Abstract | Superpixel, an efficient image segmentation approach, aggregates a group of similar pixels into the same cluster. Existing superpixel algorithms still mainly focus on the color information while ignoring the semantic distribution knowledge. In this paper, we propose a semantic information-driven method that adopts multi-channel semantic probabilities for superpixel segmentation. By conducting statistical analysis on the semantic output and then formulating the distance measure, the prior knowledge of the semantic with a dynamic confidence value could be utilized by our method during the global update effectively. Extensive experimental evaluations show that our method achieves a leading segmentation quality and convergence speed, compared to other five state-of-the-art algorithms, as measured by boundary recall, undersegmentation error, and explained variation. |
