A method for training a machine learning localization model to localize objects belonging to a given class within an image, the method comprising: receiving images each comprising objects of the given class; and for each image: receiving a heat map generated using the machine learning localization model; identifying proposals each corresponding to a potential object, each proposal having associated thereto an initial probability that the proposal corresponds to the potential object; for each proposal, correcting the initial probability using the heat map; selecting given ones of the proposals having a greatest corrected probability, thereby identifying object candidates; and calculating a loss for the machine learning localization model based on a location of the object candidates within the training image and the heat map; and providing the calculated loss to the machine learning localization model.
