Uncertainty Estimation via Response Scaling for Pseudo-mask Noise Mitigation in Weakly-supervised Semantic Segmentation
Introduction
This is a PyTorch implementation of Uncertainty Estimation via Response Scaling for Pseudo-mask Noise Mitigation in Weakly-supervised Semantic Segmentation (AAAI2022), based on mmsegmentation. Please refer the classification phase to PMM and refer the segmentation phase to WSSS_MMSeg.
In this papper, we mitigate the noise of pseudo-mask in segmentation phase via uncertainty from response scaling which simulates the behavior of noise. This technique is applicable to all weakly-supervised semantic segmentation methods based on fully-supervised semantic segmentation.
Preparation

Run the code
(If you don't run on server cluster based on srun, please modify the scripts "tools/dist_*.sh" refer to given scripts "tools/srun_*.sh")
Installation
cd URN
pip install mmcv==1.1.5
pip install -e .
(If you meet installation problems, please refer to mmsegmentation)
Train segmentation for the first time (you can skip it by intermediate weights)

Notes:
- We provide other backbones, including ResNet101, ScaleNet101, Wide-ResNet38
- Configs of COCO14 are provided in "configs/pspnet_wsss"
- It's suggested to use multiple cluster nodes to accelerate the genetation of pseudo-mask when use "tools/slurm_test.sh"
- Run "tools/run_pmm.sh" to get baselines of PMM
