SegNet是由剑桥大学团队开发的一个图像分割的开源项目，该项目可以对图像中的物体所在区域进行分割，例如车、马路、行人等，并且精确到像素级别。SegNet提出了一种编码器，解码器的结构，其实有点类似于FCN，但又有所不同。他的主要流程如下：
输入一幅待分割的图像，先进入编码器，再进入解码器，最后通过一个softmax得到每个像素的分类结果，也就是语义分割的结果。在我看来，SegNet和FCN最大的不同，也就是SegNet最大的特点就是它存储了编码过程中最大池化的索引。在SegNet网络结构中，进行2×2最大池化时，会存储相应的最大池化索引（位置）。在解码器处，执行上采样和卷积时，会调用相应编码器层处的最大池化索引以进行上采样。这种方式可以一定程度上解决物体边界划分不清的问题，因为上采样的信息是直接从原始输入图像中获取的，能够更准确地反映物体的边界。而FCN在上采样过程中，并没有考虑到编码时最大池化的索引位置，如下图所示：
整个SegNet的结构如下：
可以看到，编码器和解码器都有五个?？楣钩?。
编码器1：两个卷积?？楹鸵桓鲎畲蟪鼗？椋扛鼍砘？榘淮尉砘淮闻橐换鸵淮畏窍咝员浠唬?，大小缩小一半
编码器2：两个卷积模块和一个最大池化?？椋笮∷跣∫话?br>
编码器3：三个卷积?？楹鸵桓鲎畲蟪鼗？?，大小缩小一半
编码器4：三个卷积?？楹鸵桓鲎畲蟪鼗？?，大小缩小一半
编码器5：三个卷积?？楹鸵桓鲎畲蟪鼗？?，大小缩小一半
解码器1：一个上采样模块和三个卷积?？?，大小扩大一倍（在上采样过程中，使用保存的编码器最大池化时的索引）
解码器2：一个上采样模块和三个卷积?？?，大小扩大一倍
解码器3：一个上采样?？楹腿鼍砘？?，大小扩大一倍
解码器4：一个上采样模块和两个卷积?？椋笮±┐笠槐?br>
解码器5：一个上采样?？楹土礁鼍砘？?，再拼接上一个softmax操作进行分类，大小扩大一倍，恢复成原始图像大小。
下面我们来看一下根据这个设计编写的代码：

可以看到整个数据在编码器和解码器中的数据流转过程，最终输出为分为21类的结果。实际应用中，由于从头开始训练需要花不少时间，我们可以加载VGG模型的预训练权重，因为SegNet的编码器结构和VGG基本类似，可以稍作改动把五个编码层的权重（除最大池化层）替换为VGG的预训练权重。核心代码如下：
if self.preTrained:
vgg = models.vgg16(pretrained=True)
else:
vgg = models.vgg16(pretrained=False)
self.encoder1 = nn.Sequential(vgg.features[0:3])
self.encoder2 = nn.Sequential(vgg.features[5:8])
self.encoder3 = nn.Sequential(vgg.features[10:15])
self.encoder4 = nn.Sequential(vgg.features[17:22])
self.encoder5 = nn.Sequential(vgg.features[24:29])
下面我们看看SegNet的训练结果。
在VOC2012数据集上，SegNet和FCN都训练150个epoch，SegNet的效果是不如FCN的，可能是SegNet需要更多的资源，更长的训练轮数。
可以看到，在GID遥感数据集上，SegNet的分割效果就好了不少，同样的训练轮数和FCN效果类似，并且SegNet的边缘更平滑些。
