Abstract
A method of generating a segmentation outcome which indicates individual instances of one or more object classes for an image in a sequence of images is disclosed. The method comprises: determining () a coherent region of the image; processing () the image to determine a tensor representing pixel-specific confidence scores; generating () a series of temporary segmentation masks for the coherent region, wherein each temporary segmentation mask is generated by interpreting the tensor with respect to a single object class using a different temporary confidence score threshold; evaluating () the series of temporary segmentation masks to determine if an object mask condition is met; depending on the outcome of the evaluation, setting () the temporary confidence score threshold as a final confidence score threshold for the pixels of the temporary segmentation mask, or setting () a default confidence score threshold as a final confidence score threshold for the coherent region; and generating () a final segmentation outcome for the image.
