A method for improving classification results of a classifier including receiving classification results for a plurality of elements that have been classified by a classifier as one of a plurality of classes, constructing a graph having a plurality of nodes, each node corresponding to one of the elements, and a plurality of labels, each label corresponding to one of the classes, adding edges between nodes corresponding to related elements, adding edges between each node and each label, and using a graph cut algorithm to cut edges to a node and partition the graph into classes, the graph cut algorithm using as input the classification results for the element corresponding to that node and related elements.

Method for improving classification results of a classifier

Two-dimensional (2D) video is converted into multi-view video. The 2D video is segmented to generate a temporally consistent segmented 2D video which is made up of a sequence of segmented frames. The multi-view video is generated by employing user-guided operations to generate depth assignments for the segments associated with user-assigned regions of the segmented frames, where a user-assigned region is formed from a group of contiguous segments selected by the user.
