1 Nov 2023 | | Abstract: | Referring Expression Segmentation (RES) is an emerging task in computer
vision, which segments the target instances in images based on text
descriptions. However, its development is plagued by the expensive segmentation
labels. To address this issue, we propose a new learning task for RES called
Omni-supervised Referring Expression Segmentation (Omni-RES), which aims to
make full use of unlabeled, fully labeled and weakly labeled data, e.g.,
referring points or grounding boxes, for efficient RES training. To accomplish
this task, we also propose a novel yet strong baseline method for Omni-RES
based on the recently popular teacher-student learning, where where the weak
labels are not directly transformed into supervision signals but used as a
yardstick to select and refine high-quality pseudo-masks for teacher-student
learning. To validate the proposed Omni-RES method, we apply it to a set of
state-of-the-art RES models and conduct extensive experiments on a bunch of RES
datasets. The experimental results yield the obvious merits of Omni-RES than
the fully-supervised and semi-supervised training schemes. For instance, with
only 10% fully labeled data, Omni-RES can help the base model achieve 100%
fully supervised performance, and it also outperform the semi-supervised
alternative by a large margin, e.g., +14.93% on RefCOCO and +14.95% on
RefCOCO+, respectively. More importantly, Omni-RES also enable the use of
large-scale vision-langauges like Visual Genome to facilitate low-cost RES
training, and achieve new SOTA performance of RES, e.g., 80.66 on RefCOCO. | | Source: | arXiv, 2311.00397 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
