Image Segmentation With Language Referring Expression and Comprehension

Image segmentation with language referring expression can complete object segmentation based on expression text. Existing image segmentation methods show good results on high-performance computers, but most robot systems need real-time and high accuracy. At present, most methods cannot meet these requirements well. Therefore, we propose a high-precision and real-time deep learning network that integrates the two tasks of image segmentation with language referring expression and referring expression comprehension and then treats them as two branches. Specifically, the proposed network first merges the two tasks. The feature maps of different scales extracted by each branch are fed back to the two branches to obtain prediction results. These two tasks promote and restrict each other. Experiments show that our method has better real-time performance and higher accuracy than existing methods.
