Abstract

In this paper the relationship of hyperconnected filters with path openings and attribute-space connected filters is studied. Using a recently developed axiomatic framework based on hyperconnectivity operators, which are the hyperconnected equivalents of connectivity openings, it is shown that path openings are a special case of hyperconnected area openings. The new axiomatics also yield insight into the relationship between hyperconnectivity and attribute-space connectivity. It is shown any hyperconnectivity is an attribute-space connectivity, but that the reverse is not true.
