Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an object selection system that accurately detects and optionally automatically selects user-requested objects (e.g., query objects) in digital images. For example, the object selection system builds and utilizes an object selection pipeline to determine which object detection neural network to utilize to detect a query object based on analyzing the object class of a query object. In particular, the object selection system can identify both known object classes as well as objects corresponding to unknown object classes.
