Applying Morphological filters

As you have seen from the last recipe, morphological operators (such as erosion, dilation, erode, opening, and closing) can be applied through binary image filtering to grow/shrink image regions, as well as to remove or fill in image region boundary pixels. In this recipe, you will learn how to apply a few more morphological filters to a binary image to enhance the image or get the desired results. Some more morphology filters include top-hat transforms, morphological gradient, and morphological Laplace.

Getting ready

Import the necessary libraries, modules, and functions required to start by using the following code block:

#!pip install itk 
from skimage.morphology import flood_fill, diameter_closing...
