Abstract:
In some embodiments, a method can include augmenting a set of images of collectables to generate a set of synthetic images of collectables. The method can further include combining the set of images of collectables and the set of synthetic images of collectables to produce a training set. The method can further include training a set of machine learning models based on the training set. Each machine learning model from the set of machine learning models can generate a grade for an image attribute from a set of image attributes. The set of image attributes can include an edge, a corner, a center, or a surface. The method can further include executing, after training, the set of machine learning models to generate a set of grades for an image of collectable not included in the training set.
