Abstract

Provided are: an amodal segmentation unit that generates a set of first amodal masks indicating a probability that a particular pixel belongs to a relevant object for each of objects, with respect to an input image in which a plurality of the objects partially overlap; an overlap segmentation unit that generates an overlap mask corresponding only to an overlap region where the plurality of objects overlap in the input image based on an aggregate mask obtained by combining the set of first amodal masks generated for each of the objects and a feature map generated based on the input image; and an amodal mask correction unit that generates and outputs a second amodal mask, which includes an annotation label indicating a category of each of the objects corresponding to a relevant pixel, for each of pixels in the input image using the overlap mask and the aggregate mask.
