Recently, there has been a panoptic segmentation task combining semantic and instance segmentation, in which the goal is to classify each pixel with the corresponding instance ID. In this work, we propose a solution to tackle the panoptic segmentation task. The overall structure combines the bottom-up method and the top-down method. Therefore, not only can there be better performance, but also the execution speed can be maintained. The network mainly pays attention to the quality of the mask. In the previous work, we can see that the uneven contour of the object is more likely to appear, resulting in low-quality prediction. Accordingly, we propose enhancement features and corresponding loss functions for the silhouette of objects and backgrounds to improve the mask. Meanwhile, we use the new proposed confidence score to solve the occlusion problem and make the network tend to use higher quality masks as prediction results. To verify our research, we used the COCO dataset and CityScapes dataset to do experiments and obtained competitive results with fast inference time.
