Underwater Imaging Instance Segmentation Detection Transformer

Open paper AskPDF arXiv

Underwater instance segmentation integrates pixel-level mask prediction and instance-level discrimination for marine resource exploration, ecological monitoring, and underwater robotic perception. Recent prompt-based and auxiliary-modality methods improve mask quality, but their reliance on large foundation models, prompt generation, or extra modality estimation complicates efficient deployment. This work introduces Lightweight Underwater Salient Instance Segmentation Detection Transformer (LUSIS-DETR), a compact detection-transformer framework built around the Aqua Boundary-Saliency Attention Module (AquaBSAM). AquaBSAM embeds underwater boundary, contrast, attenuation, chroma, dark-channel, and center-prior cues into DINOv2-initialized multi-scale features through bounded residual modulation, while auxiliary mask supervision and small-object copy-paste are training-only. Extensive evaluation on four recent underwater instance segmentation datasets, UIIS, UIIS10K, USIS10K, and USIS16K, shows competitively leading performance against previous state-of-the-art works across category-aware and salient-instance protocols. TensorRT half-precision (FP16) benchmarking on an NVIDIA T4 graphics processing unit (GPU) achieves 4.31-6.34 milliseconds (ms) latency, supporting real-time inference under an accessible reproduction setting.
