Abstract
Methods for generating a deep neural net and for localizing an object in an input image, the deep neural net, a corresponding computer program product, and a corresponding computer-readable storage medium are provided. A discriminative counting model is trained to classify images according to a number of objects of a predetermined type depicted in each of the images, and a segmentation model is trained to segment images by classifying each pixel according to what image part the pixel belongs to. Parts and/or features of both models are combined to form the deep neural net. The deep neural net is adapted to generate, in a single forward pass, a map indicating locations of any objects for each input image.
