Weakly supervised learning has emerged as an appealing alternative to alleviate the need for large labeled datasets in semantic segmentation. Most current approaches exploit class activation maps (CAMs), which can be generated from image-level annotations. Nevertheless, resulting maps have been demonstrated to be highly discriminant, failing to serve as optimal proxy pixel-level labels. We present a novel learning strategy that leverages self-supervision in a multi-modal image scenario to significantly enhance original CAMs. In particular, the proposed method is based on two observations. First, the learning of fully-supervised segmentation networks implicitly imposes equivariance by means of data augmentation, whereas this implicit constraint disappears on CAMs generated with image tags. And second, the commonalities between image modalities can be employed as an efficient self-supervisory signal, correcting the inconsistency shown by CAMs obtained across multiple modalities. To effectively train our model, we integrate a novel loss function that includes a within-modality and a cross-modality equivariant term to explicitly impose these constraints during training. In addition, we add a KL-divergence on the class prediction distributions to facilitate the information exchange between modalities, which, combined with the equivariant regularizers further improves the performance of our model. Exhaustive experiments on the popular multi-modal BRATS dataset demonstrate that our approach outperforms relevant recent literature under the same learning conditions.

This paper studies the problem of learning semantic segmentation from image-level supervision only. Current popular solutions leverage object localization maps from classifiers as supervision signals, and struggle to make the localization maps captur
e more complete object content. Rather than previous efforts that primarily focus on intra-image information, we address the value of cross-image semantic relations for comprehensive object pattern mining. To achieve this, two neural co-attentions are incorporated into the classifier to complimentarily capture cross-image semantic similarities and differences. In particular, given a pair of training images, one co-attention enforces the classifier to recognize the common semantics from co-attentive objects, while the other one, called contrastive co-attention, drives the classifier to identify the unshared semantics from the rest, uncommon objects. This helps the classifier discover more object patterns and better ground semantics in image regions. In addition to boosting object pattern learning, the co-attention can leverage context from other related images to improve localization map inference, hence eventually benefiting semantic segmentation learning. More essentially, our algorithm provides a unified framework that handles well different WSSS settings, i.e., learning WSSS with (1) precise image-level supervision only, (2) extra simple single-label data, and (3) extra noisy web data. It sets new state-of-the-arts on all these settings, demonstrating well its efficacy and generalizability. Moreover, our approach ranked 1st place in the Weakly-Supervised Semantic Segmentation Track of CVPR2020 Learning from Imperfect Data Challenge.
Action detection and temporal segmentation of actions in videos are topics of increasing interest. While fully supervised systems have gained much attention lately, full annotation of each action within the video is costly and impractical for large a
mounts of video data. Thus, weakly supervised action detection and temporal segmentation methods are of great importance. While most works in this area assume an ordered sequence of occurring actions to be given, our approach only uses a set of actions. Such action sets provide much less supervision since neither action ordering nor the number of action occurrences are known. In exchange, they can be easily obtained, for instance, from meta-tags, while ordered sequences still require human annotation. We introduce a system that automatically learns to temporally segment and label actions in a video, where the only supervision that is used are action sets. An evaluation on three datasets shows that our method still achieves good results although the amount of supervision is significantly smaller than for other related methods.
Weakly supervised image segmentation trained with image-level labels usually suffers from inaccurate coverage of object areas during the generation of the pseudo groundtruth. This is because the object activation maps are trained with the classificat
ion objective and lack the ability to generalize. To improve the generality of the objective activation maps, we propose a region prototypical network RPNet to explore the cross-image object diversity of the training set. Similar object parts across images are identified via region feature comparison. Object confidence is propagated between regions to discover new object areas while background regions are suppressed. Experiments show that the proposed method generates more complete and accurate pseudo object masks, while achieving state-of-the-art performance on PASCAL VOC 2012 and MS COCO. In addition, we investigate the robustness of the proposed method on reduced training sets.
There are many approaches that use weak-supervision to train networks to segment 2D images. By contrast, existing 3D approaches rely on full-supervision of a subset of 2D slices of the 3D image volume. In this paper, we propose an approach that is tr
uly weakly-supervised in the sense that we only need to provide a sparse set of 3D point on the surface of target objects, an easy task that can be quickly done. We use the 3D points to deform a 3D template so that it roughly matches the target object outlines and we introduce an architecture that exploits the supervision provided by coarse template to train a network to find accurate boundaries. We evaluate the performance of our approach on Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imagery (MRI) and Electron Microscopy (EM) image datasets. We will show that it outperforms a more traditional approach to weak-supervision in 3D at a reduced supervision cost.
Pixel-wise clean annotation is necessary for fully-supervised semantic segmentation, which is laborious and expensive to obtain. In this paper, we propose a weakly supervised 2D semantic segmentation model by incorporating sparse bounding box labels
with available 3D information, which is much easier to obtain with advanced sensors. We manually labeled a subset of the 2D-3D Semantics(2D-3D-S) dataset with bounding boxes, and introduce our 2D-3D inference module to generate accurate pixel-wise segment proposal masks. Guided by 3D information, we first generate a point cloud of objects and calculate objectness probability score for each point. Then we project the point cloud with objectness probabilities back to 2D images followed by a refinement step to obtain segment proposals, which are treated as pseudo labels to train a semantic segmentation network. Our method works in a recursive manner to gradually refine the above-mentioned segment proposals. Extensive experimental results on the 2D-3D-S dataset show that the proposed method can generate accurate segment proposals when bounding box labels are available on only a small subset of training images. Performance comparison with recent state-of-the-art methods further illustrates the effectiveness of our method.
