Abstract
A method and an apparatus for generating an initial superpixel label map for a current image from an image sequence are described. The apparatus includes a feature detector that determines features in the current image. A feature tracker then tracks the determined features back into a previous image. Based on the tracked features a transformer transforms a superpixel label map associated to the previous image into an initial superpixel label map for the current image.
Claims15
A method for generating an initial superpixel label map for a current image from an image sequence, the method comprising:
- determining features in the current image;
- tracking the determined features back into a previous image;
- and
- transforming a superpixel label map associated to the previous image into an initial superpixel label map for the current image based on the tracked features, the method further comprising adding features at the borders of the current image.
(canceled)
A computer readable storage medium having stored therein instructions for generating an initial superpixel label map for a current image from an image sequence, which when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:
- determine features in the current image;
- track the determined features back into a previous image;
- and
- transform a superpixel label map associated to the previous image into an initial superpixel label map for the current image based on the tracked features, said instructions further causing the computer to add features at the borders of the current image.
An apparatus for generating an initial superpixel label map for a current image from an image sequence, the apparatus comprising:
- a feature detector configured to determine features in the current image;
- a feature tracker configured to track the determined features back into a previous image;
- and
- a transformer configured to transform a superpixel label map associated to the previous image into an initial superpixel label map for the current image based on the tracked features
- said apparatus being configured to add features at the borders of the current image.
An apparatus for generating an initial superpixel label map for a current image from an image sequence, the apparatus comprising a processing device and a memory device having stored therein instructions, which, when executed by the processing device, cause the apparatus to:
- determine features in the current image;
- track the determined features back into a previous image;
- and
- transform a superpixel label map associated to the previous image into an initial superpixel label map for the current image based on the tracked features said instructions, when executed by the processing device, further causing the apparatus to add features at the borders of the current image.
