Abstract
An object detection system for generating a probability distribution of the location of an object includes one or more processors and a memory in communication with the one or more processors. The memory includes an image acquisition module, a bounding box generator module, and a probability distribution generator module. The image acquisition module causes the one or more processors to obtain a two-dimension image displaying an object. The bounding box generator module causes the one or more processors to generate, using the two-dimensional image as an input, a bounding box of the object displayed in the two-dimensional image having a plurality of pixels. The probability distribution generator module causes the one or more processors to generate a probability distribution of a bounding box location for the object using a neural process using a pair of context points, a latent space, and a centered pixel location.
