Example solutions provide saliency for anchor-based object detection, and include: performing, with an object detector, a first object detection process on an image, wherein the first object detection process employs a plurality of anchor boxes; identifying an object detection result for the image; determining, from among the plurality of anchor boxes, a first anchor box associated with the object detection result; and while limiting the object detector to the first anchor box, generating, with the object detector, a saliency map for the image. In some examples, the saliency map is used for selecting further training data for the object detector. In some examples, the saliency map comprises a gradient-based saliency map, and is used for auditing or debugging the object detector.
