Semi-supevised Semantic Segmentation with High- and Low-level Consistency
This Pytorch repository contains the code for our work Semi-supervised Semantic Segmentation with High- and Low-level Consistency. The approach uses two network branches that link semi-supervised classification with semi-supervised segmentation including self-training. The approach attains significant improvement over existing methods, especially when trained with very few labeled samples. On several standard benchmarks - PASCAL VOC 2012,PASCAL-Context, and Cityscapes - the approach achieves new state-of-the-art in semi-supervised learning.
We propose a two-branch approach to the task of semi-supervised semantic segmentation. The lower branch predicts pixel-wise class labels and is referred to as the Semi-Supervised Semantic Segmentation GAN(s4GAN). The upper branch performs image-level classification and is denoted as the Multi-Label Mean Teacher(MLMT).
Here, this repository contains the source code for the s4GAN branch. MLMT branch is adapted from Mean-Teacher work for semi-supervised classification. Instructions for setting up the MLMT branch are given below.
