Abstract: In an embodiment, an electronic processing system includes an image-processing circuit, a product-arrangement circuit, and a score circuit. The image-processing circuit is configured to receive an image of products disposed in a display structure having sections, to identify the sections, and to identify at least one respective product within each identified section. The product-arrangement circuit is configured to determine an arrangement of the identified products within the identified sections of the display structure, and to compare the determined arrangement to a product-arrangement template. And the score circuit is configured to generate a product-arrangement score in response to the comparing of the determined arrangement to the product-arrangement template.

Abstract: An embodiment of an electronic processing system includes an image-processing circuit, a pose circuit, and a score circuit. The image-processing circuit is configured to receive a captured image of at least one product disposed in a display structure, and to identify each of the at least one product in the captured image. The pose circuit is configured to determine a respective pose of each of the at least one product, and to compare the respective pose of each of the at least one product to a respective canonical pose of each of the at least one product. And the score circuit is configured to generate a pose score in response to a respective comparison for each of the at least one product. For example, such an electronic processing system can be configured to detect a respective improper pose of one or more products, and to generate a pose score that is related to the number of improper poses detected, and the average “distance” between each improper pose and the respective canonical pose (e.g.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system (100) for retrieving an image from image storage means, the system comprising: a retrieval unit (110) for retrieving a plurality of images from image storage means, on the basis of similarity between said images from image storage means and a query image, wherein the similarity is defined by a similarity function, and comprising a relevance unit (120) for computing values of relevance of images of the retrieved plurality of images on the basis of a value of a first attribute relating to the query image and values of a second attribute relating to the images of the retrieved plurality of images, and an update unit (130) for updating the similarity function on the basis of the computed values of relevance, and wherein the retrieval unit (110) is further adapted for retrieving the image from image storage means on the basis of the updated similarity function. The values of the first and second attributes are used by the retrieval unit to compute relevance values (e.g.
