Self-Supervised Multi-Category Counting Networks for Automatic Check-Out

The practical task of Automatic Check-Out (ACO) is to accurately predict the presence and count of each product in an arbitrary product combination. Beyond the large-scale and the fine-grained nature of product categories as its main challenges, products are always continuously updated in realistic...

520 |a The practical task of Automatic Check-Out (ACO) is to accurately predict the presence and count of each product in an arbitrary product combination. Beyond the large-scale and the fine-grained nature of product categories as its main challenges, products are always continuously updated in realistic check-out scenarios, which is also required to be solved in an ACO system. Previous work in this research line almost depends on the supervisions of labor-intensive bounding boxes of products by performing a detection paradigm. While, in this paper, we propose a Self-Supervised Multi-Category Counting (S2MC2) network to leverage the point-level supervisions of products in check-out images to both lower the labeling cost and be able to return ACO predictions in a class incremental setting. Specifically, as a backbone, our S2MC2 is built upon a counting module in a class-agnostic counting fashion. Also, it consists of several crucial components including an attention module for capturing fine-grained patterns and a domain adaptation module for reducing the domain gap between single product images as training and check-out images as test. Furthermore, a self-supervised approach is utilized in S2MC2 to initialize the parameters of its backbone for better performance. By conducting comprehensive experiments on the large-scale automatic check-out dataset RPC, we demonstrate that our proposed S2MC2 achieves superior accuracy in both traditional and incremental settings of ACO tasks over the competing baselines
