Abstract: Systems and methods for analyzing trends in image data is disclosed. A trend query is received relating to an object category and defining two or more groups of interest for which trend data is to be determined with a defined time period. Visual tokens of interest are identified relating to the object category for use in searching a token database. One or more image data sets are identified that are associated with each of the two or more groups of interest. Visual tokens are analyzed matching the visual tokens of interest that are associated with the identified image data sets to generate trend data for each of the two or more groups of interest for the defined period of time. An output is generated based on a comparison of the trend data generated for the two or more groups of interest for the defined period of time.
