Towards robust referring image segmentation
Towards robust referring image segmentation

We propose a novel ranking loss function, named Bi-directional Exponential Angular Triplet Loss, to help learn an angularly separable common feature space by explicitly constraining the included angles between embedding vectors.

Towards open vocabulary learning: A survey
Towards open vocabulary learning: A survey

This survey offers a detailed examination of the latest developments in open vocabulary learning in computer vision, which appears to be a first of its kind. We provide an overview of the necessary background knowledge, which includes fundamental concepts and introductory knowledge of detection, segmentation, and vision language pre-training. Following that, we summarize more than 50 different models used for various scene understanding tasks. For each task, we categorize the methods based on their technical viewpoint. Additionally, we provide information regarding several closely related domains. In the experiment section, we provide a detailed description of the settings and compare results fairly. Finally, we summarize several challenges and also point out several future research directions for open vocabulary learning.

Betrayed by captions: Joint caption grounding and generation for open vocabulary instance segmentation
Betrayed by captions: Joint caption grounding and generation for open vocabulary instance segmentation

This paper presents a joint Caption Grounding and Generation (CGG) framework for instance-level open vocabulary segmentation. The main contributions are: (1) using fine-grained object nouns in captions to improve grounding with object queries. (2) using captions as supervision signals to extract rich information from other words helps identify novel categories. To our knowledge, this paper is the first to unify segmentation and caption generation for open vocabulary learning. The proposed framework significantly improves OVIS and OSPS and comparable results on OVOD without pre-training on large-scale datasets.
