      The state-of-the-art object detectors today are unable to identify objects like a person wearing a shirt with a landscape printed on it or a man holding a painting. Objects that look like images whose sub-regions are replaced with another sub-image, are not correctly recognized. This will lead to accidents if these detectors are used in automated vehicles. We trained the object detectors on a new dataset with photoshopped images to solve this problem.
