Since the recent dissertation by Steffen Winter, for certain self-similar sets F the growth behaviour of the Minkowski functionals of the parallel sets Fε := \x∈ \mathbb Rd : d(x,F)≤ ε\ as ε \downarrow 0 is known, leading to the notion of fractal curvatures Ckf(F), k∈ \0,…,d\. The dependence of the growth behaviour on the fractal dimension s = dim F is exploited, and estimators for s and Ckf(F) are derived. The performance of these estimators is tested on binary images of self-similar sets.
