## Abstract (arXiv)

Detecting objects of interest in images was always a compelling task to automate. In recent years this task was more and more explored using deep learning techniques, mostly using region-based convolutional networks. In this project we propose an alternative semantic segmentation technique making use of Generative Adversarial Networks. We consider semantic segmentation to be a domain transfer problem. Thus, we train a feed forward network (FFNN) to receive as input a seed real image and generate as output its segmentation mask.
