Method and apparatus for multi-label segmentation

摘要

A method and an apparatus for multi-label segmentation of an image are described. First an energy function is determined (10) for the image. Then for a homogeneous region of the image variables of the energy function are grouped (11) to a single variable. Subsequently the energy function is minimized (12) and labels are assigned (13) to regions of the image based on the minimized energy function.
