Fine-Tuning Instance Segmentation Models
The object instance segmentation models utilize results from the object detection models. Therefore, all the techniques introduced in the previous chapters for fine-tuning object detection models work the same for object instance segmentation models. However, object instance segmentation has an important feature to fine-tune: the quality of the boundaries of the detected objects. Therefore, this chapter introduces PointRend, a project inside Detectron2 that helps improve the object boundaries’ sharpness.
By the end of this chapter, you will be able to understand how PointRend works. You will also have hands-on experience developing object instance segmentation applications with better segmentation quality using existing PointRend models. Additionally, you can train an object instance segmentation application using PointRend on a custom dataset. Specifically, this chapter covers the following topics:
