Title: Object detection in images
Inventor: ZHE LIN
IPC: G06V10/764
Filed: 2019-08-22
Abstract: In implementations of object detection in images, object detectors are trained using heterogeneous training datasets. A first training dataset is used to train an image tagging network 202 to determine an attention map 208 of an input image for a target concept. A second training dataset is used to train a conditional detection network that accepts as conditional inputs the attention map and a word-embedding of the target concept. Despite the conditional detection network being trained with a training dataset having a small number of seen classes (e.g., classes in a training dataset), it generalizes to novel, unseen classes by concept conditioning, since the target concept propagates through the conditional detection network via cite conditional inputs, thus influencing classification and region proposal. Hence, classes of objects that can be detected are expanded without the need to scale training databases to include additional classes.
