Abstract

Fuzzy Mathematical Morphology extends binary morphological operators to grayscale and color images using concepts from fuzzy logic. To define the morphological operators of erosion and fuzzy dilation, the R-implications and fuzzy T-norm respectively are used. This work presents the application of the fuzzy morphological operators of Lukasiewicz, Gödel and Goguen and of the epsilon and delta functions of Weber and Fodor in the counting of mycorrhizal fungi spores.
