Popis: Abstract Semantic segmentation is a fundamental technology for autonomous driving. It has a high demand for inference speed and accuracy. However, a good trade‐off between accuracy and latency is yet not present in existing semantic segmentation approaches. Due to the limitation of speed, the authors cannot increase the number of network layers without limit and cannot design modules like in the networks without real‐time. It is a challenging problem how to design a model with good performance under limited resources. To alleviate these issues, in this study, the authors propose a refinement co‐supervision network (RCNet), which is real‐time on a high‐resolution image (1024×2048). The authors first construct the context refinement module, which can provide low computation cost way for obtaining the large receptive field and context information. Furthermore, a boundary co‐supervision mechanism is proposed. It strengthens the optimisation of easily neglected boundaries and small targets. Experimental results reveal that the proposed RCNet outperforms seven representative semantic segmentation methods.
