Abstract
A video is segmented to produce volumetric video regions. Descriptors are created for the video regions. A region graph is created for the video, where the region graph has weighted edges incident to video regions and the weight of an edge is calculated responsive to the descriptors of the video regions incident to the edge. The region graph is segmented responsive to the weights of the edges incident to the video regions to produce a new region graph having new volumetric video regions comprised of merged video regions of the first region graph. The descriptions of the region graphs are stored in a data storage.
