Resumen

El presente trabajo presenta una técnica de reconocimiento de patrones en tiempo real basada en Morfología Matemática-MM implementada en FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array). La estrategia para la efectividad de este enfoque tiene que ver con las ventajas del paradigma de aprendizaje automática aplicada al modelo de correspondencia con la invariancia traslacional de operadores elementales da MM. El artículo muestra que las composiciones de operadores elementales simples de morfología matemática basadas en ELUT (tablas de consulta elementales) son adecuadas para integrarse en dispositivos FPGA. Este artículo también muestra técnicas de desarrollo de sistemas de reconocimiento de patrones, desde el modelado matemático de operadores morfológicos hasta la implementación del dispositivo electrónico utilizando el software System Generator. En general, las operaciones para el procesamiento de imágenes en FPGAs se implementan a un bajo nivel de abstracción de los lenguajes de descripción del hardware-HDL. Esto crea una gran complejidad en la implementación de operaciones en imágenes a nivel de píxeles. Sin embargo, este trabajo presenta un dispositivo reconfigurable de reconocimiento de patrones implementado directamente en FPGA a partir de simulación de modelado matemático en el software Matlab/Simulink/System Generator. Esta estrategia ha reducido la complejidad del desarrollo de hardware. El dispositivo será útil principalmente cuando se aplique en tareas de teledetección para misiones aeroespaciales utilizando sensores pasivos o activos.
