We present a robust method to visually segment scenes into objects based on motion and appearance. Both these cues provide complementary information that we fuse using two interconnected recursive estimators: One estimates object segmentation from motion as a probabilistic clustering of tracked 3D points, and the other estimates object segmentation from appearance as a probabilistic image segmenta...
