Abstract

This paper presents a new approach of watershed extraction in binary images. After a brief reminder about segmentation tools in mathematical morphology, the method, based on the characterisation of contour’s points, is detailed. The data used are given by the calypter which is a morphological descriptor incorporating skeleton and contour informations. Then, the advantages of the method are highlighted; in particular, it is shown that the geometrical knowledge, given by the calypter, about the size and configuration of the catchment basins can bring some criteria for the segmentation decision.
