Hi,
Is it possible to obtain the results corresponding to PSPNet when its trained with background as a class? I checked the forum and found a similar question here: https://competitions.codalab.org/forums/26986/5412/
Does it increase or decrease from 79.68 - which is calculated over only 9 classes?
Thank you
Background is considered while calculating mIoU in the competition, but it was omitted our paper. From our experience it usually increases the mIoU, but not necessarily all the time. Hope this answers your question.
Thank you!

1. The FloodNet paper performs supervised segmentation experiments, but the competition requires semi-supervised experiments.
2. The number of images in the competition is higher than the images used in FloodNet paper.
3. FloodNet paper does not consider Background to calculate mIoU while the competition considers Background class.
Hope this helps. Thank you!
