Patent number: 11934995Abstract: Techniques for predicting a manufacturer and/or contents of a received package are described herein. Images of a package may be received from cameras. A visual vector for the package in a vector space of package attributes may be generated using the images. Physical attributes of the package may be received. A subset of candidate packages may be determined by comparing the physical attributes of a plurality of historically received packages to the physical attributes of the package. A ranking of the subset of candidate packages may be determined by identifying a distance in the vector space of the package attributes between a vector for the subset of candidate packages and the visual vector for the package. An identifier associated with a particular package of the ranked subset of candidate packages may be obtained. Data for the particular package may be retrieved from a database using the identifier.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2022Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Huinan Ren, Nicole Yoshino, Kristin Quel Lien, Abhishek Shrivastava, Vinit Dinesh Jain, Brian Gleadle, Ruslan Khmeliuk, Michael Allen Swift, Pushkar Naik
