Concealed object segmentation (COS) is a challenging task that involves localizing and segmenting those concealed objects that are visually blended with their surrounding environments. Despite achieving remarkable success, existing COS segmenters still struggle to achieve complete segmentation results in extremely concealed scenarios. In this paper, we propose a Hierarchical Coherence Modeling (HCM) segmenter for COS, aiming to address this incomplete segmentation limitation. In specific, HCM promotes feature coherence by leveraging the intra-stage coherence and cross-stage coherence modules, exploring feature correlations at both the single-stage and contextual levels. Additionally, we introduce the reversible re-calibration decoder to detect previously undetected parts in low-confidence regions, resulting in further enhancing segmentation performance. Extensive experiments conducted on three COS tasks, including camouflaged object detection, polyp image segmentation, and transparent object detection, demonstrate the promising results achieved by the proposed HCM segmenter.
