Vectorised SIMD Implementations of Morphology Algorithms

Abstract
We explore vectorised implementations, exploiting single instruction multiple data (SIMD) CPU instructions on commonly used architectures, of three efficient algorithms for morphological dilation and erosion. We discuss issues specific to SIMD implementation and describe how they guide algorithm choice. We compare our implementations to a commonly used opensource SIMD accelerated machine vision library and find orders of magnitude speed-ups can be achieved for erosions using two-dimensional structuring elements.
