Abstract

A method of determining segments in a series of images based on previous segmentation results and on motion estimation. A second segment () of a second image () is determined based on a first segment () of a first image (), with the first segment () and the second segment () corresponding to one object (). The method comprises a calculation step to compare values of pixels of the first image () and the second image () in order to calculate a motion model which defines the transformation of the first segment () into the second segment (). An example of such a motion model allows only translation. Translation can be described with one motion vector ().
