BUILT-IN MATHEMATICA SYMBOL
Dilation[image, ker]
gives the morphological dilation of image with respect to the structuring element ker.
Dilation[image, r]
gives the dilation with respect to a range-r square.
Dilation[data, ...]
applies dilation to an array of data.
Details and Options
- Dilation works with binary, grayscale, or multichannel images, operating separately on each channel.
- Dilation works with 3D as well as 2D images, and also with data arrays of any rank.
- The structuring element ker is a matrix containing
s and 
s. - Dilation automatically adds zeros to structuring elements so that they have odd dimensions.
- Dilation[image, r] is equivalent to Dilation[image, BoxMatrix[r]].
- If multiple image channels are present, Dilation operates on each of them separately.
- Dilation takes a Padding option that specifies the values to assume for pixels outside the image.
- The default setting is Padding->0, corresponding to pixel value
for all channels.
