Abstract

Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for assigning a color class of a defined finite set of colors to at least one sub-region within a test image are presented. A plurality of sub-regions are identified within a test image. A first sub-region color value is determined for a selected first sub-region of the test image. Using the first sub-region color value and a plurality of zero-order probability distributions, a first color class of the defined finite set of colors is determined as a hypothesis color for the first sub-region. A second sub-region color value is determined for a selected second sub-region of the test image. Using the second sub-region color value and a conditional probability distribution conditioned on the hypothesis color for the first sub-region, a second color class of the defined set of colors is determined. The second color class is assigned to the second sub-region.
