Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to artificial intelligence technology, and in particular to a robust multimodal image segmentation method and system based on instance-aware query. Background Art

[0002] Multimodal image segmentation technology has broad application prospects in medical diagnosis, autonomous driving, intelligent monitoring and other fields, and its research is of great significance. This technology can combine image and text description information to achieve accurate positioning and segmentation of target objects, providing key support for downstream tasks. Especially in medical image analysis, accurate organ segmentation can assist doctors in disease diagnosis; in autonomous driving scenarios, accurate segmentation combining sensor data and scene description can improve driving safety; in the field of industrial quality inspection, defect segmentation based on text description can improve detection efficiency and accuracy. Therefore, studying robust multimodal image segmentation methods based on instance-aware queries is of great significance to promoting the implementation of artificial intelligence technology in practical applications.

[0003] Current multimodal image segmentation technology mainly adopts a feature encoding-feature decoding architecture, extracting image features through a convolutional neural network, using a natural language processing model to process text descriptions, and then fusing and decoding the features of the two modalities. Some methods use attention mechanisms to enhance the interaction between modalities, such as the Transformer structure or cross-modal attention modules. Other researchers have proposed using contrastive learning to improve the representation of features, or using a multi-task learning framework to improve the generalization performance of the model. However, these methods often focus on feature extraction and fusion, ignoring the causal relationship modeling between features. At the same time, most existing methods use a single loss function for optimization, and lack an evaluation mechanism for the reliability of segmentation results.

[0004] However, there are still some key problems that need to be solved in the existing technology: first, the traditional feature encoding-feature decoding architecture is difficult to handle the significant difference in the distribution of image and text features, especially when dealing with abstract concepts and complex semantic descriptions, the alignment accuracy of cross-modal features is insufficient; second, the existing multimodal feature interaction structure has a strong data bias, often assuming that the target described in the text must exist in the image, and only considering a single target instance, which limits the scope of application of the algorithm in practical scenarios; third, the traditional method lacks uncertainty modeling of the segmentation results, cannot provide reliable confidence estimates, and is prone to wrong predictions when facing ambiguous or difficult samples; fourth, the existing feature fusion method fails to make full use of multi-scale information, and its performance is not stable enough when dealing with targets of different scales; finally, the lack of an effective causal reasoning mechanism makes it difficult for the model to understand and utilize the deep semantic associations between modalities, resulting in insufficient robustness in complex scenarios. These technical problems seriously restrict the promotion and use of multimodal image segmentation technology in practical applications. Summary of the invention

[0030] This embodiment realizes the construction of high-quality training data through multi-stage data preprocessing and enhancement strategies. Specifically, firstly, by standardizing the original image and semantically parsing the text, a standardized data foundation is established, which not only unifies the data format but also retains the essential characteristics of the data; secondly, by constructing an image-text causal graph, the intrinsic connection between cross-modal data is captured, providing important prior information for subsequent feature extraction; thirdly, through adaptive data enhancement strategies, especially for the processing of complex samples, the generalization ability of the model is improved; by introducing technologies such as elastic deformation and local noise addition, the enhanced data is closer to the distribution of real scenes. This embodiment not only improves the quality of training data, but also expands the diversity of training samples through data enhancement. The training data processed in this way can improve the segmentation accuracy of the model in complex scenes by 18%, and the generalization ability of unseen scenes is improved by 25%.

[0031] According to one aspect of the present application, step S11 is further:

[0130] In one embodiment of the present application, a robust multimodal image segmentation method based on instance-aware query includes: first, collecting data sample pairs of text description image targets, including data of text description of a single target and description of multiple targets, annotating the image, and obtaining a segmentation map label. Replace the text description of the single target data to make it target-free data in which the target described does not exist in the image, and shuffle the order of the three data into a training set and a validation set. Secondly, a multimodal image segmentation model is constructed based on a feature encoding-query decoding-query matching architecture. Among them, for the feature encoding part, the encoder is constructed using the visual and language benchmark models respectively, and the feature information of each modality is extracted respectively; for the query decoding part, the query vector is initialized according to the Gaussian distribution, and the instance-aware feature clustering module is constructed based on the cross-attention module, and the query vector is used to calculate the attention with the text feature and the image feature respectively, so as to obtain the instance-aware query and the multimodal feature. Afterwards, based on the Transformer structure, the instance-aware query is used as the index, and the multimodal feature is used as the key and value to obtain the instance-aware query feature guided by the multimodal feature, and the instance-level multimodal feature association is established. For the query matching part, the confidence prediction head and the segmentation map prediction head are constructed respectively to obtain the segmentation prediction results of the query quantity and the corresponding confidence prediction results. Finally, the training set data is used for model training, and on the validation set, the confidence threshold is set to filter the segmentation result predictions and verify the model performance. Specifically:

[0131] Step 1: Collect multimodal image-text sample data pairs in different scenarios, and divide the data into single-target data and multi-target data according to the collected text descriptions. Single-target data means that the text description corresponds to one instance target in the image, and multi-target data means that the text description corresponds to multiple instance targets in the image.

[0132] Step 2: Preprocess the multimodal data. First, annotate the single-target and multi-target data to obtain the corresponding manually annotated segmentation label map, where the segmentation labels of the multi-target data are differentiated by instance, that is, each target instance corresponds to a segmentation label. Secondly, for the single-target data, manually modify the text description to ensure that the modified text description refers to a different target than the original description, and this target does not exist in the corresponding image, so as to obtain zero target data. After preprocessing, randomly shuffle the order of the combination of the three multimodal data and divide it into a training set Dt and a validation set De in a ratio of 5:1.

[0133] Step 3: Build a model based on the feature encoding-query decoding-query matching architecture. First, build the feature encoding module. This module consists of an image hierarchical encoding backbone and a text encoding backbone. The image hierarchical encoding backbone uses a hierarchical benchmark model such as Swin-Transformer, and the text encoding backbone uses a text benchmark model such as BERT. Given the multimodal image-text data pairs processed in step 2, the image modality data is obtained through the image hierarchical encoding backbone to obtain image features V1, V2, V3, V4 that are sampled at 1 / 4, 1 / 8, 1 / 16, and 1 / 32 of the original image resolution, and the text modality data is obtained through the text encoding backbone to obtain the sentence-level feature L g With word-level feature L l .

[0134] Step 4: Build an instance-aware feature clustering module based on the spanning attention mechanism. First, build a basic spanning attention module, which takes the feature matrix represented by the index and value as input. After the two are linearly mapped through the fully connected layer, the index and the value are matrix-multiplied. The result is activated by softmax to obtain the index's attention for each value, and then matrix-multiplied with the value to obtain the result and the original value of the index. The result is then sent to the multi-layer perceptron with residual connection as a fusion feature to obtain the final spanning fusion feature. Afterwards, for the image features V1, V2, V3, and V4 obtained in step 3, they are used as indexes and word-level features L as values, respectively. l After passing through the cross-attention module, the corresponding multimodal features M1, M2, M3, M4 are obtained. Then, N query vectors O are initialized based on Gaussian distribution. N , where N is the upper limit of the prediction instance target that the model can give, O NThe query features are fused with the multimodal features through the softmax activation and matrix dot multiplication with their own features, so that each query focuses on the multimodal features corresponding to different image instance regions. After that, each query vector is combined with the sentence-level feature L g Add together to get the instance-aware query Q N .

[0135] Step 5: Build a query decoding structure based on the instance-aware feature clustering module in step 4. After the image features and text features obtained in step 3 are sent to the instance-aware feature clustering module, the multimodal features M1, M2, M3, and M4 are concatenated in series to obtain sequentially arranged features. The features are sent to a three-layer series Transformer encoder structure to extract the multimodal feature self-correlation and obtain a multi-scale spliced ​​multimodal feature M. m Afterwards, the instance-aware query Q N As an index, multi-scale concatenated multi-modal features M m As keys and values, they are fed into a three-layer cascaded Transformer decoder structure to establish an association between each query and multimodal features and output them. m , according to the resolution of the original multimodal feature, it is re-split into multimodal features M of corresponding scales m1 , M m2 , M m3 , M m4 .

[0136] Step 6: Build a query matching structure, which consists of a confidence prediction head and a segmentation map prediction head. The confidence prediction head is based on the instance-aware query Q output in step 5. N Through a fully connected layer, linear mapping is performed and the result is limited to between 0 and 1 using the sigmoid activation function to obtain the confidence prediction corresponding to N queries. The segmentation map prediction head is used for the multimodal feature M obtained by splitting in step 5. m1 , M m2 , M m3 , M m4 , according to the resolution from low to high, each is upsampled by a 1×1 convolution layer and then doubled, and finally the modal feature M is obtained. m1 Multimodal fusion scale features of the same resolution. Then, for instance-aware query Q N The fully connected layer is also used for mapping, and the mapping results are split and used as the weights of the convolution kernel. Convolution operations are performed on the multimodal fusion scale features, and finally the segmentation map prediction results corresponding to N queries are obtained.

[0137] Step 7: For the built model, use the training set Dt organized in step 2 for training, calculate the intersection-and-union ratio between each query segmentation map prediction and each instance-level segmentation map label of the training sample, match each instance with the query with the highest intersection-and-union ratio, and obtain the instance-query pair. For each matched query segmentation map, calculate the corresponding BCE loss and Dice loss, and for the confidence prediction result, calculate its BCE loss with the target value 1. Add the three losses obtained, back-propagate, and optimize the overall model weight.

[0138] Step 8: For the model trained in step 7, use the validation set De obtained in step 2 to verify the model performance. First, set a confidence threshold, such as 0.5, for the confidence prediction results of N queries, and select queries that exceed the threshold as valid queries. Then, select the segmentation map prediction corresponding to the valid query as the model prediction result, and use the validation set segmentation map label to verify the model performance.

[0139] This embodiment proposes a feature encoding-query decoding-query matching architecture based on instance-aware query, aiming to achieve robust multimodal image segmentation that is more suitable for practical application scenarios. Make full use of the query as an intermediate process, establish the association between multimodal features and queries instead of directly establishing the association between image and text, alleviate the difference distribution problem caused by the large difference between different modalities, and better establish the feature association between image and text. In addition, by using the instance-aware feature clustering module in the query decoding structure, it forces each query to focus on different instance-level multimodal feature areas by crossing attention and softmax activation, adapting to multimodal image segmentation in various occasions (zero target, single target, multi-target instance), and facing complex image and text scenes. More robust results can be given. In addition, the query matching part predicts the segmentation map and confidence of each query for its focus area based on the instance-aware query, and can provide additional confidence information and the segmentation prediction results of the upper limit of the number of queries, so that the prediction process of the entire framework has higher scalability and greater flexibility. This embodiment effectively solves the technical problems of multimodal image segmentation, and can play an important role in applications requiring image and text matching segmentation and other similar tasks, and provide more accurate and reliable basis for decision-making in related fields.
