A novel method is proposed to address the challenge of lifting multi-granular and view-inconsistent image segmentations into a hierarchical and 3D-consistent representation. The approach learns an ultrametric feature field within a Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) representing a 3D scene, allowing for segmentation structure revelation at different scales using different thresholds on feature distance. This method takes view-inconsistent multi-granularity 2D segmentations as input and produces a hierarchy of 3D-consistent segmentations as output. The method is evaluated on synthetic datasets with multi-view images and multi-granular segmentation, showcasing improved accuracy and viewpoint-consistency.

This paper introduces a way to make image segmentations consistent across different camera viewpoints. It uses a type of neural network called Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) to create a 3D representation of an image. The method can group pixels into hierarchical categories based on how similar they are, which helps to remove inconsistencies in the segmentation. This is useful for applications where images are taken from different angles and need to be analyzed together.
