Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for generating labeled images. One of the methods includes selecting a plurality of candidate videos from videos identified in a response to a search query derived from a label for an object category; selecting one or more initial frames from each of the candidate videos; detecting one or more initial images of objects in the object category in the initial frames; for each initial frame including an initial image of an object in the object category, tracking the object through surrounding frames to identify additional images of the object; and selecting one or more images from the one or more initial images and one or more additional images as database images of objects belonging to the object category.
