Recently, advancements in deep learning-based superpixel segmentation methods have brought about improvements in both the efficiency and the performance of segmentation. However, a significant challenge remains in generating superpixels that strictly adhere to object boundaries while conveying rich visual significance, especially when cross-surface color correlations may interfere with objects. Drawing inspiration from neural structure and visual mechanisms, we propose a biological network architecture comprising an Enhanced Screening Module (ESM) and a novel Boundary-Aware Label (BAL) for superpixel segmentation. The ESM enhances semantic information by simulating the interactive projection mechanisms of the visual cortex. Additionally, the BAL emulates the spatial frequency characteristics of visual cortical cells to facilitate the generation of superpixels with strong boundary adherence. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach through evaluations on both the BSDS500 dataset and the NYUv2 dataset.
