Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are described herein for improving object detection frameworks. Proposed regions can be used to identify similar images from a novel image set. Once identified, a weighted average of the feature representations of the similar images and/or a probability distribution of the classification labels for those images can be generated. The weighted average of the feature representations and/or the probability distribution can be used to steer the predicted classification confidence and/or predicted bounding box coordinates of the object detection framework. The disclosed techniques can be easily integrated with the object detect framework to improve the accuracy of its predictions without adding additional trainable parameters so as to refrain from adding complexity to the learning process.
