Fast Portrait Segmentation with Highly Light-weight Network

19 Oct 2019  ·  Yuezun Li, Ao Luo, Siwei Lyu ·

In this paper, we describe a fast and light-weight portrait segmentation method based on a new highly light-weight backbone (HLB) architecture. The core element of HLB is a bottleneck-based factorized block (BFB) that has much fewer parameters than existing alternatives while keeping good learning capacity. Consequently, the HLB-based portrait segmentation method can run faster than the existing methods yet retaining the competitive accuracy performance with state-of-the-arts. Experiments conducted on two benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our method.
