Based on the implementation of ESE-Seg, eigencontours were applied to the instance segmentation task successfully. In this report, we incorporate eigencontours into the PolarMask network for instance segmentation. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm yields better results than PolarMask on two instance segmentation datasets of COCO2017 and SBD. Also, we analyze the characteristics of eigencontours qualitatively.
