Abstract:
A system and various methods for processing an image to produce a hierarchical image representation model, segment the image model using shape criteria to produce positive and negative training data sets as well as a search-space data set comprising shapes matched to a search query provided as input, and using the training data sets to train a machine learning model to improve recognition of shapes that are similar to an input query without being exact matches, to improve object recognition.
