IMAGE SEMANTIC SEGMENTATION METHOD AND APPARATUS

摘要

Disclosed are an image semantic segmentation method and an apparatus. The method comprises: based on a global apparent distance and a semantic distance of an image, determining a compatible reference set and a competitive reference set of a target image in an image library; segmenting each image in the target image, a compatible reference image that comprises the compatible reference set and a competitive reference image that comprises the competitive reference set into multiple areas; and based on semantic consistency and image correlation of the target image, the compatible reference image and the competitive reference image, determining a category of the areas of the target image. The image semantic segmentation method and the apparatus in embodiments of the present invention use the compatible reference set that is provided with a global apparent similar to the target image and the competitive reference set that is provided with a global apparent different from the target image and provided with a semantic similar to the compatible reference set as reference sets, which can provide complementation information for target image segmentation so as to reduce semantic erroneous judgment and thus accurate semantic segmentation and image content that meets semantic aware better can be obtained.
