Rewis3d: Reconstruction Improves Weakly-Supervised Semantic Segmentation

CVPR 2026

We present Rewis3d, a framework that leverages recent advances in feed-forward 3D reconstruction to significantly improve weakly supervised semantic segmentation on 2D images. Obtaining dense, pixel-level annotations remains a costly bottleneck for training segmentation models. Alleviating this issu

Robust Promptable Video Object Segmentation

CVPR 2026

The performance of promptable video object segmentation (PVOS) models substantially degrades under input corruptions, which prevents PVOS deployment in safety-critical domains. This paper offers the first comprehensive study on robust PVOS (RobustPVOS). We first construct a new, comprehensive benchm

GaRA-SAM: Robustifying Segment Anything Model with Gated-Rank Adaptation

NeurIPS 2025poster

Improving robustness of the Segment Anything Model (SAM) to input degradations is critical for its deployment in high-stakes applications such as autonomous driving and robotics. Our approach to this challenge prioritizes three key aspects: first, parameter efficiency to maintain the inherent genera…

DGInStyle: Domain-Generalizable Semantic Segmentation with Image Diffusion Models and Stylized Semantic Control

ECCV 2024poster

"Large, pretrained latent diffusion models (LDMs) have demonstrated an extraordinary ability to generate creative content, specialize to user data through few-shot fine-tuning, and condition their output on other modalities, such as semantic maps. However, are they usable as large-scale data generat…

SILC: Improving Vision Language Pretraining with Self-Distillation

ECCV 2024poster

"Image-Text pretraining on web-scale image caption datasets has become the default recipe for open vocabulary classification and retrieval models thanks to the success of CLIP and its variants. Several works have also used CLIP features for dense prediction tasks and have shown the emergence of open…

Scribbles for All: Benchmarking Scribble Supervised Segmentation Across Datasets

NeurIPS 2024spotlight

In this work, we introduce *Scribbles for All*, a label and training data generation algorithm for semantic segmentation trained on scribble labels. Training or fine-tuning semantic segmentation models with weak supervision has become an important topic recently and was subject to significant advanc…

EDAPS: Enhanced Domain-Adaptive Panoptic Segmentation

ICCV 2023poster

With autonomous industries on the rise, domain adaptation of the visual perception stack is an important research direction due to the cost savings promise. Much prior art was dedicated to domain-adaptive semantic segmentation in the synthetic-to-real context. Despite being a crucial output of the p…

MIC: Masked Image Consistency for Context-Enhanced Domain Adaptation

CVPR 2023poster

In unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA), a model trained on source data (e.g. synthetic) is adapted to target data (e.g. real-world) without access to target annotation. Most previous UDA methods struggle with classes that have a similar visual appearance on the target domain as no ground truth is a…

DAFormer: Improving Network Architectures and Training Strategies for Domain-Adaptive Semantic Segmentation

CVPR 2022poster

As acquiring pixel-wise annotations of real-world images for semantic segmentation is a costly process, a model can instead be trained with more accessible synthetic data and adapted to real images without requiring their annotations. This process is studied in unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA).…

HRDA: Context-Aware High-Resolution Domain-Adaptive Semantic Segmentation

ECCV 2022poster

"Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) aims to adapt a model trained on the source domain (e.g. synthetic data) to the target domain (e.g. real-world data) without requiring further annotations on the target domain. This work focuses on UDA for semantic segmentation as real-world pixel-wise annotatio…

Domain Adaptive Semantic Segmentation With Self-Supervised Depth Estimation

ICCV 2021poster

Domain adaptation for semantic segmentation aims to improve the model performance in the presence of a distribution shift between source and target domain. Leveraging the supervision from auxiliary tasks (such as depth estimation) has the potential to heal this shift because many visual tasks are cl…

Three Ways To Improve Semantic Segmentation With Self-Supervised Depth Estimation

CVPR 2021poster

Training deep networks for semantic segmentation requires large amounts of labeled training data, which presents a major challenge in practice, as labeling segmentation masks is a highly labor-intensive process. To address this issue, we present a framework for semi-supervised semantic segmentation,…

Grid Saliency for Context Explanations of Semantic Segmentation

NeurIPS 2019poster

Recently, there has been a growing interest in developing saliency methods that provide visual explanations of network predictions. Still, the usability of existing methods is limited to image classification models. To overcome this limitation, we extend the existing approaches to generate grid sali…
