• Title: Joint Learning of Instance and Semantic Segmentation for Robotic Pick-and-Place with Heavy Occlusions in Clutter
• Authors: Kentaro Wada, Kei Okada, Masayuki Inaba
• Abstract summary: We present a joint learning of instance and semantic segmentation for visible and occluded region masks. In the experiments, we evaluated the proposed joint learning comparing the instance-only learning on the test dataset. We also applied the joint learning model to 2 different types of robotic pick-and-place tasks.

• Abstract: We present joint learning of instance and semantic segmentation for visible and occluded region masks. Sharing the feature extractor with instance occlusion segmentation, we introduce semantic occlusion segmentation into the instance segmentation model. This joint learning fuses the instance- and image-level reasoning of the mask prediction on the different segmentation tasks, which was missing in the previous work of learning instance segmentation only (instance-only). In the experiments, we evaluated the proposed joint learning comparing the instance-only learning on the test dataset. We also applied the joint learning model to 2 different types of robotic pick-and-place tasks (random and target picking) and evaluated its effectiveness to achieve real-world robotic tasks.

• Semantic-SAM: Segment and Recognize Anything at Any Granularity [83.64686655044765]
  We introduce Semantic-SAM, a universal image segmentation model to enable segment and recognize anything at any desired granularity. We consolidate multiple datasets across three granularities and introduce decoupled classification for objects and parts. For the multi-granularity capability, we propose a multi-choice learning scheme during training, enabling each click to generate masks at multiple levels.

• Self-Supervised Instance Segmentation by Grasping [84.2469669256257]
  We learn a grasp segmentation model to segment the grasped object from before and after grasp images. Using the segmented objects, we can "cut" objects from their original scenes and "paste" them into new scenes to generate instance supervision. We show that our grasp segmentation model provides a 5x error reduction when segmenting grasped objects compared with traditional image subtraction approaches.

  State-of-the-art deep neural network models require large amounts of labeled data in order to perform well in this task. We propose for the first time, an iterative learning and annotation method that is able to detect, segment and annotate instances in datasets composed of multiple similar objects. Experiments on two different datasets show the validity of the approach in different applications related to visual inspection.
