Semantic segmentation is a pixel-level classification problem in computer vision, in which pixels of the same class are grouped into a single category in order to interpret pictures at the pixel level. In this field, semantic segmentation of street fashion images is a challenging task since the clothing items would appear with wide variations in fabrics, layering, occlusion and viewpoint. To help better understanding the street fashion images, we propose a lightweight Semantic Context Aware Transformer (SCAT) to be applied to the semantic segmentation task for street fashion images, which integrates semantic context into the encoding, and models the relationship between multi-level outputs from transformer layers. Extensive experiments and comparisons show that the proposal achieves the state-of-the-art results on ModaNet dataset with relatively small model size, with over 1.1 point improvement compared to Shunted Transformer, and even surpasses other CNNs and Transformers with a large margin of over 2 point in mIoU.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
