Description This function will morphologically open the grayscale image. The function works for only 8 bit per pixel images. Morphological opening of a grayscale image is defined as the erosion of that image followed by the dilation of the eroded image. The opening filter operation will reduce small positive oriented graylevel regions and positive graylevel noise regions generated from salt and pepper noise.
