System and method for clustering products by combining attribute data with image recognition

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for categorizing items based on attributes of the item and a shape of the item, where the shape of the item is determined from an image of the item. An exemplary system configured as disclosed herein can receive a request to categorize an item, the item having a plurality of attributes, and receive an image of the item. The system can identify, via a processor configured to perform image processing, a shape of the item based on the image, and transform the plurality of attributes and the shape of the item, into a plurality of quantifiable values. The system can then categorize the item based on the quantifiable values.
