Hands-On Image Processing and Computer Vision with Python - Second Edition
By :
In this chapter, we established a strong foundation in image segmentation, progressing from classical concepts to modern deep learning and transformer-based methods. We explored the fundamental formulations of semantic, instance, and panoptic segmentation, and examined how architectures such as CNNs and transformers (e.g., DPT, SegFormer, DETR, Mask2Former) model spatial context, global dependencies, and object-level reasoning. Through both theoretical insights and practical implementations, the reader has gained a clear understanding of how segmentation models evolve from pixel-level classification to unified, query-based frameworks. This foundation prepares us to move toward more advanced paradigms in the next part, where segmentation becomes increasingly interactive, multimodal, and application driven.
In Chapter 11, More Deep Learning Methods for Image Segmentation, we will explore promptable foundation models, vision–language and text-guided segmentation, monocular...
