The convolutional neural network has become a staple for any recognition task, but a new type of ConvNet which is Fully convolutional in architecture has yielded more fine features and proponents. We propose a neural net where we take VGG19 [20], a well-known classification CNN, make it fully convolutional for extracting deeper features and lastly use skip-architectures[15] for getting finer output. This yields better result than the pre-existing FCN segmentation architecture [15, 25, 6]. Training was done on augmented VOC12 [4] with SBD [6]training data and validation set was used from reduced VOC12 validation dataset. The model scored mIOU of 68.1 percent in PASCAL VOC 2012 Segmentation challenge.33 pagesenBRAC University thesis are protected by copyright.
