Researchers have identified structural issues with post-hoc calibration methods when applied to semantic segmentation tasks. The study highlights that some standard calibration techniques are sensitive to arbitrary constant shifts in model logits, leading to inconsistent results. Additionally, the common practice of fitting calibration using likelihood-based objectives can degrade the segmentation map quality due to a mismatch with the task-specific metrics used during model training. The paper proposes translation-invariant and decision-preserving calibration variants that improve calibration metrics and prevent segmentation degradation across various benchmarks. AI
