VCP-DCN: Beyond Visual Concealed Property via Depth Collaborative Network for Camouflaged Object Detection

Camouflaged Object Detection (COD) aims to identify and segment camouflaged objects in complex environments, which are often concealed because their color and texture are similar to the background. Several existing COD methods introduce depth maps to boost detection performance via learning complementary RGB-D features, ignoring modality-specific characteristics of concealed objects in the depth domain. To address this issue, we propose a depth collaborative network, called VCP-DCN, to mine distinguishable multi-modality features beyond visual concealed prototype in depth domain. Specifically, VCP-DCN progressively performs multi-modality alignment, interaction, and fusion for the COD task. In the \textbf{alignment} stage, we propose a Separable Prototype Embedding (SPE) module to learn modality-consistency and modality-specific RGB/depth prototype tokens through prototype contrastive learning. Furthermore, we develop a Multi-modality Dual Attention (MDA) module to enhance the cross-modal feature representation through local response maps between modality-consistency RGB/depth prototype tokens and visual tokens on the \textbf{interaction} stage. Finally, we design a Depth Adaptive Injection (DAI) module to adaptively measure contribution of RGB/depth features with a decision-making mechanism, which calculates similarity distance between RGB/depth modality-specific prototype tokens and modality-consistency ones on the \textbf{fusion} stage. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our VCP-DCN on three authoritative datasets.

Pro2SAM: Mask Prompt to SAM with Grid Points for Weakly Supervised Object Localization

Weakly Supervised Object Localization (WSOL), which aims to localize objects by only using image-level labels, has attracted much attention because of its low annotation cost in real applications. Current studies focus on the Class Activation Map (CAM) of CNN and the self-attention map of transformer to identify the region of objects. However, both CAM and self-attention maps can not learn pixel-level fine-grained information on the foreground objects, which hinders the further advance of WSOL. To address this problem, we initiatively leverage the capability of zero-shot generalization and fine-grained segmentation in Segment Anything Model (SAM) to boost the activation of integral object regions. Further, to alleviate the semantic ambiguity issue accrued in single point prompt-based SAM, we propose an innovative mask prompt to SAM (Pro2SAM) network with grid points for WSOL task. First, we devise a Global Token Transformer (GTFormer) to generate a coarse-grained foreground map as a flexible mask prompt, where the GTFormer jointly embeds patch tokens and novel global tokens to learn foreground semantics. Secondly, we deliver grid points as dense prompts into SAM to maximize the probability of foreground mask, which avoids the lack of objects caused by a single point/box prompt. Finally, we propose a pixel-level similarity metric to come true the mask matching from mask prompt to SAM, where the mask with the highest score is viewed as the final localization map. Experiments show that the proposed Pro2SAM achieves state-of-the-art performance on both CUB-200-2011 and ILSVRC, with 84.03\% and 66.85\% Top-1 Loc, respectively.

Lightweight RGB-D Salient Object Detection from a Speed-Accuracy Tradeoff Perspective

Current RGB-D methods usually leverage large-scale backbones to improve accuracy but sacrifice efficiency. Meanwhile, several existing lightweight methods are difficult to achieve high-precision performance. To balance the efficiency and performance, we propose a Speed-Accuracy Tradeoff Network (SATNet) for Lightweight RGB-D SOD from three fundamental perspectives: depth quality, modality fusion, and feature representation. Concerning depth quality, we introduce the Depth Anything Model to generate high-quality depth maps,which effectively alleviates the multi-modal gaps in the current datasets. For modality fusion, we propose a Decoupled Attention Module (DAM) to explore the consistency within and between modalities. Here, the multi-modal features are decoupled into dual-view feature vectors to project discriminable information of feature maps. For feature representation, we develop a Dual Information Representation Module (DIRM) with a bi-directional inverted framework to enlarge the limited feature space generated by the lightweight backbones. DIRM models texture features and saliency features to enrich feature space, and employ two-way prediction heads to optimal its parameters through a bi-directional backpropagation. Finally, we design a Dual Feature Aggregation Module (DFAM) in the decoder to aggregate texture and saliency features. Extensive experiments on five public RGB-D SOD datasets indicate that the proposed SATNet excels state-of-the-art (SOTA) CNN-based heavyweight models and achieves a lightweight framework with 5.2 M parameters and 415 FPS.
