Video Object Segmentation Using Kernelized Memory Network With Multiple Kernels.

Semi-supervised video object segmentation (VOS) is to predict the segment of a target object in a video when a ground truth segmentation mask for the target is given in the first frame. Recently, space-time memory networks (STM) have received significant attention as a promising approach for semi-supervised VOS. However, an important point has been overlooked in applying STM to VOS: The solution (=STM) is non-local, but the problem (=VOS) is predominantly local.
