Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for semantic segmentation of an image, capable of solving the problem in the related art associated with low speed and inefficiency in semantic segmentation of images. The method includes: receiving the image; performing semantic segmentation on the image to obtain an initial semantic segmentation result; and inputting image information containing the initial semantic segmentation result to a pre-trained convolutional neural network for semantic segmentation post-processing, so as to obtain a final semantic segmentation result. With the solutions of the present disclosure, the initial semantic segmentation result can be post-processed using the convolutional neural network, such that the speed and efficiency of the semantic segmentation of the image can be improved.
