Enhancing Salient Object Detection in RGB-D Videos via Tri-modal Complementary Fusion
摘要
Video salient object detection (VSOD) is crucial in computer vision, aiming to identify and segment the most salient objects in videos. Most existing methods rely solely on bimodal (RGB, optical flow) or tri-modal (RGB, optical flow, depth) information for salient object detection. Due to limited modal dimensions or insufficient exploitation of intermodal complementarity, they struggle to capture complete object features in complex scenes, resulting in constrained detection performance. This paper introduces a Tri-modal Complementary Fusion Network (TCFNet) for SOD in RGB-D videos, leveraging RGB, optical flow, and depth information. TCFNet comprises an attention-enhanced tri-modal feature interaction fusion module (ATFM) and a gate-enhanced feedback module (GFM). ATFM enhances feature interaction and fusion across modalities, while GFM aggregates and refines multi-level features. Experimental results on five authoritative datasets demonstrate TCFNet’s superior performance, significantly outperforming 18 existing VSOD methods, with a 5.1% gain in the
