Abstract. In this paper, we tackle the problem of performing efficient co-localization in images and videos. Co-localization is the problem of simultaneously localizing (with bounding boxes) objects of the same class across a set of distinct images or videos. Building upon recent stateof-the-art methods, we show how we are able to naturally incorporate temporal terms and constraints for video co-localization into a quadratic programming framework. Furthermore, by leveraging the Frank-Wolfe algorithm (or conditional gradient), we show how our optimization formulations for both images and videos can be reduced to solving a succession of simple integer programs, leading to increased efficiency in both memory and speed. To validate our method, we present experimental results on the PASCAL VOC 2007 dataset for images and the YouTube-Objects dataset for videos, as well as a joint combination of the two.
Joulin et al. REF propose a method to localize objects of the same class across a set of distinct images or videos.
