Claim Text:
1. A computer-implemented method comprising: ascertaining features from a first image that are representative of an object of the first image; determining whether a second image includes one or more features that resemble the features ascertained from the first image; responsive to a determination that a plurality of the features of the second image resemble at least one of the features of the first image, dividing the second image into similar-pixel regions, each of the similar-pixel regions including pixels that are determined to have less than a threshold difference in pixel density with respect to a seed pixel of the similar-pixel region; determining the similar-pixel regions of the second image that include the determined resembled features; and combining the similar-pixel regions of the second image that include the determined resembled features to automatically select the object from the second image.
