Deep Dual Pyramid Network for Barcode Segmentation using Barcode-30k Database
Digital signs(such as barcode or QR code) are widely used in our daily life, and for many applications, we need to localize them on images. However, difficult cases such as targets with small scales, half-occlusion, shape deformation and large illumination changes cause challenges for conventional methods. In this paper, we address this problem by producing a large-scale dataset and adopting a deep learning based semantic segmentation approach. Specifically, a synthesizing method was proposed to generate well-annotated images containing barcode and QR code labels, which contributes to largely decrease the annotation time. Through the synthesis strategy, we introduce a dataset that contains 30000 images with Barcode and QR code - Barcode-30k. Moreover, we further propose a dual pyramid structure based segmentation network - BarcodeNet, which is mainly formed with two novel modules, Prior Pyramid Pooling Module(P3M) and Pyramid Refine Module(PRM). We validate the effectiveness of BarcodeNet on the proposed synthetic dataset, and it yields the result of mIoU accuracy 95.36\% on validation set. Additional segmentation results of real images have shown that accurate segmentation performance is achieved.
