On grayscale images, the dynamic connected opening removes maxima whose dynamic is below a given value where the dynamic stands for the difference between the lowest and highest value of the component. In [Soi13], it refers to the notion of h-extrema filtering that suppresses all maxima whose depth is lower or equal to a given threshold level h. This is achieved by performing the reconstruction by dilation of f from \(f - h\).

Dynamic opening with a depth h=3. The blue function is the original image f and is light gray is the opening.

Parameters:
  • f – Input image 𝑓

  • nbh – Elementary structuring element.

  • h – The minimal dynamic to preserve a component

Returns:

An image whose type is deduced from the input image

Exception:

N/A
