We tackle the problem of learning object detectors without supervision. Differently from weakly-supervised object detection, we do not assume image-level class labels. Instead, we extract a supervisory signal from audio-visual data, using the audio component to teach the object detector. While this problem is related to sound source localisation, it is considerably harder because the detector must classify the objects by type, enumerate each instance of the object, and do so even when the object is silent. We tackle this problem by first designing a self-supervised framework with a contrastive objective that jointly learns to classify and localise objects. Then, without using any supervision, we simply use these self-supervised labels and boxes to train an image-based object detector. With this, we outperform previous unsupervised and weakly-supervised detectors for the task of object detection and sound source localization. We also show that we can align this detector to ground-truth classes with as little as one label per pseudo-class, and show how our method can learn to detect generic objects that go beyond instruments, such as airplanes and cats.

Our objective is to transform a video into a set of discrete audio-visual objects using self-supervised learning. To this end, we introduce a model that uses attention to localize and group sound sources, and optical flow to aggregate information ove
r time. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the audio-visual object embeddings that our model learns by using them for four downstream speech-oriented tasks: (a) multi-speaker sound source separation, (b) localizing and tracking speakers, (c) correcting misaligned audio-visual data, and (d) active speaker detection. Using our representation, these tasks can be solved entirely by training on unlabeled video, without the aid of object detectors. We also demonstrate the generality of our method by applying it to non-human speakers, including cartoons and puppets.Our model significantly outperforms other self-supervised approaches, and obtains performance competitive with methods that use supervised face detection.
In this paper, we propose a novel self-supervised representation learning method, Self-EMD, for object detection. Our method directly trained on unlabeled non-iconic image dataset like COCO, instead of commonly used iconic-object image dataset like I
mageNet. We keep the convolutional feature maps as the image embedding to preserve spatial structures and adopt Earth Movers Distance (EMD) to compute the similarity between two embeddings. Our Faster R-CNN (ResNet50-FPN) baseline achieves 39.8% mAP on COCO, which is on par with the state of the art self-supervised methods pre-trained on ImageNet. More importantly, it can be further improved to 40.4% mAP with more unlabeled images, showing its great potential for leveraging more easily obtained unlabeled data. Code will be made available.
We study how to leverage Web images to augment human-curated object detection datasets. Our approach is two-pronged. On the one hand, we retrieve Web images by image-to-image search, which incurs less domain shift from the curated data than other sea
rch methods. The Web images are diverse, supplying a wide variety of object poses, appearances, their interactions with the context, etc. On the other hand, we propose a novel learning method motivated by two parallel lines of work that explore unlabeled data for image classification: self-training and self-supervised learning. They fail to improve object detectors in their vanilla forms due to the domain gap between the Web images and curated datasets. To tackle this challenge, we propose a selective net to rectify the supervision signals in Web images. It not only identifies positive bounding boxes but also creates a safe zone for mining hard negative boxes. We report state-of-the-art results on detecting backpacks and chairs from everyday scenes, along with other challenging object classes.
Weakly Supervised Object Detection (WSOD) has emerged as an effective tool to train object detectors using only the image-level category labels. However, without object-level labels, WSOD detectors are prone to detect bounding boxes on salient object
s, clustered objects and discriminative object parts. Moreover, the image-level category labels do not enforce consistent object detection across different transformations of the same images. To address the above issues, we propose a Comprehensive Attention Self-Distillation (CASD) training approach for WSOD. To balance feature learning among all object instances, CASD computes the comprehensive attention aggregated from multiple transformations and feature layers of the same images. To enforce consistent spatial supervision on objects, CASD conducts self-distillation on the WSOD networks, such that the comprehensive attention is approximated simultaneously by multiple transformations and feature layers of the same images. CASD produces new state-of-the-art WSOD results on standard benchmarks such as PASCAL VOC 2007/2012 and MS-COCO.
This paper focuses on Semi-Supervised Object Detection (SSOD). Knowledge Distillation (KD) has been widely used for semi-supervised image classification. However, adapting these methods for SSOD has the following obstacles. (1) The teacher model serv
es a dual role as a teacher and a student, such that the teacher predictions on unlabeled images may be very close to those of student, which limits the upper-bound of the student. (2) The class imbalance issue in SSOD hinders an efficient knowledge transfer from teacher to student. To address these problems, we propose a novel method Temporal Self-Ensembling Teacher (TSE-T) for SSOD. Differently from previous KD based methods, we devise a temporally evolved teacher model. First, our teacher model ensembles its temporal predictions for unlabeled images under stochastic perturbations. Second, our teacher model ensembles its temporal model weights with the student model weights by an exponential moving average (EMA) which allows the teacher gradually learn from the student. These self-ensembling strategies increase data and model diversity, thus improving teacher predictions on unlabeled images. Finally, we use focal loss to formulate consistency regularization term to handle the data imbalance problem, which is a more efficient manner to utilize the useful information from unlabeled images than a simple hard-thresholding method which solely preserves confident predictions. Evaluated on the widely used VOC and COCO benchmarks, the mAP of our method has achieved 80.73% and 40.52% on the VOC2007 test set and the COCO2014 minval5k set respectively, which outperforms a strong fully-supervised detector by 2.37% and 1.49%. Furthermore, our method sets the new state-of-the-art in SSOD on VOC2007 test set which outperforms the baseline SSOD method by 1.44%.
