Abstract

Fully annotated image dataset is required for supervised learning. However, the image labeling process is laborious and monotonous. In this paper, we focus on automatic image labeling in a given special category dataset. We propose to exploit the context aware category discovery for image labeling without any labeled examples. Firstly, the image is segmented based on a multiple segmentation algorithm. Secondly, these generated regions are clustered to find the category pattern based on the context of the dataset and the saliency. Thirdly, the object is localized based on the weakly supervised learning algorithm. To justify the effectiveness of the proposed method, the detection precision is employed to evaluate the performance of our approach. The experimental results demonstrate that our approach is effective and accurate to automatically label images.
