Abstract
This paper discusses the use of Recursive Neighbourhoods in Mathematical Morphology. Its two notable applications are the recursive erosion / dilation, as well as the detection of foreground-background changes to be used in skeletonization. The benefit of the latter over an extension of the neighbourhood or the use of sub-cycles is emphasized. Two applications are presented that use the recursive neighbourhood in a 3D surface and a 3D curve anchor- skeleton variant.
