Abstract

Methods, systems, an apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a storage device, for training an image classifier. A method includes receiving an image that includes a depiction of an object; generating a set of poorly localized bounding boxes; and generating a set of accurately localized bounding boxes. The method includes training, at a first learning rate and using the poorly localized bounding boxes, an object classifier to classify the object; and training, at a second learning rate that is lower than the first learning rate, and using the accurately localized bounding boxes, the object classifier to classify the object. The method includes receiving a second image that includes a depiction of an object; and providing, to the trained object classifier, the second image. The method includes receiving an indication that the object classifier classified the object in the second image; and performing one or more actions.
