Resumen
The key to semi-supervised semantic segmentation is to assign the appropriate pseudo-label to the pixels of unlabeled images. Recently, various approaches to consistency-based training and the filtering of reliable pseudo-labels have shown remarkable results. Nonetheless, there are still issues to be addressed. We find that recent approaches have specific problems in common. In pseudo-labels for training unlabeled images, we confirm that false foreground class pseudo-labels are mostly caused by background class confusion, not confusion between different foreground classes. To solve this problem, we propose a foreground and background discrimination model for semi-supervised semantic segmentation. Our proposed model is trained using a novel approach called multi-view integrated ensemble (MVIE) via output perturbation. Experimental results in various partition protocols show that our approach outperforms the existing state of the art (SOTA) in binary prediction on unlabeled data, and the segmentation model trained with the help of our model outperforms existing models.
