Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing fast and accurate object detection and classification in images are described herein. In some examples, a computing device can receive an input image. The computing device can process the image, and generate a convolutional feature map. In some configurations, the convolutional feature map can be processed through a Region Proposal Network (RPN) to generate proposals for candidate objects in the image. In various examples, the computing device can process the convolutional feature map with the proposals through a Fast Region-Based Convolutional Neural Network (FRCN) proposal classifier to determine a class of each object in the image and a confidence score associated therewith. The computing device can then provide a requestor with an output including the object classification and/or confidence score.
