Weakly Supervised Instance Segmentation/Evidence
Method evidence record

Weakly Supervised Instance Segmentation

Weakly supervised instance segmentation trains deep networks to delineate individual object instances at pixel level using only cheap, incomplete annotations — such as bounding boxes, image-level labels, or point clicks — rather than costly full pixel-wise masks. It dramatically reduces annotation effort while still producing instance-level masks for each object in an image.
