Abstract
Embodiments disclosed include methods and systems for assigning one or more labels to one or more segments of data received in an incoming segment to a line buffer for propagated component labeling, including preventing repeated labels in each line of the line buffer by assigning a different label for each of the one or more segments of data received in each line; labeling the incoming segment of the one or more segments of data by adopting a label of an overlapping segment on a prior received line when the overlapping segment does not overlap any other segment of data; labeling the incoming segment of the one or more segments of data by adopting a label of an overlapping segment on a prior received line when the overlapping segment overlaps more than one segment on the incoming segment when the segment is a first segment in the line buffer; and labeling the incoming segment of the one or more segments of data by adopting a label of a last overlapping segment when more than one segment overlaps the incoming segment.
