Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Replace heuristic top-similarity selection with learnable matching that fuses proposals (ablation) | MM-Former · Pascal-5^i and COCO-20^i, 1-shot | mean IoU: 42.1 -> 56.4; 22.4 -> 37.9 | Helped |
| Add Self-Alignment to heuristic matching (ablation) | MM-Former · Pascal-5^i and COCO-20^i, 1-shot | mean IoU: 42.1 -> 46.4; 22.4 -> 23.6 | Helped |
| Use non-parametric rather than learned Cross-Alignment (ablation) | MM-Former · Pascal-5^i and COCO-20^i, 1-shot | mean IoU: 56.1 -> 38.0; 35.3 -> 16.7 | Hurt |
| Add learned Cross-Alignment (ablation) | MM-Former · Pascal-5^i and COCO-20^i, 1-shot | mean IoU: 42.1 -> 56.1; 22.4 -> 35.3 | Helped |
| Add cross-alignment supervision L_co (ablation) | MM-Former · Pascal-5^i and COCO-20^i, 1-shot | mean IoU: 62.1 -> 63.3; 43.2 -> 44.2 | Helped |
| Use features after MSDeformAttn instead of backbone features for matching (ablation) | MM-Former · Pascal-5^i and COCO-20^i, 1-shot | mean IoU: 63.3 -> 60.5; 44.2 -> 42.8 | Hurt |
| Train POS and MM end-to-end rather than in two stages (ablation) | MM-Former · Pascal-5^i and COCO-20^i, 1-shot | mean IoU: 63.3 -> 60.6; 44.2 -> 40.3 | Hurt |
| Remove the mask classifier from POS (ablation) | MM-Former POS · Pascal-5^i and COCO-20^i, POS oracle | mean IoU: 78.9 -> 82.5; 68.4 -> 68.9 | Helped |
| Increase mask proposals from 10 to 50 (ablation) | MM-Former POS · Pascal-5^i, 1-shot | Final mean IoU: 57.9 -> 61.0 | Helped |
| Increase mask proposals from 50 to 100 (ablation) | MM-Former POS · Pascal-5^i, 1-shot | Final mean IoU: 61.0 -> 63.3 | Helped |
| Train on more images from only the 15 Pascal training classes (COCO-15) (ablation) | MM-Former · Pascal-5^i transfer, 1-shot and 5-shot | mIoU: 63.3 -> 60.7; 64.9 -> 64.8 | Hurt |
| Train on more categories using a similarly sized sample (COCO-75-sub) (ablation) | MM-Former · Pascal-5^i transfer, 1-shot and 5-shot | mIoU: 63.3 -> 66.8; 64.9 -> 68.9 | Helped |
