What is Image Analysis and Mathematical Morphology, Volume 1 about?

From the Preface ------------------ Mathematical morphology was born in 1964 when G. Matheron was asked to investigate the relationships between the geometry of porous media and their permeabilities, and when at the same time, I was asked to quantify the petrography of iron ores, in order to predict their milling properties. This initial period (1964-1968) has resulted in a first body of theoretical notions (Hit or Miss transformations, openings and closings, Boolean models), and also in the first prototype of the texture analyser. It was also the time of the creation of the Centre de Morphologie Mathematique on the campus of the Paris School of Mines at Fontainebleau (France). Above all, the new group had found its own style, made of a symbiosis between theoretical research, applications and design of devices. These have the following idea in common: the notion of a geometrical structure, or texture, is not purely objective. It does not exist in the phenomenon itself, nor in the observer, but somewhere in between the two. Mathematical morphology quantifies this intuition by introducing the concept of structuring elements. Chosen by the morphologist, they interact with the object u
