However, there is a specific subfield that we wanted to focus on, that is, Image-Guided Object Detection. A detailed literature survey directed us towards a successful study called Simple Open-Vocabulary Object Detection with Vision Transformers (OWL-ViT) [1], which is a multifunctional complex model that can also perform image-guided object detection as a side function. In this study, some experiments have been conducted utilizing OWL-ViT architecture as the base model and manipulated the necessary parts to achieve a better one-shot performance. Code and models are available on GitHub.
