Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer program products for static image segmentation are provided herein. A method includes segmenting a static image containing a target object into multiple regions based on one or more visual features of the static image; analyzing video content containing the target object to determine a similarity metric across the multiple segmented regions based on motion information associated with each of the multiple segmented regions; and applying the similarity metric to the static image to identify two or more of the multiple segmented regions as being portions of the target object.
