FishSegSSL: A Semi-Supervised Semantic Segmentation Framework for Fish-Eye Images
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The application of large field-of-view (FoV) cameras equipped with fish-eye lenses brings notable advantages to various real-world computer vision applications, including autonomous driving. While deep learning has proven successful in conventional computer vision applications using regular perspective images, its potential in fish-eye camera contexts remains largely unexplored due to limited datasets for fully supervised learning. Semi-supervised learning comes as a potential solution to manage this challenge. In this study, we explore and benchmark two popular semi-supervised methods from the perspective image domain for fish-eye image segmentation. We further introduce FishSegSSL, a novel fish-eye image segmentation framework featuring three semi-supervised components: pseudo-label filtering, dynamic confidence thresholding, and robust strong augmentation. Evaluation on the WoodScape dataset, collected from vehicle-mounted fish-eye cameras, demonstrates that our proposed method enhances the model's performance by up to 10.49% over fully supervised methods using the same amount of labeled data. Our method also improves the existing image segmentation methods by 2.34%. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work on semi-supervised semantic segmentation on fish-eye images. Additionally, we conduct a comprehensive ablation study and sensitivity analysis to showcase the efficacy of each proposed method in this research.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
