AI总结:
提出ESG流水线,通过新数据集EntitySeg和两阶段解耦设计(CropFormer高质量分割+GELLA精确名词提取与语义匹配),实现高质量实体分割与定位,在五项任务上有效。
摘要:
在这项工作中,我们提出了ESG,一个由新数据集EntitySeg支持的高质量实体分割与定位流水线。首先,所提出的数据集命名为EntitySeg,包含跨越各种图像域和实体的图像,以及用于训练和测试的大量高分辨率图像和高质量掩码标注。然后,ESG主要由两个模块组成:用于高质量实体分割的CropFormer,以及用于从句子中精确提取名词并在语言和视觉区域之间进行语义匹配的GELLA。与现有联合训练分割和大语言模型的定位方法不同,ESG采用两阶段解耦设计,保留了高质量掩码和定位鲁棒性,避免了联合训练通常带来的权衡。CropFormer确保高质量实体分割结果,然后可以编码到GELLA模型中进行有效定位。大量实验结果表明,我们提出的流水线在五项任务上有效,包括实体分割、全景分割、开放词汇分割、指代分割和全景定位叙述。此外,ESG流水线的GELLA模块高度灵活,能够处理来自任何分割框架的掩码输入,这得益于其轻量级的颜色图/视觉编码器、语言/掩码解码器和关联模块。实体分割数据集和定位代码将在https://github.com/qqlu/Entity发布。
英文摘要:
In this work, we propose ESG, a pipeline for high-quality entity segmentation and grounding supported by a new dataset EntitySeg. At first, the proposed dataset naming EntitySeg contains images spanning various image domains and entities, along with plentiful high-resolution images and high-quality mask annotations for training and testing. Then, the ESG mainly consists of two modules: CropFormer for high-quality entity segmentation whereas GELLA for accurate noun extraction from sentences and semantic matching between language and visual regions. Unlike existing grounding methods that jointly train a segmentation and a large language model, ESG adopts a two-stage decoupled design, preserving high-quality masks and grounding robustness without the trade-offs often introduced by joint training. CropFormer ensures high-quality entity segmentation results, which can then be encoded into the GELLA model for effective grounding. Extensive experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed pipeline across five tasks, including entity segmentation, panoptic segmentation, open-vocabulary segmentation, referring segmentation, and panoptic localized narratives. Furthermore, GELLA module of ESG pipeline is highly flexible and capable of processing mask inputs from any segmentation framework, thanks to its lightweight colormap/vision encoder, language/mask decoder, and association module. The entity segmentation dataset and grounding code will be released at https://github.com/qqlu/Entity.
