Abstract: A system and method for object instance localization in an image are disclosed. In the method, keypoints are detected in a target image and candidate regions are detected by matching the detected keypoints to keypoints detected in a set of reference images. Similarity measures between global descriptors computed for the located candidate regions and global descriptors for the reference images are computed and labels are assigned to at least some of the candidate regions based on the computed similarity measures. Performing the region detection based on keypoint matching while performing the labeling based on global descriptors improves object instance detection.
