Fast Camouflaged Object Detection via Edge-based Reversible Re-calibration Network

作者:

Highlights:

• We propose a novel architecture called Edge-based Reversible Re-calibration Network (ERRNet) for camouflaged object detection. It advances the state-of-the-art performance with real-time inference speed on eight challenging datasets.

• We design an aggregation strategy, Selective Edge Aggregation (SEA), to obtain initial edge prior, which can well alleviate the “ambiguous” problem of weak boundaries.

• To model the cross-comparison stage of visual perception, we further design a multivariate calibration strategy, termed Reversible Re-calibration Unit (RRU), which re-calibrates the coarse inference map by considering diverse priors.
