Hardware-Based Fast Hybrid Morphological Reconstruction

Editor’s note: The optimized hybrid (FH) morphological reconstruction algorithm used in image analysis with FPGA and ASIC implementation is discussed in this article. FPGA enables a fast prototyping and, today, even the introduction to the market dementedly on the market volume. The complex algorithm is analyzed according to its efficient realization in terms of performance and power consumption.-- Michael Hubner, Brandenburg University of Technology
