Hit-or-miss transform Hit-or-miss transform In mathematical morphology, hit-or-miss transform is an operation that detects a given configuration (or pattern) in a binary image, using the morphological erosion operator and a pair of disjoint structuring elements. The result of the hit-or-miss transform is the set of positions where the first structuring element fits in the foreground of the input image, and the second structuring element misses it completely. In binary morphology, an image is viewed as a subset of an Euclidean space formula_1 or the integer grid formula_2, for some dimension "d". Let us denote this space or grid by "E". A structuring
