Thickning Operator
This morphological operator is the union of the input image and the
sup-generating operator with structuring elements A and B. The result
is the original image with additional pixels in the places where the
pattern specified by A and B is satisfied. This operation thicken the
image in the places where the pattern given by the structuring
elements A and B is satisfied.
In this example, the image is thickened by removing isolated 8-connected
holes. The pattern used is:
111 000 111
A = 101 B = 010 <=> Pattern = 101
111 000 111
So:
Sup-Gen(A,B)
