Researchers have developed a novel pipeline for instance segmentation that efficiently utilizes both expensive pixel-wise labels and cheaper bounding box labels. The method incorporates two auxiliary models designed to suppress label noise, specifically distinguishing foreground from background and correcting mislabeled instances. By employing category-aware spatial attention, category constraints, instance constraints, and a self-learning approach, the system generates accurate pseudo pixel-wise labels from bounding box annotations, significantly reducing labeling costs while maintaining competitive performance on datasets like PASCAL VOC 2012 and Cityscapes.
