Accelerated object labeling using prior geometric knowledge

Abstract:

In an approach for propagating labels of objects in an image, a processor receives the image. A processor performs a normalization of the image. A processor runs the image through a pre-trained object detector. A processor receives a set of detected objects from the pre-trained object detector. A processor determines a width dimension and a height dimension of a bounding box for each detected object of the set of detected objects. A processor propagates a label for each instance of each detected object in the image with the respective bounding box using prior geometric knowledge of bounding box placement. A processor inverses the normalization of the labeled image. A processor outputs the labeled image.
