Abstract

An instance segmentation method includes: performing feature extraction on an image via a neural network to output features at at least two different hierarchies; extracting region features corresponding to at least one instance candidate region in the image from the features at the at least two different hierarchies, and fusing region features corresponding to a same instance candidate region, to obtain a first fusion feature of each instance candidate region; and performing instance segmentation based on each first fusion feature, to obtain at least one of an instance segmentation result of the corresponding instance candidate region or an instance segmentation result of the image.
