Generating metadata for image-based querying

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and computer program products for generating metadata for image-based querying are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes processing a query image against a database by applying a deep learning visual model to the query image and images contained within the database; retrieving a set of multiple images from the database based on the processing; identifying subsets of images among the set of multiple images by analyzing metadata attribute values of the set of multiple images and nearest neighbor distance values between the query image and the multiple images in the set; determining one or more items of metadata attributable to the query image by processing metadata of the subsets of images; and outputting, to a user, the items of metadata in response to the query image.
