GUNNEL: Guided Mixup Augmentation and Multi-View Fusion for Aquatic Animal Segmentation

원문 초록

Recent years have witnessed great advances in object segmentation research. In addition to generic objects, aquatic animals have attracted research attention. Deep learning-based methods are widely used for aquatic animal segmentation and have achieved promising performance. However, there is a lack of challenging datasets for benchmarking. In this work, we build a new dataset dubbed Aquatic Animal Species. We also devise a novel GUided mixup augmeNtatioN and multi-modEl fusion for aquatic animaL segmentation (GUNNEL) that leverages the advantages of multiple segmentation models to effectively segment aquatic animals and improves the training performance by synthesizing hard samples. Extensive experiments demonstrated the superiority of our proposed framework over existing state-of-the-art instance segmentation methods.
