Abstract | A new method using grey-scale functions, asymptotic fractals (Rigaut 1984) and the Minkowski (1901) dilation/erosion, produces two graph asymptotes, one having a slope of 1 and the other a slope of DT-D+1 (where DT is the topological dimension and D the fractal dimension). The method allows an evaluation of scaling properties of a grey-scale image, estimation of D without iteration and analysis of fractal texture models. Images from cultured MCF7 cells of cytoskeleton intermediate filaments serve as example. | |
