Weakly-Supervised Semantic Segmentation

145 papers with code • 9 benchmarks • 8 datasets

The semantic segmentation task is to assign a label from a label set to each pixel in an image. In the case of fully supervised setting, the dataset consists of images and their corresponding pixel-level class-specific annotations (expensive pixel-level annotations). However, in the weakly-supervised setting, the dataset consists of images and corresponding annotations that are relatively easy to obtain, such as tags/labels of objects present in the image.

Background-Aware Pooling and Noise-Aware Loss for Weakly-Supervised Semantic Segmentation

cvlab-yonsei/BANA CVPR 2021

We address the problem of weakly-supervised semantic segmentation (WSSS) using bounding box annotations.

SQN: Weakly-Supervised Semantic Segmentation of Large-Scale 3D Point Clouds

QingyongHu/SQN 11 Apr 2021

Labelling point clouds fully is highly time-consuming and costly.

Pseudo-mask Matters in Weakly-supervised Semantic Segmentation

eli-yili/pmm ICCV 2021

For these matters, we propose the following designs to push the performance to new state-of-art: (i) Coefficient of Variation Smoothing to smooth the CAMs adaptively; (ii) Proportional Pseudo-mask Generation to project the expanded CAMs to pseudo-mask based on a new metric indicating the importance of each class on each location, instead of the scores trained from binary classifiers.

Adaptive Early-Learning Correction for Segmentation from Noisy Annotations

kangningthu/adele CVPR 2022

We discover a phenomenon that has been previously reported in the context of classification: the networks tend to first fit the clean pixel-level labels during an "early-learning" phase, before eventually memorizing the false annotations.

Cross Language Image Matching for Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation

cvi-szu/clims 5 Mar 2022

As only a fixed set of image-level object labels are available to the WSSS (weakly supervised semantic segmentation) model, it could be very difficult to suppress those diverse background regions consisting of open set objects.

RecurSeed and EdgePredictMix: Pseudo-Label Refinement Learning for Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation across Single- and Multi-Stage Frameworks

shjo-april/recurseed_and_edgepredictmix 14 Apr 2022

Although weakly supervised semantic segmentation using only image-level labels (WSSS-IL) is potentially useful, its low performance and implementation complexity still limit its application.

ReFit: A Framework for Refinement of Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation using Object Border Fitting for Medical Images

bharathprabakaran/refit 14 Mar 2023

Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation (WSSS) relying only on image-level supervision is a promising approach to deal with the need for Segmentation networks, especially for generating a large number of pixel-wise masks in a given dataset.

Prompting classes: Exploring the Power of Prompt Class Learning in Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation

ruxie189/wss_pole 30 Jun 2023

First, modifying only the class token of the text prompt results in a greater impact on the Class Activation Map (CAM), compared to arguably more complex strategies that optimize the context.

Background Activation Suppression for Weakly Supervised Object Localization and Semantic Segmentation

wpy1999/bas-extension 22 Sep 2023

In addition, our method also achieves state-of-the-art weakly supervised semantic segmentation performance on the PASCAL VOC 2012 and MS COCO 2014 datasets.

Learning without Exact Guidance: Updating Large-scale High-resolution Land Cover Maps from Low-resolution Historical Labels

lizhuohong/paraformer 5 Mar 2024

However, it is still a non-trivial task hindered by complex ground details, various landforms, and the scarcity of accurate training labels over a wide-span geographic area.
