In [18], a membrane parallel theoretical framework for computing (co)homology information of fore- ground or background of binary digital images is developed. Starting from this work, we progress here in two senses: (a) providing advanced topological information, such as (co)homology torsion and effi- ciently answering to any decision or...

In this paper, we present a parallel implementation of a new algorithm for segmenting images with gradient-based edge detection by using techniques from Natural Computing. This bio-inspired parallel algorithm has been implemented in a novel device architecture called CUDA™(Compute Unified Device Architecture). The implementation has been...

In this paper we present a parallel algorithm to solve the thresholding problem by using Membrane Computing techniques. This bio-inspired algorithm has been implemented in a novel device architecture called CUDATM, (Compute Unified Device Architecture). We present some examples, compare the obtained time and present some research lines for the future.

The problem of automatically marking the interior and exterior regions of a simple curve in a digital image becomes a hard task due to the noise and the intrinsic difficulties of the media where the image is taken. In this paper, we propose a definition of the interior of a partially bounded region and present a bio-inspired algorithm for...

Recent developments of computer architectures together with alternative formal descriptions provide new challenges in the study of digital Images. In this paper we present a new implementation of the Guo & Hall algorithm [8] for skeletonizing images based on Cellular Automata. The implementation is performed in a real-time parallel way by using...
