- Abstract summary: In this paper, contextual hints are exploited via learning a context-aware classifier.
Our method is model-agnostic and can be easily applied to generic segmentation models.
With only negligible additional parameters and +2% inference time, decent performance gain has been achieved on both small and large models.

- Abstract: Semantic segmentation is still a challenging task for parsing diverse
contexts in different scenes, thus the fixed classifier might not be able to
well address varying feature distributions during testing. Different from the
mainstream literature where the efficacy of strong backbones and effective
decoder heads has been well studied, in this paper, additional contextual hints
are instead exploited via learning a context-aware classifier whose content is
data-conditioned, decently adapting to different latent distributions. Since
only the classifier is dynamically altered, our method is model-agnostic and
can be easily applied to generic segmentation models. Notably, with only
negligible additional parameters and +2\% inference time, decent performance
gain has been achieved on both small and large models with challenging
benchmarks, manifesting substantial practical merits brought by our simple yet
effective method. The implementation is available at

In-context learning enables language models to adapt to downstream data or incorporate tasks by few samples as demonstrations within the prompts.
However, the performance of in-context learning can be unstable depending on the quality, format, or order of demonstrations.

Segmentation [40.09476732999614]
Mask proposal models have significantly improved the performance of zero-shot semantic segmentation.
The use of a background' embedding during training in these methods is problematic as the resulting model tends to over-learn and assign all unseen classes as the background class instead of their correct labels.
This paper proposes novel class enhancement losses to bypass the use of the background embbedding during training, and simultaneously exploit the semantic relationship between text embeddings and mask proposals by ranking the similarity scores.

State-of-the-art semantic segmentation methods require sufficient labeled data to achieve good results.
Few-shot segmentation is proposed to tackle this problem by learning a model that quickly adapts to new classes with a few labeled support samples.
Theses frameworks still face the challenge of generalization ability reduction on unseen classes due to inappropriate use of high-level semantic information.
