Weakly Supervised Object Detection (WSOD) is a task that detects objects in an image using a model trained only on image-level annotations.

… since weak supervision does not include count or location information, the most common ``argmax’’ labeling method often ignores many instances of objects.

… propose a novel multiple instance labeling method called object discovery.

… introduce a new contrastive loss under weak supervision where no instance-level information is available for sampling, called weakly supervised contrastive loss (WSCL).

WSCL aims to construct a credible similarity threshold for object discovery by leveraging consistent features for embedding vectors in the same class.

… achieve new state-of-the-art results on MS-COCO 2014 and 2017 as well as PASCAL VOC 2012, and competitive results on PASCAL VOC 2007.
