A segmentation method receives a learning image and an objects of interest specification. A segmentation learning method creates a segmentation recipe output. It performs a segmentation application using the second image and the segmentation recipe to create a segmentation result output. The segmentation learning method includes an object region of interest segmentation learning step and an object type specific segmentation learning step. The segmentation application method includes an object region of interest segmentation step and an object type specific segmentation step. The learnable object segmentation method further comprises an online learning and a feedback learning step that allows the update of the segmentation recipe automatically or under user direction.
