Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| add inter-scene instance discrimination loss (ablation) | CondInst R50 · COCO val2017 | mask AP: 35.5 -> 37.6 | Helped |
| add transformation equivariance loss (ablation) | CondInst R50 · COCO val2017 | mask AP: 35.5 -> 36.5 | Helped |
| combine both losses (ablation) | CondInst R50 · COCO val2017 | mask AP: 37.6 -> 38.1 | Helped |
| use focal loss instead of l1/l2/cross-entropy for inter-scene loss (ablation) | inter-scene loss · COCO val2017 | mask AP: 36.0 (l1) / 37.3 (CE) -> 37.6 | Helped |
| add external memory (100k pixels) vs mini-batch only (ablation) | inter-scene loss · COCO val2017 | mask AP: 36.9 -> 37.6 | Helped |
| instance-balanced sparse sampling instead of dense sampling (ablation) | inter-scene loss · COCO val2017 | mask AP: 37.1 -> 37.6 | Helped |
| equivariance on query-instance relation rather than feature only (ablation) | equivariance loss · COCO val2017 | mask AP: 36.3 -> 36.5 | Helped |
| loss coefficient 3 instead of 1 (ablation) | loss balance · COCO val2017 | mask AP: 37.0 -> 37.6 | Helped |
| add the training framework to four query-based segmenters across backbones | CondInst, SOLOv2, SOTR, Mask2Former · COCO test-dev | mask AP: +1.6 to +3.2 AP | Helped |
| add framework to SOLOv2 | SOLOv2 R50 · LVISv1 val | mask AP: 21.4 -> 24.1 | Helped |
| add framework to Mask2Former | Mask2Former Swin-B · COCO Panoptic val | PQ: 56.1 -> 57.3 | Helped |
| training cost of adding framework | CondInst R50 · COCO val2017 | hours/epoch: 1.51 -> 1.59 | Hurt |
