Abstract
A system and method for instance segmentation of densely packed objects is disclosed. The method includes receiving an input image, enhancing the input image to generate an enhanced input image, inputting the enhanced input image to a trained mask R-CNN model to generate a first segmentation map, iteratively predicting one or more missing instances of densely packed objects from the input image based on comparison of a contour map generated for the input image with a contour map generated for the first segmentation map, comparing an area of the one or more missing instances with a predefined threshold value, applying the trained masked R-CNN model on each of the one or more missing instances to generate a second segmentation map, and obtaining a refined segmentation map based on the first segmentation map and the second segmentation map.
