A Novel Divide and Conquer Solution for Long-term Video Salient Object Detection

Recently,a new research trend in our video salient object detection(VSOD)research community has focused on enhancing the detection results via model self-fine-tuning using sparsely mined high-quality keyframes from the given sequence.Although such a learning scheme is generally effective,it has a critical limitation,i.e.,the model learned on sparse frames only possesses weak generaliza-tion ability.This situation could become worse on"long"videos since they tend to have intensive scene variations.Moreover,in such videos,the keyframe information from a longer time span is less relevant to the previous,which could also cause learning conflict and de-teriorate the model performance.Thus,the learning scheme is usually incapable of handling complex pattern modeling.To solve this problem,we propose a divide-and-conquer framework,which can convert a complex problem domain into multiple simple ones.First,we devise a novel background consistency analysis(BCA)which effectively divides the mined frames into disjoint groups.Then for each group,we assign an individual deep model on it to capture its key attribute during the fine-tuning phase.During the testing phase,we design a model-matching strategy,which could dynamically select the best-matched model from those fine-tuned ones to handle the giv-en testing frame.Comprehensive experiments show that our method can adapt severe background appearance variation coupling with object movement and obtain robust saliency detection compared with the previous scheme and the state-of-the-art methods.
