Logo Detection With No Priors

In recent years, top referred methods on object detection like R-CNN LIPS have implemented this task as a combination of proposal region generation and supervised classification on the proposed bounding boxes.Although this pipeline has achieved state-of-the-art results in multiple datasets, it has inherent limitations that make object detection a v
