Abstract
Image semantic segmentation is one of the core tasks of computer vision. It is widely used in fields such as unmanned driving, medical image processing, geographic information systems and intelligent robots. Aiming at the problem that the existing semantic segmentation algorithm ignores the different channel and location features of the feature map and the simple method when the feature map is fused, this paper designs a semantic segmentation algorithm that combines the attention mechanism. Firstly, dilated convolution is used, and a smaller downsampling factor is used to maintain the resolution of the image and obtain the detailed information of the image. Secondly, the attention mechanism module is introduced to assign weights to different parts of the feature map, which reduces the accuracy loss. The design feature fusion module assigns weights to the feature maps of different receptive fields obtained by the two paths, and merges them together to obtain the final segmentation result. Finally, through experiments, it was verified on the Camvid, Cityscapes and PASCAL VOC2012 datasets. Mean intersection over union (MIoU) and mean pixel accuracy (MPA) are used as metrics. The method in this paper can make up for the loss of accuracy caused by downsampling while ensuring the receptive field and improving the resolution, which can better guide the model learning. And the proposed feature fusion module can better integrate the features of different receptive fields. Therefore, the proposed method can significantly improve the segmentation performance compared to the traditional method.
