Computer vision technology is widely used in biological and medical data analysis and understanding. However, there are still two major bottlenecks in the field of cell membrane segmentation, which seriously hinder further research: lack of sufficient high-quality data and lack of suitable evaluation criteria. In order to solve these two problems, this paper first proposes an Ultra-high Resolution Image Segmentation dataset for the Cell membrane, called U-RISC, the largest annotated Electron Microscopy (EM) dataset for the Cell membrane with multiple iterative annotations and uncompressed high-resolution raw data. During the analysis process of the U-RISC, we found that the current popular segmentation evaluation criteria are inconsistent with human perception. This interesting phenomenon is confirmed by a subjective experiment involving twenty people. Furthermore, to resolve this inconsistency, we propose a new evaluation criterion called Perceptual Hausdorff Distance (PHD) to measure the quality of cell membrane segmentation results. Detailed performance comparison and discussion of classic segmentation methods along with two iterative manual annotation results under existing evaluation criteria and PHD is given.

Segmentation of ultra-high resolution images is increasingly demanded, yet poses significant challenges for algorithm efficiency, in particular considering the (GPU) memory limits. Current approaches either downsample an ultra-high resolution image o
r crop it into small patches for separate processing. In either way, the loss of local fine details or global contextual information results in limited segmentation accuracy. We propose collaborative Global-Local Networks (GLNet) to effectively preserve both global and local information in a highly memory-efficient manner. GLNet is composed of a global branch and a local branch, taking the downsampled entire image and its cropped local patches as respective inputs. For segmentation, GLNet deeply fuses feature maps from two branches, capturing both the high-resolution fine structures from zoomed-in local patches and the contextual dependency from the downsampled input. To further resolve the potential class imbalance problem between background and foreground regions, we present a coarse-to-fine variant of GLNet, also being memory-efficient. Extensive experiments and analyses have been performed on three real-world ultra-high aerial and medical image datasets (resolution up to 30 million pixels). With only one single 1080Ti GPU and less than 2GB memory used, our GLNet yields high-quality segmentation results and achieves much more competitive accuracy-memory usage trade-offs compared to state-of-the-arts.
Distortion quantification of point clouds plays a stealth, yet vital role in a wide range of human and machine perception tasks. For human perception tasks, a distortion quantification can substitute subjective experiments to guide 3D visualization;
while for machine perception tasks, a distortion quantification can work as a loss function to guide the training of deep neural networks for unsupervised learning tasks. To handle a variety of demands in many applications, a distortion quantification needs to be distortion discriminable, differentiable, and have a low computational complexity. Currently, however, there is a lack of a general distortion quantification that can satisfy all three conditions. To fill this gap, this work proposes multiscale potential energy discrepancy (MPED), a distortion quantification to measure point cloud geometry and color difference. By evaluating at various neighborhood sizes, the proposed MPED achieves global-local tradeoffs, capturing distortion in a multiscale fashion. Extensive experimental studies validate MPEDs superiority for both human and machine perception tasks.
Ultra-high resolution image segmentation has raised increasing interests in recent years due to its realistic applications. In this paper, we innovate the widely used high-resolution image segmentation pipeline, in which an ultra-high resolution imag
e is partitioned into regular patches for local segmentation and then the local results are merged into a high-resolution semantic mask. In particular, we introduce a novel locality-aware contextual correlation based segmentation model to process local patches, where the relevance between local patch and its various contexts are jointly and complementarily utilized to handle the semantic regions with large variations. Additionally, we present a contextual semantics refinement network that associates the local segmentation result with its contextual semantics, and thus is endowed with the ability of reducing boundary artifacts and refining mask contours during the generation of final high-resolution mask. Furthermore, in comprehensive experiments, we demonstrate that our model outperforms other state-of-the-art methods in public benchmarks.

Temporal consistency is crucial for extending image processing pipelines to the video domain, which is often enforced with flow-based warping error over adjacent frames. Yet for human video synthesis, such scheme is less reliable due to the misalignm
ent between source and target video as well as the difficulty in accurate flow estimation. In this paper, we propose an effective intrinsic temporal regularization scheme to mitigate these issues, where an intrinsic confidence map is estimated via the frame generator to regulate motion estimation via temporal loss modulation. This creates a shortcut for back-propagating temporal loss gradients directly to the front-end motion estimator, thus improving training stability and temporal coherence in output videos. We apply our intrinsic temporal regulation to single-image generator, leading to a powerful INTERnet capable of generating $512times512$ resolution human action videos with temporal-coherent, realistic visual details. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of proposed INTERnet over several competitive baselines.
Semantic segmentation requires per-pixel prediction for a given image. Typically, the output resolution of a segmentation network is severely reduced due to the downsampling operations in the CNN backbone. Most previous methods employ upsampling deco
ders to recover the spatial resolution. Various decoders were designed in the literature. Here, we propose a novel decoder, termed dynamic neural representational decoder (NRD), which is simple yet significantly more efficient. As each location on the encoders output corresponds to a local patch of the semantic labels, in this work, we represent these local patches of labels with compact neural networks. This neural representation enables our decoder to leverage the smoothness prior in the semantic label space, and thus makes our decoder more efficient. Furthermore, these neural representations are dynamically generated and conditioned on the outputs of the encoder networks. The desired semantic labels can be efficiently decoded from the neural representations, resulting in high-resolution semantic segmentation predictions. We empirically show that our proposed decoder can outperform the decoder in DeeplabV3+ with only 30% computational complexity, and achieve competitive performance with the methods using dilated encoders with only 15% computation. Experiments on the Cityscapes, ADE20K, and PASCAL Context datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed method.
