Abstract

This paper introduces Click’n’Cut, a novel web tool for in- teractive object segmentation addressed to crowdsourcing tasks. Click’n’Cut combines bounding boxes and clicks gen- erated by workers to obtain accurate object segmentations. These segmentations are created by combining precomputed object candidates in a light computational fashion that al- lows an immediate response from the interface. Click’n’Cut has been tested with a crowdsourcing campaign to anno- tate a subset of the Berkeley Segmentation Dataset (BSDS). Results show competitive results with state of the art, es- pecially in time to converge to a high quality segmentation. The data collection campaign included golden standard tests to detect cheaters.
