Semantic Connectivity-aware Learning

SCL (Semantic Connectivity-aware Learning) framework, which introduces a SC Loss (Semantic Connectivity-aware Loss) to improve the quality of segmentation results from the perspective of connectivity. SCL can improve the integrity of segmentation objects and increase segmentation accuracy. Support multi-class segmentation. [Source code]

Perfermance on Cityscapes

The experimental results on our Teleconferencing Video Dataset are shown in paper, and the experimental results on Cityscapes are as follows:

PP-HumanSeg14K: A Large-Scale Teleconferencing Video Dataset

A large-scale video portrait dataset that contains 291 videos from 23 conference scenes with 14K frames. This dataset contains various teleconferencing scenes, various actions of the participants, interference of passers-by and illumination change. The data can be obtained by sending an email to paddleseg@baidu.com via an official email (not use qq, gmail, etc.) including your institution/company information and the purpose on the dataset.
