RETRIEVING IMAGES THAT CORRESPOND TO A TARGET SUBJECT MATTER WITHIN A TARGET CONTEXT

Abstract:

Techniques are provided herein for retrieving images that correspond to a target subject matter within a target context. Although useful in a number of applications, the techniques provided herein are particularly useful in contextual product association and visualization. A method is provided to apply product images to a neural network. The neural network is configured to classify the products in the images. The images are associated with a context representing the combination of classified products in the images. These techniques leverage both seller-provided images of products and user-generated content, which potentially includes hundreds or thousands of images of the same or similar products as the seller-provided images. A graphical user interface is configured to permit a user to select the context of interest in which to visualize the products.
