Abstract:
A device may receive images identifying interiors of buildings and movable objects and unmovable objects located in the interiors, and may train a machine learning model with the images to generate a trained machine learning model. The device may receive an image identifying an interior portion of a building and objects located in the interior portion, and may process the image, with the trained machine learning model, to identify a movable object and an unmovable object. The device may disregard the movable object to generate an image in which data identifying the movable object has been disregarded, and may process the image in which the data identifying the movable object has been disregarded, with a visual positioning system, to determine a location of the user device in the interior portion of the building. The device may perform one or more actions based on the location of the user device.
