Semi-supervised Salient Object Detection with Effective Confidence Estimation
The success of existing salient object detection models relies on a large pixel-wise labeled training dataset, which is time-consuming and expensive to obtain. We study semi-supervised salient object detection, with access to a small number of labeled samples and a large number of unlabeled samples. Specifically, we present a pseudo label based learn-ing framework with a Conditional Energy-based Model. We model the stochastic nature of human saliency labels using the stochastic latent variable of the Conditional Energy-based Model. It further enables generation of a high-quality pixel-wise uncertainty map, highlighting the reliability of corresponding pseudo label generated for the unlabeled sample. This minimises the contribution of low-certainty pseudo labels in optimising the model, preventing the error propagation. Experimental results show that the proposed strategy can effectively explore the contribution of unlabeled data. With only 1/16 labeled samples, our model achieves competitive performance compared with state-of-the-art fully-supervised models.
