MatchED: Crisp Edge Detection Using End-to-End, Matching-based Supervision
- 基于空间距离与置信度进行预测与真实边缘的一一匹配
- 使边缘清晰度指标(AC)提升2至4倍,性能超越传统后处理
- 轻量设计仅增加约21K参数,兼容任意现有模型
生成清晰(单像素宽)的边缘图仍是边缘检测中的基础难题,影响传统与学习方法。现有方法普遍依赖非可微的后处理算法(如NMS和骨架细化),阻碍端到端优化。本文提出 extit{MatchED},一种仅增加约21K参数、即插即用的匹配监督模块,可嵌入任意边缘检测模型中实现端到端学习清晰边缘。训练时,该模块根据空间距离与置信度对预测与真实边缘进行一对一匹配,确保训练与测试流程一致。在四个主流数据集上的实验表明,引入 extit{MatchED}显著提升现有模型性能。尤其在强调清晰度的评估(CEval)下,其在ODS上提升达20–35\%,并达到或超过标准后处理的最优表现,首次实现无需后处理的先进效果。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Generating crisp, i.e., one-pixel-wide, edge maps remains one of the fundamental challenges in edge detection, affecting both traditional and learning-based methods. To obtain crisp edges, most existing approaches rely on two hand-crafted post-processing algorithms, Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS) and skeleton-based thinning, which are non-differentiable and hinder end-to-end optimization. Moreover, all existing crisp edge detection methods still depend on such post-processing to achieve satisfactory results. To address this limitation, we propose \MethodLPP, a lightweight, only $\sim$21K additional parameters, and plug-and-play matching-based supervision module that can be appended to any edge detection model for joint end-to-end learning of crisp edges. At each training iteration, \MethodLPP performs one-to-one matching between predicted and ground-truth edges based on spatial distance and confidence, ensuring consistency between training and testing protocols. Extensive experiments on four popular datasets demonstrate that integrating \MethodLPP substantially improves the performance of existing edge detection models. In particular, \MethodLPP increases the Average Crispness (AC) metric by up to 2--4$\times$ compared to baseline models. Under the crispness-emphasized evaluation (CEval), \MethodLPP further boosts baseline performance by up to 20--35\% in ODS and achieves similar gains in OIS and AP, achieving SOTA performance that matches or surpasses standard post-processing for the first time.
