In this study we propose a new strategy to perform an object segmentation using a multi neural network approach. We started extending our previously presented object detection method applying a new segment based classification strategy. The result obtained is a segmentation map post processed by a phase that exploits the GrabCut algorithm to obtain a fairly precise and sharp edges of the object of interest in a full automatic way. We tested the new strategy on a clothing commercial dataset obtaining a substantial improvement on the quality of the segmentation results compared with our previous method. The segment classification approach we propose achieves the same improvement on a subset of the Pascal VOC 2011 dataset which is a recent standard segmentation dataset, obtaining a result which is inline with the state of the art.

Abstract

In this study we propose a new strategy to perform an object segmentation using a multi neural network approach. We started extending our previously presented object detection method applying a new segment based classification strategy. The result obtained is a segmentation map post processed by a phase that exploits the GrabCut algorithm to obtain a fairly precise and sharp edges of the object of interest in a full automatic way. We tested the new strategy on a clothing commercial dataset obtaining a substantial improvement on the quality of the segmentation results compared with our previous method. The segment classification approach we propose achieves the same improvement on a subset of the Pascal VOC 2011 dataset which is a recent standard segmentation dataset, obtaining a result which is inline with the state of the art.
