Abstract
Object detection techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a plurality of images are received by a computing device. The plurality of images are analyzed by the computing device to detect whether the images include, respectively, a depiction of an object. If an object is found in a first image, the locations, angles and scales for object detection can be further restricted in a second one. If an object is not found in a first one of the image, different portions of a second one of the images are analyzed for object detection.
