Abstract: Aim at the shortage of a large amount of redundancy and overlaps of conventional semantic segmentation algorithm, these shortages caused the image segmentation results getting lower accuracy and robust. A new algorithm of multi-objects image segmentation based on faster region proposal networks was proposed. A selective search algorithm was used to get the initial proposal boxes; a faster region proposal network was used to get initial image segmentation boxes. In order to validate our proposed algorithm, the VGG16 models that pre-trained on ImageNet was used on this problem. By using COCO dataset and Cityscapes dataset, the model was well fine-tuned. The test dataset was used for testing semantic segmentation and image segmentation. Compared with YOLO algorithm, the experimental results showed that our proposed algorithm increased mAP of 2.16% and 1.55%. The initial image segmentation boxes by faster region proposal networks were best fitted by GrabCut, multi-objects segmentation results were more accurate and robust. Our proposed algorithm got higher accuracy by sacrifice little time consumption, which got more application scenes in multi-object patterns recognition.

Key words: GrabCut algorithm, faster region proposal network(Faster RPN), selective search algorithm, muti-objects segmentation, image segmentation
