Hi I noticed that for both the functions imdilate and imerode there's also a dilate and erode function. They aim to do the same thing so I was wondering if they should be merged. The differences between them, at least that I can see, is that dilate and erode are only good for binary images (they go as far as binarizing them if a non logical matrix is supplied) while imdilate and imerode are also good for grayscale images (and use the same method as dilate and erode if binary images are supplied). Also, dilate and erode have a non-documented option where the operation is done a number of times rather than just once.
I think it would be good to merge them. I'd propose to keep the names imdilate and imerode for compatibility with the image processing toolbox of MatLab and the fact they do both kinds of operations (binary and greyscale).
