Claim One:
1. A segmentation unit ( 100 , 200 , 300 ) for assigning a first pixel of a first image of a sequence of images to a segment, comprising: an assignment unit ( 102 ) for assigning a first homogeneity value to the first pixel on basis of the first image and a second homogeneity value to a second pixel of a second image of the sequence of images, with the first pixel and the second pixel related by means of a motion vector; an averaging unit ( 103 ) for calculating an average homogeneity value for the first pixel by means of averaging the first homogeneity value and the second homogeneity value; and a comparing unit ( 106 ) for comparing the average homogeneity value with a threshold in order to assign the first pixel to the segment.
