HIERARCHICAL SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATIC CONTAINER TYPE RECOGNITION FROM IMAGES

Abstract:

Hierarchical systems and methods for automatic container type recognition from images are disclosed herein. An example embodiment includes a system for image analysis, comprising: a container recognition component; a character recognition component; and a 3D point cloud component; wherein the container recognition component is configured to receive an image and produce one of three outputs based on analysis of the image such that the output corresponds to either a container is identified, further analysis is performed by the character recognition component, or further analysis is performed by the 3D point cloud component.
