A central paradigm in mathematical morphology is the decomposition (representation) of complete lattice operators (mappings) in terms of four classes of elementary operators: dilations, erosions, anti-dilations and anti-erosions. The rules for performing these representations can be described as a formal language, the morphological language [4]. The vocabulary of this language is composed of the four classes of elementary operators and the lattice operations of intersection and union. A phrase of the morphological language is called a morphological operator.
