Open-World Instance Segmentation (OWIS) is an emerging research topic that aims to segment class-agnostic object instances from images. The mainstream approaches use a two-stage segmentation framework, which first locates the candidate…
Recent object detection systems rely on two critical steps: (1) a set of object proposals is predicted as efficiently as possible, and (2) this set of candidate proposals is then passed to an object classifier. Such approaches have been…
Existing video instance segmentation (VIS) approaches generally follow a closed-world assumption, where only seen category instances are identified and spatio-temporally segmented at inference. Open-world formulation relaxes the close-world…
