Abstract: A system and method for identifying a potential parking violation for a location includes storing and rating parking violation related data, and notifying a user, by a computing system communicating with a user's computing device, of the potential parking violation and how to avoid receiving the potential parking violation citation. The data is stored in a database and clustered by data types. The user's computing device is used to identify user type, location, and time. A user engagement panel is used to share and rate parking violation related data and notifications, and rewards are allocated to a user for contributing useful data. Highly rated data may be incorporated into the notifications. The data is analyzed to predict or infer a violation. A notification corresponding to a current location and user type are generated when violations are predicted.

Abstract: In some implementations, an image recognition system is capable of using an iterative multi-stage image matching procedure to improve the accuracy and/or reliability of matching a search image with a small number of distinctive feature points to reference images. In the first stage, the system compares a search template for the search image to reference templates of each image within the set of reference images. The system determines a best-matched reference image from among the reference images of the set of reference images. In the second stage, the system compares the hybrid search template to one or more reference templates of reference images that is not the best-matched reference image. The comparison can be used to either compute match scores for reference images corresponding to the one or more reference templates.
