The invention relates to a semantic segmentation method and
system based on edge dense reconstruction for streetscape understanding, and the method comprises the steps: carrying out the preprocessingof an input image of a
training set, enabling the image to be standardized, and obtaining preprocessed images with the same size; extracting general features by using a convolutional network, then obtaining three-level context space
pyramid fusion features, and extracting coding features by using the two parts of
cascade connection as a coding network; acquiring semi-input size encoding features by using the encoding features, acquiring edge features based on a convolutional network, and reconstructing
image resolution by taking a dense network fused with the edge features as a decoding network in combination with the semi-input size encoding features, and acquiring decoding features; calculating semantic segmentation loss and auxiliary supervision edge loss, and training the deep neural network by taking minimization of weighted sum loss of the semantic segmentation loss and the auxiliary supervision edge loss as a target; and performing semantic segmentation on the to-be-segmented image by using the deep neural
network model, and outputting a segmentation result. The method and the
system are beneficial to improving the accuracy and robustness of image semantic segmentation.
