ROCOCO model advances occluded object completion using flow matching

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed ROCOCO, a novel generative model for completing occluded curvilinear objects, utilizing a flow matching-based approach. This method can inpaint occluded regions without prior knowledge of the occlusion, thanks to a U-Net-based mask prediction model. Experiments show ROCOCO significantly outperforms off-the-shelf inpainting baselines when no mask is provided and is competitive with mask-supervised methods, achieving superior full-image error with a much smaller parameter count than LaMa and Stable Diffusion.

    ROCOCO: Robust Outline Completion of Occluded Curvilinear Objects

    arXiv:2610.29177v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose a learning-based generative model for completing curvilinear features under occlusion by environmental obstacles. To this end, we adopt a flow matching-based approach that supports the inpainting of occluded regions wit…
