Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for training an object embedding system. In one aspect, a method comprises providing selected images as input to the object embedding system and generating corresponding embeddings, wherein the object embedding system comprises a thumbnailing neural network and an embedding neural network. The method further comprises backpropagating gradients based on a loss function to reduce the distance between embeddings for same instances of objects, and to increase the distance between embeddings for different instances of objects.
