Claim 9:
10. A method, comprising:
receiving an image comprising a plurality of pixels;
receiving a partial label map including hard labels corresponding to a first subset of pixels of the image;
determining soft labels corresponding to a second subset of pixels of the image that is unlabeled, wherein determining a soft label for an unlabeled pixel in the second subset of pixels of the image comprises comparing a set of characteristics of the unlabeled pixel against a set of characteristics of a labeled pixel in the first subset of pixels of the image;
generating an output label map that includes both the hard labels included in the partial label map corresponding to the first subset of pixels of the image and the soft labels determined for the second subset of pixels of the image; and
training a model using both the image and the output label map that includes both the hard labels and the soft labels.
