Morphological Simplification of Archaeological Fracture Surfaces
share
We propose to employ scale spaces of mathematical morphology to hierarchically simplify fracture surfaces of complementarily fitting archaeological fragments. This representation preserves contact and is insensitive to different kinds of abrasion affecting the exact complementarity of the original fragments. We present a pipeline for morphologically simplifying fracture surfaces, based on their Lipschitz nature; its core is a new embedding of fracture surfaces to simultaneously compute both closing and opening morphological operations, using distance transforms.
