Abstract Single image segmentation based on scribbles is an important technique in several applications, e.g. for image editing software. In this paper, we investigate the scope of single image segmentation solely given the image and scribble information using both convolutional neural networks as well as classical model-based methods, and present three main findings: 1) Despite the success of deep learning in the semantic analysis of images, networks fail to outperform model-based approaches in the case of learning on a single image only. Even using a pretrained network for transfer learning does not yield faithful segmentations. 2) The best way to utilize an annotated data set is by exploiting a model-based approach that combines semantic features of a pretrained network with the RGB information, and 3) allowing the networks prediction to change spatially and additionally enforce this variation to be smooth via a gradient-based regularization term on the loss (double backpropagation) is the most successful strategy for pure single image learning-based segmentation.
