Abstract:Recognizing an image and segmenting it into coherent regions are often treated as separate tasks. Human vision, however, has a general sense of segmentation hierarchy before recognition occurs. We are thus inspired to learn image recognition with hierarchical image segmentation based entirely on unlabeled images. Our insight is to learn fine-to-coarse features concurrently at superpixels, segments, and full image levels, enforcing consistency and goodness of feature induced segmentations while maximizing discr… Show more
