Generating training data for object detection

Abstract:

A method for generating training data for object detection is provided. The method includes dividing an image into a plurality of sliced images. The image includes meta information for an object in the image, the meta information including bounding box information associated with a bounding box surrounding the object, and marker information for markers associated with the object, the markers being located within the bounding box. The method includes designating at least one sliced object image from among the plurality of sliced images, at least a portion of the bounding box overlapping with each of the respective sliced object images. The method also includes designating at least one training data image from among the designated sliced object images based on the marker information. The method also includes generating the training data from the designated training data images.
