Crowd segmentation is a fundamental task serving as the basis of crowded scene analysis, and it is highly desirable to obtain refined pixel-level segmentation maps. However, it remains a challenging problem, as existing approaches either require dense pixel-level annotations to train deep learning models or merely produce rough segmentation maps from optical or particle flows with physical models. In this paper, we propose the Motion Prior-Aware Siamese Network (MPASNET) for unsupervised crowd semantic segmentation. This model not only eliminates the need for annotation but also yields high-quality segmentation maps. Specially, we first analyze the coherent motion patterns across the frames and then apply a circular region merging strategy on the collective particles to generate pseudo-labels. Moreover, we equip MPASNET with siamese branches for augmentation-invariant regularization and siamese feature aggregation. Experiments over benchmark datasets indicate that our model outperforms the state-of-the-arts by more than 12% in terms of mIoU.

We study video crowd counting, which is to estimate the number of objects (people in this paper) in all the frames of a video sequence. Previous work on crowd counting is mostly on still images. There has been little work on how to properly extract a
nd take advantage of the spatial-temporal correlation between neighboring frames in both short and long ranges to achieve high estimation accuracy for a video sequence. In this work, we propose Monet, a novel and highly accurate motion-guided non-local spatial-temporal network for video crowd counting. Monet first takes people flow (motion information) as guidance to coarsely segment the regions of pixels where a person may be. Given these regions, Monet then uses a non-local spatial-temporal network to extract spatial-temporally both short and long-range contextual information. The whole network is finally trained end-to-end with a fused loss to generate a high-quality density map. Noting the scarcity and low quality (in terms of resolution and scene diversity) of the publicly available video crowd datasets, we have collected and built a large-scale video crowd counting datasets, VidCrowd, to contribute to the community. VidCrowd contains 9,000 frames of high resolution (2560 x 1440), with 1,150,239 head annotations captured in different scenes, crowd density and lighting in two cities. We have conducted extensive experiments on the challenging VideoCrowd and two public video crowd counting datasets: UCSD and Mall. Our approach achieves substantially better performance in terms of MAE and MSE as compared with other state-of-the-art approaches.
Crowd counting from unconstrained scene images is a crucial task in many real-world applications like urban surveillance and management, but it is greatly challenged by the cameras perspective that causes huge appearance variations in peoples scales
and rotations. Conventional methods address such challenges by resorting to fixed multi-scale architectures that are often unable to cover the largely varied scales while ignoring the rotation variations. In this paper, we propose a unified neural network framework, named Deep Recurrent Spatial-Aware Network, which adaptively addresses the two issues in a learnable spatial transform module with a region-wise refinement process. Specifically, our framework incorporates a Recurrent Spatial-Aware Refinement (RSAR) module iteratively conducting two components: i) a Spatial Transformer Network that dynamically locates an attentional region from the crowd density map and transforms it to the suitable scale and rotation for optimal crowd estimation; ii) a Local Refinement Network that refines the density map of the attended region with residual learning. Extensive experiments on four challenging benchmarks show the effectiveness of our approach. Specifically, comparing with the existing best-performing methods, we achieve an improvement of 12% on the largest dataset WorldExpo10 and 22.8% on the most challenging dataset UCF_CC_50.
We introduce a novel network, called CO-attention Siamese Network (COSNet), to address the unsupervised video object segmentation task from a holistic view. We emphasize the importance of inherent correlation among video frames and incorporate a glob
al co-attention mechanism to improve further the state-of-the-art deep learning based solutions that primarily focus on learning discriminative foreground representations over appearance and motion in short-term temporal segments. The co-attention layers in our network provide efficient and competent stages for capturing global correlations and scene context by jointly computing and appending co-attention responses into a joint feature space. We train COSNet with pairs of video frames, which naturally augments training data and allows increased learning capacity. During the segmentation stage, the co-attention model encodes useful information by processing multiple reference frames together, which is leveraged to infer the frequently reappearing and salient foreground objects better. We propose a unified and end-to-end trainable framework where different co-attention variants can be derived for mining the rich context within videos. Our extensive experiments over three large benchmarks manifest that COSNet outperforms the current alternatives by a large margin.
Automatic instrument segmentation in video is an essentially fundamental yet challenging problem for robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery. In this paper, we propose a novel framework to leverage instrument motion information, by incorporating a
derived temporal prior to an attention pyramid network for accurate segmentation. Our inferred prior can provide reliable indication of the instrument location and shape, which is propagated from the previous frame to the current frame according to inter-frame motion flow. This prior is injected to the middle of an encoder-decoder segmentation network as an initialization of a pyramid of attention modules, to explicitly guide segmentation output from coarse to fine. In this way, the temporal dynamics and the attention network can effectively complement and benefit each other. As additional usage, our temporal prior enables semi-supervised learning with periodically unlabeled video frames, simply by reverse execution. We extensively validate our method on the public 2017 MICCAI EndoVis Robotic Instrument Segmentation Challenge dataset with three different tasks. Our method consistently exceeds the state-of-the-art results across all three tasks by a large margin. Our semi-supervised variant also demonstrates a promising potential for reducing annotation cost in the clinical practice.
This paper addresses the task of unsupervised video multi-object segmentation. Current approaches follow a two-stage paradigm: 1) detect object proposals using pre-trained Mask R-CNN, and 2) conduct generic feature matching for temporal association u
sing re-identification techniques. However, the generic features, widely used in both stages, are not reliable for characterizing unseen objects, leading to poor generalization. To address this, we introduce a novel approach for more accurate and efficient spatio-temporal segmentation. In particular, to address textbf{instance discrimination}, we propose to combine foreground region estimation and instance grouping together in one network, and additionally introduce temporal guidance for segmenting each frame, enabling more accurate object discovery. For textbf{temporal association}, we complement current video object segmentation architectures with a discriminative appearance model, capable of capturing more fine-grained target-specific information. Given object proposals from the instance discrimination network, three essential strategies are adopted to achieve accurate segmentation: 1) target-specific tracking using a memory-augmented appearance model; 2) target-agnostic verification to trace possible tracklets for the proposal; 3) adaptive memory updating using the verified segments. We evaluate the proposed approach on DAVIS$_{17}$ and YouTube-VIS, and the results demonstrate that it outperforms state-of-the-art methods both in segmentation accuracy and inference speed.
