    Abstract: Performing a three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction process of a set of selected image frames. In some instances, a plurality of sequential image frames that are extracted from a video file (including video content created through the use of Augmented Reality) are converted into a grayscale format. Once these image files are converted to a grayscale format, a two-dimensional (2D) entropy process is performed that is ultimately used to create a set of user-defined clusters, with each of these user-defined clusters being associated with at least a sub-set set of the grayscale frames. After a cluster is selected, a 3D reconstruction process is performed on the frames associated with the selected cluster.
