Learning Deep Relationship for Object Detection

Abstract

SUMMARYObject detection has been a hot topic of image processing, computer vision and pattern recognition. In recent years, training a model from labeled images using machine learning technique becomes popular. However, the relationship between training samples is usually ignored by existing approaches. To address this problem, a novel approach is proposed, which trains Siamese convolutional neural network on feature pairs and finely tunes the network driven by a small amount of training samples. Since the proposed method considers not only the discriminative information between objects and background, but also the relationship between intraclass features, it outperforms the state-of-arts on real images.
