Query: BoundarySqueeze: Image Segmentation as Boundary Squeezing   This paper proposes a novel method for high-quality image segmentation of
both objects and scenes. Inspired by the dilation and erosion operations in
morphological image processing techniques, the pixel-level image segmentation
problems are treated as squeezing object boundaries. From this perspective, a
novel and efficient \textbf{Boundary Squeeze} module is proposed. This module
is used to squeeze the object boundary from both inner and outer directions,
which contributes to precise mask representation. A bi-directionally flow-based
warping process is proposed to generate such squeezed feature representation,
and two specific loss signals are designed to supervise the squeezing process.
The Boundary Squeeze module can be easily applied to both instance and semantic
segmentation tasks as a plug-and-play module by building on top of some
existing methods. Moreover, the proposed module is light-weighted, and thus has
potential for practical usage. Experiment results show that our simple yet
effective design can produce high-quality results on several different
datasets. Besides, several other metrics on the boundary are used to prove the
effectiveness of our method over previous work. Our approach yields significant
improvement on challenging COCO and Cityscapes datasets for both instance and
semantic segmentation, and outperforms previous state-of-the-art PointRend in
both accuracy and speed under the same setting. Codes and models will be
published at \url{https://github.com/lxtGH/BSSeg}.
