SAMPLING LATENT VARIABLES TO GENERATE MULTIPLE SEGMENTATIONS OF AN IMAGE

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating a plurality of possible segmentations of an image. In one aspect, a method comprises: receiving a request to generate a plurality of possible segmentations of an image; sampling a plurality of latent variables from a latent space, wherein each latent variable is sampled from the latent space in accordance with a respective probability distribution over the latent space that is determined based on the image; generating a plurality of possible segmentations of the image, comprising, for each latent variable, processing the image and the latent variable using a segmentation neural network having a plurality of segmentation neural network parameters to generate the possible segmentation of the image; and providing the plurality of possible segmentations of the image in response to the request.
