Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for instance segmentation. In one aspect, a system generates: (i) data identifying one or more regions of the image, wherein an object is depicted in each region, (ii) for each region, a predicted type of object that is depicted in the region, and (iii) feature channels comprising a plurality of semantic channels and one or more direction channels. The system generates a region descriptor for each of the one or more regions, and provides the region descriptor for each of the one or more regions to a segmentation neural network that processes a region descriptor for a region to generate a predicted segmentation of the predicted type of object depicted in the region.
