• Abstract summary: We present a simple masked separable attention (MSA) for camouflaged object detection. We first separate the multi-head self-attention into three parts, which are responsible for distinguishing the camouflaged objects from the background using different mask strategies. We propose to capture high-resolution semantic representations progressively based on a simple top-down decoder with the proposed MSA to attain precise segmentation results.

• Abstract: How to identify and segment camouflaged objects from the background is challenging. Inspired by the multi-head self-attention in Transformers, we present a simple masked separable attention (MSA) for camouflaged object detection. We first separate the multi-head self-attention into three parts, which are responsible for distinguishing the camouflaged objects from the background using different mask strategies. Furthermore, we propose to capture high-resolution semantic representations progressively based on a simple top-down decoder with the proposed MSA to attain precise segmentation results. These structures plus a backbone encoder form a new model, dubbed CamoFormer. Extensive experiments show that CamoFormer surpasses all existing state-of-the-art methods on three widely-used camouflaged object detection benchmarks. There are on average around 5% relative improvements over previous methods in terms of S-measure and weighted F-measure.

• Just a Hint: Point-Supervised Camouflaged Object Detection [4.38858748263547]
  Camouflaged Object Detection (COD) demands models to expeditiously and accurately distinguish objects seamlessly in the environment. We propose to fulfill this task with the help of only one point supervision. Specifically, by swiftly clicking on each object, we first adaptively expand the original point-based annotation to a reasonable hint area. Then, to avoid partial localization around discriminative parts, we propose an attention regulator to scatter model attention to the whole object.

  We design MonoMAE, a monocular 3D detector inspired by Masked Autoencoders. MonoMAE consists of two novel designs. The first is depth-aware masking that selectively masks certain parts of non-occluded object queries. The second is lightweight query completion that works with the depth-aware masking to learn to reconstruct and complete the masked object queries.

  We propose a framework for synthesizing camouflage data to enhance the detection of camouflaged objects in natural scenes. Our approach employs a generative model to produce realistic camouflage images, which can be used to train existing object detection models. Our framework outperforms the current state-of-the-art method on three datasets.

  We propose a behavior-inspired framework, called Multi-view Feature Fusion Network (MFFN), which mimics the human behaviors of finding indistinct objects in images. MFFN captures critical edge and semantic information by comparing and fusing extracted multi-view features. Our method performs favorably against existing state-of-the-art methods via training with the same data.

We argue that explicitly modeling the conspicuousness of camouflaged objects against their particular backgrounds can lead to a better understanding about camouflage and evolution of animals. We present the first ranking based COD network (Rank-Net) to simultaneously localize, segment and rank camouflaged objects.
