Abstract In the paper, the method of poseaware silhouette processing is presented. Morphological closing is proposed to enhance segmented silhouette object. The contribution of the work is adaptation of structuring element used for mathematical morphology erosions and dilations. It is proposed to use camera parameters, 3D model of the scene, model of the silhouette and its position to compute structuring element adequate to the individual projected to the camera image. Structuring element computation and basic morphology operators were implemented in OpenCL environment and tested on parallel GPU platform. Comparison with utility software packages is provided and results are briefly discussed.

Mathematical morphology has been an area of intensive research over the last few years. Although many remarkable advances have been achieved throughout these years, there is still a great interest in accelerating morphological operations in order for them to be implemented in real-time systems. In this work, we present a new model for computing mathematical morphology operations, the so-called morphological trajectory model (MTM), in which a morphological filter will be divided into a sequence of basic operations. Then, a trajectory-based morphological operation (such as dilation, and erosion) is defined as the set of points resulting from the ordered application of the instant basic operations. The MTM approach allows working with different structuring elements, such as disks, and from the experiments, it can be extracted that our method is independent of the structuring element size and can be easily applied to industrial systems and high-resolution images.
