# mmse2interval
Create an interval from a pair of structuring elements.

## Synopsis

Iab = mmse2interval( a, b )

Implemented in Python.

### Input

a | Structuring Element Left extremity.
b | Structuring Element Right extremity.

### Output

Iab | Interval

## Description

mmse2interval creates the interval `[a,b]` from the structuring elements `a` and `b` such that `a` is less or equal `b`.

## Equation

Flat interval:
Where W is a finite rectangle.
Non-flat interval:

## Limitations

Both structuring elements must have the same size with odd dimensions. To avoid this limitation, use mmse2hmt.

## Source Code

    def mmse2interval(a, b):
        Iab = (a,mmneg(b))
        return Iab
