Find your Needle: Small Object Image Retrieval via Multi-Object Attention Optimization

Michael Green, Matan Levy, Issar Tzachor +3

We address the challenge of Small Object Image Retrieval (SoIR), where the goal is to retrieve images containing a specific small object, in a cluttered scene. The key challenge in…
