Abstract

Morphological associative memories (MAMs) are a special type of associative memory which exhibit optimal absolute storage capacity and one-step convergence. This associative model substitutes the additions and multiplications used in the classical models by additions/subtractions and maximums/minimums depending on the proposed model. MAMs have been applied to different pattern recognition problems including face localization and gray scale image restoration. Despite of his power, it has not been applied in problems that involve true-color patterns. In this paper we show how a Morphological Auto-associative Memory (MAAM) can be applied to restore true-color patterns. We present a study of the behavior of this associative model with a benchmark of 14400 images altered by different type of noises.
