Can a computer distinguish between the many objects in a photograph as effortlessly as the human eye? When humans look at an image, they can identify objects down to the last pixel. At Facebook AI Research (FAIR) we're pushing machine vision to the next stage — our goal is to similarly understand images and objects at the pixel level. Over the past few years, progress in deep convolutional neural
