Convolutional Networks Can Learn to Generate Affinity Graphs for Image Segmentation

Many image segmentation algorithms first generate an affinity graph and then partition it. We present a machine learning approach to computing an affinity graph using a convolutional network (CN) trained using ground truth provided by human experts. The CN affinity graph can be paired with any stand...
