• Title: Deep Grouping Model for Unified Perceptual Parsing
• Authors: Zhiheng Li, Wenxuan Bao, Jiayang Zheng, Chenliang Xu
• Abstract summary: The perceptual-based grouping process produces a hierarchical and compositional image representation. We propose a deep grouping model (DGM) that tightly marries the two types of representations and defines a bottom-up and a top-down process for feature exchanging. The model achieves state-of-the-art results while having a small computational overhead compared to other contextual-based segmentation models.

• Abstract: The perceptual-based grouping process produces a hierarchical and compositional image representation that helps both human and machine vision systems recognize heterogeneous visual concepts. Examples can be found in the classical hierarchical superpixel segmentation or image parsing works. However, the grouping process is largely overlooked in modern CNN-based image segmentation networks due to many challenges, including the inherent incompatibility between the grid-shaped CNN feature map and the irregular-shaped perceptual grouping hierarchy. Overcoming these challenges, we propose a deep grouping model (DGM) that tightly marries the two types of representations and defines a bottom-up and a top-down process for feature exchanging. When evaluating the model on the recent Broden+ dataset for the unified perceptual parsing task, it achieves state-of-the-art results while having a small computational overhead compared to other contextual-based segmentation models. Furthermore, the DGM has better interpretability compared with modern CNN methods.

  Clustering is one of the most classic approaches in machine learning and data analysis. We propose feature extraction with clustering (FEC), which views feature extraction as a process of selecting representatives from data. FEC alternates between grouping pixels into individual clusters to abstract representatives and updating the deep features of pixels with current representatives.

  This work addresses weakly supervised semantic segmentation (WSSS), with the goal of bridging the gap between image-level annotations and pixel-level segmentation. We formulate WSSS as a novel group-wise learning task that explicitly models semantic dependencies in a group of images to estimate more reliable pseudo ground-truths. In particular, we devise a graph neural network (GNN) for group-wise semantic mining, wherein input images are represented as graph nodes.

  Co-Salient Object Detection (CoSOD) aims at discovering salient objects that repeatedly appear in a given query group containing two or more relevant images. One challenging issue is how to effectively capture co-saliency cues by modeling and exploiting inter-image relationships. We present an end-to-end collaborative aggregation-and-distribution network (CoADNet) to capture both salient and repetitive visual patterns from multiple images.

  A split-transform-merge strategy has been broadly used as an architectural constraint in convolutional neural networks for visual recognition tasks. We propose to exploit this strategy and combine it with our Visual Concept Reasoning Networks (VCRNet) to enable reasoning between high-level visual concepts. Our proposed model, VCRNet, consistently improves the performance by increasing the number of parameters by less than 1%.
