METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING AN INITIAL SUPERPIXEL LABEL MAP FOR AN IMAGE

摘要

A method and an apparatus (20) for generating an initial superpixel label map for a current image from an image sequence are described. The apparatus (20) comprises a feature detector (23) that determines (10) features in the current image. A feature tracker (24) then tracks (11) the determined features back into a previous image. Based on the tracked features a transformer (25) transforms (12) a superpixel label map associated to the previous image into an initial superpixel label map for the current image.
