    Abstract: An inpainting method includes obtaining an image including an object having a delicate shape and identifying a target region within the image, where the target region is adjacent to the object. The method also includes using a first mask to separate the image into a number of semantic categories and aggregating neighboring contexts for the target region based on the semantic categories. The method further includes restoring, based on the aggregated contexts, textures in the target region without affecting the delicate shape of the object. In addition, the method includes displaying a refined image including the restored textures in the target region and the object.

    Abstract: A method includes training, using at least one processor, a specialized teacher model to perform visual object instance segmentation in order to segment and classify objects in first training images. The first training images contain foreground objects without backgrounds. The method also includes training, using the at least one processor, a student model to perform visual object instance segmentation in order to segment and classify objects in second training images. The second training images contain the foreground objects and the backgrounds. Training the student model includes using selected outputs of the specialized teacher model. The method further includes deploying the trained student model to perform visual object instance segmentation in an external device.
