What kind of Baseline network you used in Ablation Studies

[JieZzzoo]

Thank you for your contribution to Salient Object Detection and for making the ACCoNet network code publicly available. I would like to ask you what kind of Baseline network you used in your Ablation Studies, the paper mentions that it is an Encode-Decode network but does not describe its network structure, is this Baseline network an existing salient object detection network, such as SegNet or U-Net as mentioned in the paper. Thanks again for contributing to the Salient Object Detection.

We use a Baseline network similar to SegNet/U-Net structure in the Ablation Studies. We remove the ACCoM, and replace the BAB with three conv layers.

That's a amazing idea for the Baseline network, I think I see what you mean, thanks again and looking forward to your new work.

Such a Baseline network is commonly used in SOD.
