• Abstract: Despite rapid progress in scene segmentation in recent years, 3D segmentation methods are still limited when there is severe occlusion. The key challenge is estimating the segment boundaries of (partially) occluded objects, which are inherently ambiguous when considering only a single frame. In this work, we propose Multihypothesis Segmentation Tracking (MST), a novel method for volumetric segmentation in changing scenes, which allows scene ambiguity to be tracked and our estimates to be adjusted over time as we interact with the scene. Two main innovations allow us to tackle this difficult problem: 1) A novel way to sample possible segmentations from a segmentation tree; and 2) A novel approach to fusing tracking results with multiple segmentation estimates. These methods allow MST to track the segmentation state over time and incorporate new information, such as new objects being revealed. We evaluate our method on several cluttered tabletop environments in simulation and reality. Our results show that MST outperforms baselines in all tested scenes.

• Temporal Segment Transformer for Action Segmentation [54.25103250496069]
  We propose an attention based approach which we call textittemporal segment transformer, for joint segment relation modeling and denoising. The main idea is to denoise segment representations using attention between segment and frame representations, and also use inter-segment attention to capture temporal correlations between segments. We show that this novel architecture achieves state-of-the-art accuracy on the popular 50Salads, GTEA and Breakfast benchmarks.

We propose a matching algorithm that constrains the temporal order of segment mapping, and is also differentiable.

  We propose Contextual Guided (CGS) framework for video instance segmentation in three passes.

In the second pass, i.e., contextual segmentation, we introduce multiple contextual segmentation schemes. Experiments conducted on the DAVIS Test-Challenge dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed framework.

• Exposing Semantic Segmentation Failures via Maximum Discrepancy Competition [102.75463782627791]
  We take steps toward answering the question by exposing failures of existing semantic segmentation methods in the open visual world. Inspired by previous research on model falsification, we start from an arbitrarily large image set, and automatically sample a small image set by MAximizing the Discrepancy (MAD) between two segmentation methods. The selected images have the greatest potential in falsifying either (or both) of the two methods. A segmentation method, whose failures are more difficult to be exposed in the MAD competition, is considered better.
