Few-shot Object Localization

Existing few-shot object counting tasks primarily focus on quantifying the number of objects in an image, neglecting precise positional information. To bridge this research gap, this paper introduces the novel task of Few-Shot Object Localization (FSOL), which aims to provide accurate object positional information. This task achieves generalized object localization by leveraging a small number of labeled support samples to query the positional information of objects within corresponding images. To advance this research field, we propose an innovative high-performance baseline model. Our model integrates a dual-path feature augmentation module to enhance shape association and gradient differences between supports and query images, alongside a self-query module designed to explore the association between feature maps and query images. Experimental results demonstrate a significant performance improvement of our approach in the FSOL task, establishing an efficient benchmark for further research.
