In the mask R-CNN architecture, the uniformly shaped feature maps output by the region of interest (RoI) alignment layer are utilized for multiple parallel tasks. While they continue to predict the class and bounding box for each region of interest, they are simultaneously passed into an additional fully convolutional network. This fully convolutional network leverages the preserved spatial details to predict the exact pixel-level position of the object.

Mask R-CNN Pixel-Level Prediction

The region of interest (RoI) alignment layer is a specialized component in the mask R-CNN model that replaces the traditional region of interest pooling layer. It uses bilinear interpolation to meticulously preserve spatial information on the feature maps, preventing the loss of resolution. This exact spatial mapping outputs feature maps of a uniform shape for all regions of interest, making it highly suitable for detailed pixel-level prediction.

The mask R-CNN is an extension of the faster R-CNN object detection architecture. It is designed to effectively leverage detailed pixel-level labels in a training dataset to further improve object detection accuracy. By modifying the base architecture, mask R-CNN is capable of predicting both traditional bounding boxes and the precise pixel-level positions of objects.
