A learning model may provide a hierarchy of convolutional layers configured to perform convolutions upon image features, each layer other than a topmost layer convoluting the image features at a lower resolution to a higher layer, and each layer other than a bottommost layer returning the image features to a lower layer. Each layer fuses the lower resolution image features received from a higher layer with same resolution image features convoluted at the layer, so as to combine large-scale and small-scale features of images. Layers of the hierarchy may be substantially equal to a number of lateral convolutions at a bottommost convolutional layer. The bottommost convolutional layer ultimately passes the fused features to an attention mapping module, which utilizes two attention mapping pathways in combination to detect non-local dependencies and interactions between large-scale and small-scale features of images without de-emphasizing local interactions.
