Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for combining multiple segmentations into a single unique segmentation that contains attributes of the original segmentations. This new segmentation forms an ensemble or combination segmentation that has a unique set of attributes from the original segmentations without enumerating every possible set of combinations. In one example, two or more segments are combined into a single segmentation using a technique such as k-means clustering or Self-Organizing Map Neural Networks. After the first combination phase is performed, a Bayesian technique is then applied in a second phase to adjust or further alter the ensemble combination of segments.
