transform can be useful for the construction of spatially adaptive structuring elements. In this paper, we propose salience-based parabolic structuring functions that are defined for a fixed, predefined spatial support, and have low computational complexity. In addition, we discuss how to properly define adjunct morphological operators using the new spatially adaptive structuring functions. It is also possible to obtain flat adaptive structuring elements by thresholding the salience-based parabolic structuring functions.

- Adaptive structuring elements modify their shape and size according to the image content and may outperform fixed structuring elements. Without any restrictions, they suffer from a high computational complexity, which is often higher than linear with respect to the number of pixels in the image. This paper introduces adaptive structuring elements that have predefined shape, but where the size is adjusted to the local image structures. The size of adaptive structuring elements is determined by the salience map that corresponds to the salience of the edges in the image, which can be computed in linear time. We illustrate the difference between the new adaptive structuring elements and morphological amoebas. As an example of its usefulness, we show how the new adaptive morphological operations can isolate the text in historical documents.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A mathematical model for the optimization of pump scheduling in a water distribution system is proposed. The water system we consider works without a large water storage facility and hence the mass balance principle is the base for the model. A result concerning the pressure drop after T-junctions is the main simplification we propose. An optimization problem is formulated and solved by a Branch and Bound method for a real water distribution system using data from a small city in Serbia.
