Abstract

Currently, state-of-the-art semi-supervised learning (SSL) segmentation methods employ pseudo labels to train their models, which is an optimistic training manner that supposes the predicted pseudo labels are correct. However, their models will be optimized incorrectly when the above assumption does not hold. In this paper, we propose a Pessimistic Consistency Regularization (PCR) which considers a pessimistic case that pseudo labels are not always correct. PCR makes it possible for our model to learn the ground truth (GT) in pessimism by adaptively providing a candidate label set containing K proposals for each unlabeled pixel. Specifically, we propose a pessimistic consistency loss which trains our model to learn the possible GT from multiple candidate labels. In addition, we develop a candidate label proposal method to adaptively decide which pseudo labels are provided for each pixel. Our method is easy to implement and could be applied to existing baselines without changing their frameworks. Theoretical analysis and experiments on various benchmarks demonstrate the superiority of our approach to state-of-the-art alternatives.
