We introduce our efficient instance matting framework guided by instance binary masks, structured into two parts. The first Sec. 3.1 details our novel architecture to maintain accuracy and efficiency. The second Sec. 3.2 describes our approach for ensuring temporal consistency across frames in video processing.

3.1. Efficient Masked Guided Instance Matting



In cross-attention (CA), Q and (K, V) originate from different sources, whereas in self-attention (SA), they share similar information.



Figure 2. Overall pipeline of MaGGIe. This framework processes frame sequences I and instance masks M to generate per-instance alpha mattes A′ for each frame. It employs progressive refinement and sparse convolutions for accurate mattes in multi-instance scenarios, optimizing computational efficiency. The subfigures on the right illustrate the Instance Matte Decoder and the Instance Guidance, where we use mask guidance to predict coarse instance mattes and guide detail refinement by deep features, respectively. (Optimal in color and zoomed view).


where {; } denotes concatenation along the feature dimension, and G is a series of sparse convolutions with sigmoid activation.
