Abstract

In this paper we show how the notion of convergence of a sequence of closed sets and that of random closed sets can be given a precise definition by means of mathematical morphological tools. Then we use these two notions on the one hand to analyze how the Delaunay triangulation enables us to get a good approximation of the skeleton of an object and on the other hand to estimate the performances of bucketing techniques in the average case.
