• Abstract summary: We propose a depth-operated triOD network called DCTNet for video salient object detection (VS) To this end, we first generate depth from RGB frames, and then propose an approach to treat the three modalities unequally. We also introduce a refinement fusion module (RFM) to suppress noises in each modality and select useful information dynamically for further feature refinement.

• Abstract: Depth can provide useful geographical cues for salient object detection (SOD), and has been proven helpful in recent RGB-D SOD methods. However, existing video salient object detection (VSOD) methods only utilize spatiotemporal information and seldom exploit depth information for detection. In this paper, we propose a depth-cooperated trimodal network, called DCTNet for VSOD, which is a pioneering work to incorporate depth information to assist VSOD. To this end, we first generate depth from RGB frames, and then propose an approach to treat the three modalities unequally. Specifically, a multi-modal attention module (MAM) is designed to model multi-modal long-range dependencies between the main modality (RGB) and the two auxiliary modalities (depth, optical flow). We also introduce a refinement fusion module (RFM) to suppress noises in each modality and select useful information dynamically for further feature refinement. Lastly, a progressive fusion strategy is adopted after the refined features to achieve final cross-modal fusion. Experiments on five benchmark datasets demonstrate the superiority of our depth-cooperated model against 12 state-of-the-art methods, and the necessity of depth is also validated.

  We propose a novel Hierarchical Depth Awareness network (HiDAnet) for RGB-D saliency detection. Our motivation comes from the observation that the multi-granularity properties of geometric priors correlate well with the neural network hierarchies. Our HiDAnet performs favorably over the state-of-the-art methods by large margins.

  Approaches to monocular 3D perception including detection and tracking often yield inferior performance when compared to LiDAR-based techniques. We propose a multi-level fusion method that combines different representations (RGB and pseudo-LiDAR) and temporal information across multiple frames for objects (tracklets) to enhance per-object depth estimation.

  We propose a novel multi-task and multi-modal filtered transformer (MMFT) network for RGB-D salient object detection (SOD) Specifically, we unify three complementary tasks: depth estimation, salient object detection and contour estimation. The multi-task mechanism promotes the model to learn the task-aware features from the auxiliary tasks. Experiments show that it not only significantly surpasses the depth-based RGB-D SOD methods on multiple datasets, but also precisely predicts a high-quality depth map and salient contour at the same time.
