Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We propose a method to identify the area in the image that corresponds to a user's text query. The input to the system is the image and the text representing the area. The output from the system is the bounding box (x, y, w, h), where (x, y) is the upper-left corner coordinates of the area, w is its width, and h is its height. We treat area prediction as a regression problem and train deep neural network model directly the input image and query text, eliminating the need for external candidate region prediction. In evaluation on the "ReferIt" dataset, provided by the University of North Carolina, our proposed approach achieves state-of-the-art performance, surpassing a baseline system that learns independent regressions model for each of the four parameters and the candidate generation and ranking approach of Hu et al.[2]
