Open-World Semantic Segmentation with Sensitivity Modeling
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.08308v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern vision systems must operate in "open-world" settings, where models must recognize known categories and detect unseen or anomalous content. Conventional semantic segmentation models operate under a "closed-world" assumption, often producing overconfident misclassifications on novel content. We address open-world semantic segmentation, the joint task of segmenting known classes while detecting and grouping novel or anomalous content without additional supervision, by extending a dual-decoder baseline with a third, complementary decoder wit
