   Hi,

   Can anyone refer me to some literature on particle seperation?
   Specifically, this is what I am interested in:

   I have a binary image which has in it some closed regions (blobs).
   Some of the blobs are touching each other. I would like to
   seperate the blobs which are touching each other, without altering
   the blobs that are not touching. Operations such as erosion on the
   whole image would seperate the touching blobs, but would also
   change the parameters of the ones that are not touching (for
   example, the area and perimeter of the isolated blobs would
   change). In other words, what I am looking for is some
   non-destructive way of seperation. Any ideas or references would be
   gladly appreciated. Thanks,
