Holistic Correction with Object Prototype for Video Object Segmentation

Recently, memory-based methods have achieved progress in semi-supervised video object segmentation. However, these methods still suffer from unstructured challenges, such as object transformations, occlusions and disappearance-reappearance. To this end, we propose a Holistic Correction Network (HCNet) to adaptively acquire concise object prototypes for holistic correction at semantic, spatial and temporal aspects. Specifically, an Adaptive Prototype Update module is firstly designed to construct multi-level core object representations by associating object variations in consecutive frames with segmentation quality assessment. Based on the updated object prototypes, Semantic, Spatial and Temporal Correction modules are respectively designed to enhance the object semantics in the entire frame, eliminate the incorrect semantic enhancement outside the object regions and calibrate the estimated object regions with temporal changes of objects. Through the holistic correction mechanism with effective object prototypes, our proposed HCNet can robustly and efficiently deal with diverse complex scenarios. Extensive and comprehensive experiments conducted on seven datasets demonstrate that our proposed HCNet can significantly improve the segmentation performance.
