Unsupervised semantic segmentation aims to discover and localize semantically meaningful categories within image corpora without any form of annotation.

… algorithms must produce features for every pixel that are both semantically meaningful and compact enough to form distinct clusters.

… show that current unsupervised feature learning frameworks already generate dense features whose correlations are semantically consistent.

… motivates … design STEGO (Self-supervised Transformer with Energy-based Graph Optimization) … that distills unsupervised features into high-quality discrete semantic labels.

… STEGO … encourages features to form compact clusters while preserving their relationships across the corpora.

STEGO … significant improvement over the prior state of the art, on … CocoStuff (+14 mIoU) and Cityscapes (+9 mIoU) semantic segmentation challenges.
