• Abstract summary: Placing Objects in Context (POC) is a pipeline to realistically add objects to an image. POC can be used to extend any dataset with an arbitrary number of objects. We present different anomaly segmentation datasets based on POC-generated data and show that POC can improve the performance of recent state-of-the-art anomaly fine-tuning methods.

• Abstract: When deploying a semantic segmentation model into the real world, it will inevitably encounter semantic classes that were not seen during training. To ensure a safe deployment of such systems, it is crucial to accurately evaluate and improve their anomaly segmentation capabilities. However, acquiring and labelling semantic segmentation data is expensive and unanticipated conditions are long-tail and potentially hazardous. Indeed, existing anomaly segmentation datasets capture a limited number of anomalies, lack realism or have strong domain shifts. In this paper, we propose the Placing Objects in Context (POC) pipeline to realistically add any object into any image via diffusion models. POC can be used to easily extend any dataset with an arbitrary number of objects. In our experiments, we present different anomaly segmentation datasets based on POC-generated data and show that POC can improve the performance of recent state-of-the-art anomaly fine-tuning methods across several standardized benchmarks. POC is also effective for learning new classes. For example, we utilize it to augment Cityscapes samples by incorporating a subset of Pascal classes and demonstrate that models trained on such data achieve comparable performance to the Pascal-trained baseline. This corroborates the low synth2real gap of models trained on POC-generated images. Code: https://github.com/naver/poc

• Physically Feasible Semantic Segmentation [58.17907376475596]
  State-of-the-art semantic segmentation models are typically optimized in a data-driven fashion, minimizing solely per-pixel or per-segment classification objectives on their training data. This purely data-driven paradigm often leads to absurd segmentations, especially when the domain of input images is shifted from the one encountered during training. Our method, Physically Feasible Semantic (PhyFea), first extracts explicit constraints that govern spatial class relations from the semantic segmentation training set at hand in an offline data-driven fashion, and then enforces a morphological yet differentiable loss that penalizes violations of these constraints during

By segmenting and permuting temporal segments or human body parts, we design two self-supervised learning classification tasks.

  This paper identifies and addresses a serious design bias of existing salient object detection (SOD) datasets. This design bias has led to a saturation in performance for state-of-the-art SOD models when evaluated on existing datasets. We propose a new high-quality dataset and update the previous saliency benchmark.

We present a process for semantic segmentation at super-resolution for obtaining crop classes at a more granular level.
