Applications

Making the region thinner in a non-symmetrical way or removing small parts of a particular shape.

Description

The operation is a cousin of the ErodeRegion filter, yet it uses any proper region selected by user as a structuring element. The center of a kernel is assumed to be at location (width/2,height/2). Refer to the ErodeRegion article for further information regarding the morphological erosion itself.
