A computer-implemented method is provided for image-based, self-guided object detection. The method includes receiving, by a processor device, a set of images. Each of the images has a respective grid thereon that is labeled regarding a respective object to be detected using grid level label data. The method further includes training, by the processor device, a grid-based object detector using the grid level label data. The method also includes determining, by the processor device, a respective bounding box for the respective object in each of the images, by applying local segmentation to each of the images. The method additionally includes training, by the processor device, a Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (RCNN) for joint object localization and object classification using the respective bounding box for the respective object in each of the images as an input to the RCNN.
