object contour detection with a fully convolutional encoder decoder network

We use thelayersupto"fc6"fromVGG-16net[48]asourencoder. We believe our instance-level object contours will provide another strong cue for addressing this problem that is worth investigating in the future. sparse image models for class-specific edge detection and image The main problem with filter based methods is that they only look at the color or brightness differences between adjacent pixels but cannot tell the texture differences in a larger receptive field. and previous encoder-decoder methods, we first learn a coarse feature map after Long, R.Girshick, J. Yang and M.-H. Yang are supported in part by NSF CAREER Grant #1149783, NSF IIS Grant #1152576, and a gift from Adobe. As the contour and non-contour pixels are extremely imbalanced in each minibatch, the penalty for being contour is set to be 10 times the penalty for being non-contour.

Amer, S.Yousefi, R.Raich, and S.Todorovic, Monocular extraction of image labeling has been greatly advanced, especially on the task of semantic segmentation[10, 34, 32, 48, 38, 33]. Our PASCAL VOC 2012: The PASCAL VOC dataset[16] is a widely-used benchmark with high-quality annotations for object detection and segmentation. detection, in, J.Revaud, P.Weinzaepfel, Z.Harchaoui, and C.Schmid, EpicFlow: The combining process can be stack step-by-step. We choose the MCG algorithm to generate segmented object proposals from our detected contours. Quantitatively, we present per-class ARs in Figure12 and have following observations: CEDN obtains good results on those classes that share common super-categories with PASCAL classes, such as vehicle, animal and furniture. task. We show we can fine tune our network for edge detection and match the state-of-the-art in terms of precision and recall. The overall loss function is formulated as: In our testing stage, the DSN side-output layers will be discarded, which differs from the HED network. We also note that there is still a big performance gap between our current method (F=0.57) and the upper bound (F=0.74), which requires further research for improvement. To achieve this goal, deep architectures have developed three main strategies: (1) inputing images at several scales into one or multiple streams[48, 22, 50]; (2) combining feature maps from different layers of a deep architecture[19, 51, 52]; (3) improving the decoder/deconvolution networks[13, 25, 24]. Being fully convolutional . T1 - Object contour detection with a fully convolutional encoder-decoder network. Most of proposal generation methods are built upon effective contour detection and superpixel segmentation. Similar to CEDN[13], we formulate contour detection as a binary image labeling problem where 0 and 1 refer to non-contour and contour, respectively. Bounding box proposal generation[46, 49, 11, 1] is motivated by efficient object detection. This work claims that recognizing objects and predicting contours are two mutually related tasks, and shows that it can invert the commonly established pipeline: instead of detecting contours with low-level cues for a higher-level recognition task, it exploits object-related features as high- level cues for contour detection. In the future, we consider developing large scale semi-supervised learning methods for training the object contour detector on MS COCO with noisy annotations, and applying the generated proposals for object detection and instance segmentation. 5, we trained the dataset with two strategies: (1) assigning a pixel a positive label if only if its labeled as positive by at least three annotators, otherwise this pixel was labeled as negative; (2) treating all annotated contour labels as positives. We evaluate the trained network on unseen object categories from BSDS500 and MS COCO datasets[31], Object Contour Detection with a Fully Convolutional Encoder-Decoder Network.

Ren, combined features extracted from multi-scale local operators based on the, combined multiple local cues into a globalization framework based on spectral clustering for contour detection, called, developed a normalized cuts algorithm, which provided a faster speed to the eigenvector computation required for contour globalization, Some researches focused on the mid-level structures of local patches, such as straight lines, parallel lines, T-junctions, Y-junctions and so on[41, 42, 18, 10], which are termed as structure learning[43].

For each training image, we randomly crop four 2242243 patches and together with their mirrored ones compose a 22422438 minibatch. With such adjustment, we can still initialize the training process from weights trained for classification on the large dataset[53]. CEDN works well on unseen classes that are not prevalent in the PASCAL VOC training set, such as sports. Multi-stage Neural Networks.

Different from previous low-level edge detection, our algorithm focuses on detecting higher-level object contours. We also experimented with the Graph Cut method[7] but find it usually produces jaggy contours due to its shortcutting bias (Figure3(c)). synthetically trained fully convolutional network, DeepEdge: A Multi-Scale Bifurcated Deep Network for Top-Down Contour boundaries, in, , Imagenet large scale solves two important issues in this low-level vision problem: (1) learning We develop a deep learning algorithm for contour detection with a fully convolutional encoder-decoder network.

Crack detection is important for evaluating pavement conditions. We develop a deep learning algorithm for contour detection with a fully Previous algorithms efforts lift edge detection to a higher abstract level, but still fall below human perception due to their lack of object-level knowledge. lixin666/C2SNet Though the deconvolutional layers are fixed to the linear interpolation, our experiments show outstanding performances to solve such issues. @inproceedings{bcf6061826f64ed3b19a547d00276532. kmaninis/COB A.Karpathy, A.Khosla, M.Bernstein, N.Srivastava, G.E.

This material is presented to ensure timely dissemination of scholarly and technical work. Different from the original network, we apply the BN[28] layer to reduce the internal covariate shift between each convolutional layer and the ReLU[29] layer. By combining with the multiscale combinatorial grouping algorithm, our method can generate high-quality segmented object proposals, which significantly advance the state-of-the-art on PASCAL VOC (improving average recall from 0.62 to 0.67) with a relatively small amount of candidates (~1660 per image). Different from previous low-level edge detection, our algorithm focuses on detecting higher-level object contours. 2. Since visually salient edges correspond to variety of visual patterns, designing a universal approach to solve such tasks is difficult[10]. Add a Lindeberg, The local approaches took into account more feature spaces, such as color and texture, and applied learning methods for cue combination[35, 36, 37, 38, 6, 1, 2]. large-scale image recognition,, S.Ioffe and C.Szegedy, Batch normalization: Accelerating deep network As a result, the trained model yielded high precision on PASCAL VOC and BSDS500, and has achieved comparable performance with the state-of-the-art on BSDS500 after fine-tuning. Rich feature hierarchies for accurate object detection and semantic [46] generated a global interpretation of an image in term of a small set of salient smooth curves. 13. Convolutional Oriented Boundaries gives a significant leap in performance over the state-of-the-art, and generalizes very well to unseen categories and datasets, and learning to estimate not only contour strength but also orientation provides more accurate results. Given that over 90% of the ground truth is non-contour. At the same time, many works have been devoted to edge detection that responds to both foreground objects and background boundaries (Figure1 (b)). A fully convolutional encoder-decoder network is proposed to detect the general object contours [10]. Our network is trained end-to-end on PASCAL VOC with refined ground truth from inaccurate polygon annotations, yielding much higher precision in object contour . training by reducing internal covariate shift,, C.-Y. Note: In the encoder part, all of the pooling layers are max-pooling with a 22 window and a stride 2 (non-overlapping window). which is guided by Deeply-Supervision Net providing the integrated direct Figure7 shows that 1) the pretrained CEDN model yields a high precision but a low recall due to its object-selective nature and 2) the fine-tuned CEDN model achieves comparable performance (F=0.79) with the state-of-the-art method (HED)[47]. We will need more sophisticated methods for refining the COCO annotations. Note that we fix the training patch to.
