ZERO-SHOT OBJECT DETECTION METHOD COMPARISON AND ANALYSIS

Abstract Details

2019, Master of Computer Science, Miami University, Computer Science and Software Engineering.
Object detection is a popular research domain, however, it is a challenge to annotate imagery for object detection as each object within an image must be identified. We focus on an approach for object detection that allows classifiers to use less annotated data, called Zero- shot Detection (ZSD). The aim is to build an object detector that is trained on one set of classes (e.g., for which we have annotations), and that also performs well on novel categories of objects that were not annotated in its training set. Several recent studies have tackled Zero-shot Learning (ZSL) for image classification problems, but ZSD is more challenging. This thesis evaluates recently reported ZSD approaches in order to understand and explain where ZSD can be successful in an object detection framework. From our experiments, we show ZSD models are variant after training and perform differently on the same detection task. We also find the quantitative results cannot be the only factor that measures the success of the detection model because the visual outputs are also important.
