Abstract

Techniques disclose an incrementally expanding object detection model. An object detection tool identifies, based on an object detection model, one or more objects in a sequence of video frames. The object detection model provides an object space including a plurality of object classes. Each object class includes one or more prototypes. Each object is classified as being an instance of one of the object classes. Each identified object is tracked across at least one of the frames. The object detection tool generates a measure of confidence for that object based on the tracking. Upon determining that the measure of confidence exceeds a threshold, the object detection tool adds a prototype of the instance to the object detection model.
