概要	Morphological image processing, introduced by Jean Serra in 1982, is a technique based on set theory that reshapes and analyzes image regions using geometric structuring elements. Core operations include erosion and dilation, which can be combined into more complex operations like opening and closing, enabling noise removal, edge detection, and object analysis.	Blob detection is a technique for identifying regions of interest (blobs)—connected, homogeneous areas that differ from their surroundings—at multiple scales. Introduced by Lindeberg in the context of scale-space theory, blob detection automatically finds and characterizes circular or elliptical objects without requiring a priori knowledge of their size.	Histogram equalization is an image preprocessing technique that redistributes pixel intensities to improve contrast and visibility of details. By spreading the histogram of pixel values evenly across the available range, histogram equalization enhances images with poor contrast, making features more visually distinct and easier to process algorithmically.
