An apparatus and method for implementing object trajectory segmentation for an image sequence. Specifically, block-based motion vectors for a pair of adjacent frames are used to derive optical flow, e.g., affine, motion parameters. The object trajectory segmenter applies the optical flow motion parameters to form a new prediction or method for predicting the positions of all the points on an object over time within an interval. The new prediction is then applied and the result is compared with an error metric. The results from such comparison with the error metric will dictate the proper intervals (temporal boundaries) of the image sequence at which the motion parameters are valid for various key objects.
