In VQD,\na system is guided by natural language to localize a variable number of objects\nin an image. VQD is related to visual referring expression recognition, where\nthe task is to localize only one object. We describe the first dataset for VQD\nand we propose baseline algorithms that demonstrate the difficulty of the task\ncompared to referring expression recognition.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1904.02794v2","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1904.02794v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"referring-expression","task_name":"Referring Expression"},{"task_slug":"referring-expression-comprehension","task_name":"Referring Expression Comprehension"},{"task_slug":"visual-grounding","task_name":"Visual Grounding"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[{"slug":"vqdv1","name":"VQDv1","full_name":"Visual Query Detection v1"}],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":"https://syntology.ai/paper/1904.02794","atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=1904.02794","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
