Abstract:
The good fusion of multi-scale features obtained by Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is key to semantic edge detection; however, obtaining fusion is challenging. This paper presents a Multi-scale Spatial Context-based deep network for Semantic Edge Detection (MSC-SED). Different from state-of-the-art methods, MSC-SED gradually fuses multi-scale low-to-high level CNN features in an end-to-end architecture. This fusion structure obtains rich multi-scale features while enhancing the details of higher-level features. Beside the overall structure, we present the following two functional modules: the Context Aggregation Module (CAM) and Location-Aware fusion Module (LAM). The CAM helps to enrich context in features at each stage, before and after fusion. The LAM helps to selectively integrate lower-level features. The proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art approaches in terms of both the edge quality and the accuracy of edge categorization on both the SBD and Cityscapes datasets.
