ABSTRACT
The paper deals with the use of the various color pieces
of information for segmenting color images and sequences
with mathematical morphology operators. It is divided in
four parts. The first one is concerning the choice of the color
space suitable for morphological processing. The choice of
a connection which induces a specific segmentation is dis-
cussed in section 2. Section 3 presents the color segmen-
tation approach which is based on a non-parametric pyra-
mid of watersheds, with a comparative study of different
color gradients. In section 4 is introduced another multi-
scale color segmentation algorithm, relying on the merging
of chromatic-achromatic partitionsordered by the saturation
component.
