GMNet: Graded-Feature Multilabel-Learning Network for RGB-Thermal Urban Scene Semantic Segmentation
Summary
This study introduces a new graded-feature multilabel-learning network for urban scene semantic segmentation using RGB and thermal data. The novel approach enhances accuracy by effectively fusing cross-modal information.
Area of Science:
- Computer Vision
- Machine Learning
Background:
- Semantic segmentation is crucial for autonomous systems.
- Integrating RGB and thermal data for urban scenes presents fusion challenges.
Purpose of the Study:
