Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure provide for mechanisms for identification of objects in images using neural networks. A method of the disclosure includes: obtaining an image, representing each element of a plurality of elements of the image via an input vector of a plurality of input vectors, each input vector having one or more parameters pertaining to visual appearance of a respective element of the image, providing the plurality of input vectors to a first subnetwork of a neural network to obtain a plurality of output vectors, wherein each of the plurality of output vectors is associated with an element of the image, identifying, based on the plurality of output vectors, a sub-plurality of elements of the image as belonging to the image of the object, and determining, based on locations of the sub-plurality of elements, a location of an image of an object within the image.
