Mobile Real-time Video Segmentation

We use big convolution kernels with large strides of four and above to detect object features on the high-resolution RGB input frame. Convolutions for layers with a small number of channels (as it is the case for the RGB input) are comparably cheap, so using big kernels here has almost no effect on the computational costs.
