Abstract

A method for processing segmentation tags to generate a block level tag representative of a group of segmentation tags includes identifying a block of the segmentation tags; compiling a block statistic from a plurality of segmentation tags within the block; determining a most predominant segmentation tag and a second most predominant segmentation tag in the plurality of segmentation tags; and generating a block level tag for the block based on the most predominant segmentation tag, the second most predominant segmentation tag and the block statistic.
