20070313-Connected component labeling – Part 2

原文：http://blogs.mathworks.com/steve/2007/03/13/connected-component-labeling-part-2/

In this series I'm discussing different ways to compute the connected components of a binary image. Before I get into specific algorithms, though, I need to touch briefly on the notion of connectivity.

conn4 = [0 1 0; 1 1 1; 0 1 0]

conn4 =

     0     1     0
     1     1     1
     0     1     0

conn8 = [1 1 1; 1 1 1; 1 1 1]

conn8 =

     1     1     1
     1     1     1
     1     1     1
