"Dataset-driven Unsupervised Object Discovery for Region-based Instance" by Zhongyan Zhang, Lei Wang et al.
Instance image retrieval could greatly benefit from discovering objects in the image dataset. This not only helps produce more reliable feature representation but also better informs users by delineating query-matched object regions. However, object classes are usually not predefined in a retrieval dataset and class label information is generally unavailable in image retrieval. This situation makes object discovery a challenging task. To address this, we propose a novel dataset-driven unsupervised object discovery framework. By utilizing deep feature representation and weakly-supervised object...
